Description
The Northern Territory Geological Survey (NTGS) manages mineral exploration reports submitted according to the NT Mineral Titles Act. This dataset is a spatial index of available (open file) mineral exploration reports and data.
Exploration licences (EL's) and other mineral titles are included if any reports for that title are open file. Title polygons represent the boundaries on the date the mineral title was initially granted (Grant Effective/Start Date). Generally only the first annual report and the final report of an EL cover the entire initial granted title area. Second and subsequent annual reports, partial relinquishment reports and renewal reports usually cover only part of the initial granted area. Drilling, surface sampling and geophysical survey datasets submitted with the reports may be partially or completely duplicated during the title reporting lifecycle.
All available reports from ceased or historical titles and some reports from current titles that are older than 5 years are included. Additional reports are added as they are released.

Data Quality
Lineage:Boundaries of titles prior to 1999 were digitised from paper tenement maps with scales ranging from 1:50K to 1:250K. Boundaries of titles since 1999 are extracted from the digital Titles Administration Mapping System if open file reports exist. Mineral exploration licences are granted in one minute graticular blocks. Mining tenements are plotted from descriptions supplied by tenement holders. See STRIKE http://strike.nt.gov.au mineral titles layers for more information on data source.
This dataset was first released March 2017. Previously reports from historical titles only were accessible through the Historical Mineral Titles layer.
Positional Accuracy:Variable depending on data source and mapping date. Data is extracted from the Titles Administration Mapping System.
Attribute Accuracy:Mineral Title attributes (holder/s, dates and status) are extracted from the Titles Administration System (TAS). Open file report numbers are extracted from the Minerals Exploration Reports database (MEX).
Logical Consistency:Data and topology not checked
Completeness:Completeness of the dataset varies depending on title age and reporting history. Information on titles ceased since 1999 is generally complete. Reports from titles ceased prior to 1999 may be missing. Open filing of reports older than 5 years on current titles is in progress. Check approximately quarterly for additions.
