Dickson rests on calcareous shales from the Silurian‑aged Canberra Formation, historically known as the "Limestone Plains". In the flatter parts of the suburb, these shales are overlain by Quaternary alluvium.
The suburb once hosted Canberra’s original aerodrome (1924‑1926) and later the Dickson Experiment Station, which operated during World War II focusing on crops and later soil and pasture research. These sites contributed to early aviation and agricultural experimentation in the region.
