The Queenstown-Zeehan-Rosebery area is geologically complex. It lies on a belt of folded Ecocambrian and early Palaeozoic rocks which were deposited in the Dundas Trough, a rift structure which developed between the metamorphosed Precambrian rocks of the Cradle Mountain- Frenchmans Cap area ( Tyennan Nucleus ) to the east and the relatively unmetamorphosed Proterozoic rocks of t he Rocky Cape Geanticline to the west .

The Royal Society of Tasmania acknowledges, with deep respect, the traditional owners of this land, and the ongoing custodianship of the Aboriginal people of Tasmania. The Society pays respect to Elders past, present and emerging. We acknowledge that Tasmanian Aboriginal Peoples have survived severe and unjust impacts resulting from invasion and dispossession of their Country. As an institution dedicated to the advancement of knowledge, the Royal Society of Tasmania recognises Aboriginal cultural knowledge and practices and seeks to respect and honour these traditions and the deep understanding they represent.
On 15 February 2021, the Royal Society of Tasmania offered a formal Apology to the Tasmanian Aboriginal people.
