This is a map image layer which includes the datasets relevant to prospecting activity in Tasmania. The sub layers included are:<\/span><\/p>

  • Exploration Licences - areas covered by current exploration licences or exploration licence applications; prospectors require additional permissions to undertake prospecting in these areas.<\/span><\/p><\/li>

  • Mining Leases - areas covered by current mining leases or mining lease applications; prospectors require additional permissions to undertake prospecting in these areas.<\/span><\/p><\/li>

  • Fossicking Areas - declared fossicking areas, prospecting is not allowed in these areas but fossicking is. The two activities are similar but fossicking does not require a licence and cannot be undertaken for commercial gain.<\/span><\/p><\/li>

  • Prospecting Access - all the land area of Tasmania classified according to whether or not prospecting is allowed.<\/span><\/p><\/li><\/ul>
