The Australian and New Zealand International Scientific Drilling Consortium (ANZIC) is a collaborative research initiative that connects leading universities, government agencies, and scientists across Australia and New Zealand with global scientific drilling programs. Through international partnerships ANZIC provides access to cutting-edge drilling infrastructure, data, and samples from beneath the Earth’s surface and seafloor. This enables researchers to investigate fundamental questions about Earth’s history, structure, and dynamic processes, while fostering cross-disciplinary collaboration, training, and career-defining opportunities within the geoscience community.
