The Nirex geological archive was transferred to the BGS during 2000 and 2001. We agreed to retain the records for a minimum of 50 years as part of the NGR.
G-BASE is a major BGS project that surveyed the surface geochemistry of the entire UK. Soil and stream-sediment geochemistry data is available for south-west England as a standalone dataset.
