- •
Areas of deep transported cover are frustrating for mineral exploration.
- •
Permo-Carboniferous diamictites have been investigated as a sampling medium for mineral exploration.
- •
Heavy minerals of the unweathered diamictites are good for studying provenance.
- •
Weathered diamictites can be used to show the hydromorphic dispersion through cover.
