CORIS360® Industry Applications
It is critical across many industries to identify and locate sources of radiation accurately and quickly. By accurately imaging radiation across the full energy range, CORIS360™ improves operational decision making across many industry settings.

Radioactive capsule goes missing in Australian outback
A tiny 8mm by 6mm radioactive capsule went missing in January 2023, somewhere along a 1400 kilometre journey from Rio Tinto’s Gudai-Darri iron ore mine to its final destination in Perth, Western Australia. Find out how ANSTO's CORIS360® technology identified the exact location of the missing source.
Plans to safely manage medical and research waste
ANSTO will make an application to the independent nuclear regulator, ARPANSA, to vary its license for its Interim Waste Store. The original operating license was approved in 2015, enabling the facility to hold what is called a TN-81 cask of intermediate-level radioactive waste that was safely repatriated from France in 2015.

Shorebirds & Wetlands Incursion outline and syllabus
Students are introduced to shorebirds and their wetland habitats. They encounter the incredible journeys of our migratory shorebirds and how they connect wetlands in a fun playground game. Students also participate in a hands-on adaptations activity and learn about environmental research conducted at ANSTO.
