This trip will explore the geology and Fe-Ti-V mineralisation of the giant Windimurra Intrusion and associated platinum-group element prospects. The second half of the trip will visit the Narndee Igneous Complex<\/span> of the Boodanoo Suite; one of few layered intrusions globally hosting primary amphiboles. The trip will end with a visit to the Boogardie Orbicular Granite<\/span> outcrop.<\/p>\n PPE requirements for this trip include: (1) long sleeve shirts (high vis if available but not necessary); (2) long trousers; (3) sturdy hiking boots (steel toes not essential); (4) safety glasses; (5) hard hats (we will look to provide these to those travelling to Perth).<\/p>\n 23rd to 27th June<\/span>, 20 maximum attendees<\/i>.<\/p>\n Cost $1700 AUD (some meals included and delegates will leave from, and return to, Perth)<\/em><\/p>\n Some of the field stops are outlined in the linked field guide<\/a><\/p>\n Trip leader(s): Steve Barnes (CSIRO), Katy Evans (Curtin U)<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n The mafic-ultramafic intrusions of the Western Pilbara Craton have been explored for nickel-sulphide and platinum-group element occurrences for several decades. This trip will visit the nickel-sulphide occurrence at the taxitic Andover Intrusion<\/span>, explore the geology and mineralisation of the layered Munni Munni Intrusion<\/span>, and the komatiite occurrence at Ruth Well<\/span>. Time will also be spent visiting local rock art sites and learning about country through the eyes of local traditional owners.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n 22nd to 27th June 2026, 20 maximum attendees.<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n Cost $1400 AUD (meals not included and delegates to arrange own flights to and from Karratha arriving by afternoon of 22nd June and departing any time on the 27th<\/strong><\/span>)<\/em><\/p>\n There will be opportunities for delegates to attend within-conference excursions. Registrants will pick their preferred field trip day (Tuesday or Thursday) and will do both trips on that day. This means that delegates will have one free day to hold meetings or explore Perth.

These include Ti-V mineralisation from layered intrusions in the Musgraves Province and Youanmi Terrane, magmatic sulfide occurrences from the Kimberley region and emerging PGE prospects in the Western Yilgarn Province.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The Perth Mint (discounts available for registrants)<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n The Perth Mint Gold Tour<\/strong> includes a fascinating live gold pour, the world\u2019s largest gold coin and a guided walk through the Perth Mint\u2019s world-class exhibition.<\/p>\n Enter code<\/strong> ISMUMS2026<\/strong> <\/span>when booking online or provide the code at Reception when booking in person for 50% off entry<\/strong> <\/span>to The Perth Mint Gold Tour.<\/p>\nPre-Conference Field Trips<\/h2>\n
