How to Use the Records

A reference microfiche copy (NTRS 2576) is available for use in the Northern Territory Library.

Function / Content

This series consists of a jacketed master microfilm copy of books of gold claim plans. The original volumes are included in NTRS 4318. The copying of F906 - now processed as NTRS 4318 was undertaken to assist research use of the information and to ensure preservation of the original plans. Each plan was prepared by a licensed surveyor and showed the boundaries of the claim (application), natural features, buildings and data points. Then, each plan was certified by the surveyor to show that he had personally made the survey, and that the boundaries were shown correctly marked on the ground in accordance with instructions to Licensed Surveyors under ACT 388 of 1886. The plan was certified correct by the Chief Mining Warden. Any alterations for the claim were also noted on the plan by the agency recording. Plans include information on the Mineral Lease Number (where applicable), Location, Section Number, Area, Application Number, and Scale.
