AUSGeoid98 v.1.0 data files: Glengarry (sg50-12)

AUSGeoid98 data files contain a 2 minute grid of AUSGeoid98 data covering the Australian region, which you can use to interpolate geoid-ellipsoid separations for the positions required.You can use your own interpolation software, or you can use Geoscience Australia's Windows Interpolation software (Winter). The data files are text files in a standard format that cover the same area as standard topographic map areas. Files covering both 1:250,000 (approximately 100 x 150 km) and 1:1,000,000 (approximately 400 x 600 km) map areas are available. There is a 4 minute overlap on all sides of each area. Data format: AUSGeoid98 data files have a header record at the start of each file, to distinguish them from the superseded AUSGeoid93 data files. AUSGeoid98 data files show the geoid-ellipsoid separation to 3 decimal places, while the superseded AUSGeoid93 data files showed only 2 decimal places. AUSGeoid98 deflections of the vertical were computed from the geoid-ellipsoid separation surface, while the AUSGeoid93 deflections of the vertical were computed from OSU91A.

Eulo 1:250 000, R502 historical topographic map

The R502 series of maps has been replaced by the National Topographic Map Series (NTMS). The R502 series consists of 542 map sheets and covers Australia at a scale of 1:250,000. It was compiled from aerial photography, but only about one quarter of the series was contoured. The standard sheet size is 1 degree of latitude by 1.5 degrees of longitude. Transverse Mercator map projection and Clark 1858 datum were used. Coverage of the country was completed in 1968.

GSNSW Exploration NSW Area E North Parkes thorium grid geodetic

The radiometric, or gamma-ray spectrometric method, measures the natural variations in the gamma-rays detected near the Earth's surface as the result of the natural radioactive decay of potassium (K), uranium (U) and thorium (Th). The data collected are processed via standard methods to ensure the response recorded is that due only to the rocks in the ground. The results produce datasets that can be interpreted to reveal the geological structure of the sub-surface. The processed data is checked for quality by GA geophysicists to ensure that the final data released by GA are fit-for-purpose.
This radiometric thorium grid has a cell size of 0.00121 degrees (approximately 124m) and shows thorium element concentration of the NSW DMR, Discovery 2000, 1994-95, AREA E, Northern Parkes in units of parts per million (or ppm). The data used to produce this grid was acquired in 1995 by the NSW Government, and consisted of 122000 line-kilometres of data at 250m line spacing and 60m terrain clearance.

A revised Proterozoic tectono-stratigraphy of the South Nicholson region, Northern Territory, Australia — insights from SHRIMP U-Pb detrital zircon geochronology

New SHRIMP U-Pb detrital zircon geochronology on Mesoproterozoic and Paleoproterozoic siliciclastic rocks from the South Nicholson region, in concert with recently acquired complementary regional geophysical datasets, has enabled comprehensive revision of the regional Proterozoic tectono-stratigraphy. The identification of analogous detrital zircon spectra between units deposited in half-graben hanging walls of major ENE-WSW trending extensional faults, the Benmara, Bauhinia, and Maloney-Mitchiebo faults, offers compelling evidence for regional tectono-stratigraphic correlation. Units sampled from the hanging walls of these faults are characterised by immature proximal lithofacies and host a small yet persistent population of ca 1640–1650 Ma aged zircon and lack Mesoproterozoic detritus, consistent with deposition coincident with extension during the River Extension event at ca 1640 Ma, an event previously identified from the Lawn Hill Platform in western Queensland. This finding suggests the hanging wall sequences are chrono-stratigraphically equivalent to the highly prospective sedimentary rocks of the Isa Superbasin, host to world-class sediment-hosted base metal deposits across western Queensland and north-eastern Northern Territory. Subsequent inversion of the extensional faults, resulted in development of south-verging thrusts, and exhumation of late Paleoproterozoic hanging wall siliciclastic rocks through overlying Mesoproterozoic South Nicholson Group rocks as fault propagated roll-over anticlines. These geochronology data and interpretations necessitate revision of the stratigraphy and the renaming of a number of stratigraphic units in the South Nicholson region. Accordingly, the distribution of the highly prospective late Paleoproterozoic units of the McArthur Basin, Lawn Hill Platform and Mount Isa Province is greatly expanded across the South Nicholson region. These findings imply that the previously underexplored South Nicholson region is a highly prospective greenfield for energy and mineral resources.

Northern Australia Hydrogeochemical Survey: groundwater as a tool for mineral and hydrocarbon prospectivity and environmental baselines

With the majority (80%) of the Australian’s solid geology overlain by regolith, groundwater is increasingly being investigated as an exploration tool to see through cover material, though few investigations have surveyed for regional hydrogeochemical trends and environmental baselines. In this study, as part of the Australian Government ‘Exploring for the Future’ Program and in collaboration with the Northern Territory Geological Survey, groundwater chemistry was utilised as a tool for passive sampling of underlying geology to detect hidden mineralisation and hydrocarbons as well as to build a regional baseline to inform environmental monitoring and decision making. 
Groundwater samples were collected from private bores in the Lake Woods (Caritat), Tennant Creek and McArthur River regions of the Northern Territory for a comprehensive suite of hydrogeochemical analyses and fingerprinting including: field physicochemical parameters (EC, pH, Eh, DO and T); major and trace elements; isotopes of δ18O and δD, DIC (δ13C) and dissolved strontium (87Sr/86Sr); dissolved hydrocarbon VFAs, BTEX, methane concentrations and methane isotopes (δ13C and δD).
Results of the current study show groundwater chemistry matches regional geological trends, demonstrating the capacity of hydrogeochemistry to reveal the chemistry of rocks under cover. Anomalous trace element concentrations from different regions are associated with different physicochemical parameter groupings indicating predictable patterns of trace element mobility related to the geological environment. Additionally, elevated Cu concentrations in groundwater are associated with elevated Cu concentrations in independent datasets of soil geochemistry (Bastrakov et al. 2018) and in machine learning Cu concentration predictions (Wilford et al. 2018). 
These initial results show regional hydrogeochemical sampling surveys can highlight trace element anomalies as well as provide an environmental background. By identifying the underlying chemical reactions, the results of this survey allow an interpretation of groundwater processes that can inform decision making with respect to groundwater use, mineralisation, hydrocarbons and the environment.
