Billions of tonnes of iron ore tailings are generated each year from the mining industry. Converting these toxic tailings into soil-like materials which can develop and sustain plant and microbial communities is critical for mine site remediation and improved environmental outcomes.

ANSTO is proud to host the Shorebirds Competition for the fourth year. This unique environmental poster competition is free to enter and offers over $4000 in prizes (insert link to prizes button) for students and schools!

With enhanced submicron spatial resolution, speed and contrast, the Micro-Computed Tomography beamline opens a window on the micron-scale 3D structure of a wide range of samples relevant to many areas of science including life sciences, materials engineering, anthropology, palaeontology and geology. MCT will be able to undertake high-speed and high-throughput studies, as well as provide a range of phase-contrast imaging modalities.

ANSTO operates a range of cobalt-60 gamma irradiators, providing the Australian community with a range of irradiation services for medical, health, industry, agriculture and research purposes.

Hot Isostatic Pressing supports advanced manufacturing by increasing a material's density and reducing porosity. This capability complements ANSTO’s extensive suite of instruments and techniques for characterising materials and final products.

ANSTO has a range of capabilities and expertise to support aerospace and space research.

Think Science! 2025 Summary and results

Since the discovery of superconducting Caintercalated graphite (CaC6) the intercalation of epitaxial graphene on SiC(0001) with Ca has been studied extensively in order to achieve superconductivity.

The Think Science! event encourages students to engage with the Science Inquiry Skills process as outlined in the Australian National Curriculum.

At ANSTO we understand that diverse teams produce better outcomes – and we value the merit that a diverse perspective can bring to the quality and outcomes of our work, and the way we get the job done.

ANSTO offers a broad range of programs and services to various industries and customers. Many of these services, including the Australian Nuclear Medicine Traceability program, are supported by online customer portals.
