Geoscience Australia and Geological Survey of Queensland Surat and Bowen Basins Groundwater Surveys Hydrochemistry Dataset (2009-2011)

Recent national and state assessments have concluded that sedimentary formations that underlie or are within the Great Artesian Basin (GAB) may be suitable for the storage of greenhouse gases. These same formations contain methane and naturally generated carbon dioxide that has been trapped for millions of years. The Queensland government has released exploration permits for Greenhouse Gas Storage in the Bowen and Surat basins.
          An important consideration in assessing the potential economic, environmental, health and safety risks of such projects is the potential impact CO2 migrating out of storage reservoirs could have on overlying groundwater resources. The risk and impact of CO2 migrating from a greenhouse gas storage reservoir into groundwater cannot be objectively assessed without knowledge of the natural baseline characteristics of the groundwater within these systems. Due to the phase behaviour of CO2, geological storage of carbon dioxide in the supercritical state requires depths greater than 800m, but there are no hydrochemical studies of such deeper aquifers in the prospective storage areas. 
          Geoscience Australia (GA) and the Geological Survey of Queensland (GSQ), Queensland Department of Mines and Energy, worked collaboratively under the National Geoscience Agreement (NGA) to characterise the regional hydrochemistry of the Denison Trough and Surat Basin and trialled different groundwater monitoring strategies.  The output from this Project constitutes part of a regional baseline reference set for future site-specific and semi-regional monitoring and verification programmes conducted by geological storage proponents. The dataset provides a reference of hydrochemistry for future competing resource users.

Building Survey in the Melbourne Central Business District (CBD)

Knowledge of the nature of buildings within CBD areas is fundamental to a broad range of decision making
processes, including planning, emergency management and the mitigation of the impact of natural hazards.
To support these activities, Geoscience Australia has developed a building information system called the
National Exposure Information System (NEXIS) which provides information on buildings across Australia.
Most of the building level information in NEXIS is statistically derived, but efforts are being made to include
more detailed information on the nature of individual buildings, particularly in CBD areas. This is being achieved in Melbourne through field survey work.

Triassic petroleum systems on the central North West Shelf – Learnings from the Greater Phoenix area seismic mapping and geochemical studies

The greater Phoenix area in the Bedout Sub-basin has experienced recent exploration success on Australia’s North West Shelf (NWS). Oil and gas discoveries in the Triassic reservoirs of the Keraudren Formation and Locker Shale have revived interest in mapping the distribution and lateral facies variation of the Triassic succession from the Bedout Sub-basin into the adjacent underexplored Beagle and Rowley sub-basins. This multi-disciplinary study integrating structural architecture, sequence stratigraphy, palaeogeography and geochemistry has mapped the spatial and temporal distributions of Triassic source rocks on the central NWS. The Lower‒Middle Triassic palaeogeography is dominated by a deltaic system building from the Bedout Sub-basin into the Beagle Sub-basin. The oil sourced and reservoired within the Lower‒Middle Triassic sequences at Phoenix South 1 is unique to the Bedout Sub-basin, compared to other oils along the NWS. Its mixed land-plant and algal biomarker signature is most likely sourced locally by fluvial-deltaic mudstones within the TR10‒TR14 or TR15 sequences and represents a new petroleum system on the NWS. A Middle Triassic marine incursion is recorded in the Bedout Sub-basin with the development of a carbonate platform while in the Rowley Sub-basin, volcanics have been penetrated at the top of the thick Lower‒Middle Triassic sediment package. The Late Triassic palaeogeographic map suggests a carbonate environment in the Rowley Sub-basin distinct to the clastic-dominated fluvial-deltaic environment in the Beagle Sub-basin. This information combined with results of well-based geochemical analyses highlights the potential for hydrocarbon generation within the Upper Triassic in these sub-basins.

Great Artesian Basin - Rolling Downs Aquitard -  Thickness and Extent

The Rolling Downs Aquitard - Thickness and Extent data set, is one of a set that represents the hydrostratigraphic units of the Great Artesian Basin, which include five major aquifers, four intervening aquitards, and the Cenozoic cover to the GAB.
There are five layers in the Rolling Downs Aquitard map data.
A: Formation Extent
B: Outcrop extent
C: Isopach Raster
D: Isopach Contours
E: Data Point Locations
The datasets have been derived from the lithostratigraphic intercepts in drillhole data from petroleum exploration wells, water bores, and stratigraphic wells. Seismic correlation and assessment of hydrogeological character based on electrofacies have not been used. The working datasets for this study has been derived primarily from the following databases:

PEPS-SA (Petroleum Exploration and Production System - South Australia) (Department of Primary Industries and Regions SA, 2011)
WaterConnect Groundwater database (Govt. of SA, 2011)
QPED (Queensland Petroleum exploration database) (Geological Survey of Queensland, 2010).
GABLOG (Great Artesian Basin Well Log Dataset) (Habermehl, 2001)
Additional supplementary information was derived from published reports listed in the following section.

This is a regional interpretation for mapping at approximately 1:1 000 000 to produce a broad scale overview, and examination of small areas by collecting extra data is most likely to produce results that differ from this regional interpretation.

Summary of results. Joint GSQ_GA Geochronology Project, Peralkaline Magmatic Systems and Northeast Queensland Deposits projects, 2023_2024

This Record presents 16 new Sensitive High Resolution Ion Micro Probe (SHRIMP) U-Pb zircon results obtained under the auspices of the Geological Survey of Queensland-Geoscience Australia (GSQ-GA) National Collaborative Framework (NCF) geochronology project in 2023-2024. These data were collected in support of the Peralkaline Magmatic Systems Project and the Northeast Queensland Deposits Project led by the GSQ. Cenozoic felsic igneous rocks in Queensland occur in scattered localities between Mackay and the southern Border Ranges and as far west as areas around Emerald. These rocks are primarily associated with eroded central volcanoes and exhibit well-defined age progression resulting from movement of the Australian plate over a mantle plume during the Cenozoic (see Cohen et al., 2013a, b). The location and existing K-Ar and Ar-Ar age data for the central volcanoes show a strong younging to the south, extending from Cape Hillsborough (ca. 33 Ma) through Nebo, Peak Range and Springsure to Buckland (ca. 27 Ma), forming the northernmost part of the Cosgrove Hotspot Track (Davies et al., 2015). Existing geochronology for units along this track is dominated by K-Ar and Ar-Ar data with only a few units having reconnaissance-quality U-Pb zircon ages. Our study aimed to produce new, high-quality emplacement ages to compare with existing data, constrain the ages of undated units and test correlations, and to identify any inheritance that could help to understand their origin.
