D. E. THOMAS MEDAL
The Thomas Medal commemorates David Evan Thomas, the well-known former head of the Victorian Geological Survey, who was famous for his detailed and precise geological mapping. This silver medal is offered each year for the best Honours or MSc thesis with a substantial field mapping component (including geophysical techniques), submitted at a Victorian university. The project does not have to have been carried out in Victoria.
