Gravity investigations of the Gosses Bluff impact structure, central Australia

Detailed gravity study gives significant evidence about the size, shape and nature of the Gosses Bluff structure and contributes to the conclusion of a multi-disciplinary study that the circular disturbance was produced by meteorite impact. Assessment of regional and residual gravity fields confirms the symmetrical circular gravity low of amplitude 4.4 mGal and radius 10.8 km centred at the focus of energy release determined from shatter cone orientations. Interpretation of the residual gravity field shows that the low is caused by near-surface low-density material consistent with the astrobleme hypothesis. The lack of a significant net mass excess or deficit thousands of metres deep under the Bluff, is evidence against igneous intrusion or salt diapirism. The extent of arcuate troughs of low-density breccia covered by superficial deposits is shown in the gravity field. Re-interpretation of an accurately compiled regional gravity field suggests that the gravity gradient parallel to the northern margin of the Amadeus Basin should be re-appraised. The residual field of the region around the Bluff provides new data on structures of significance in the exploration for oil and gas. Gravity data do not support the existence of a deep-seated Gardiner-Tyler Anticline passing under the Bluff, as has been suggested from seismic data, in a coincidence pointed out by opponents of the impact hypothesis.

Summary Of Data And Results Surat Basin, Queensland AAD Winnathoola No 1 AAD Kooringa No 1 AAD Pleasant Hills No 1 Of Associated Australian Oilfields NL

A.A.O. Winnathoola No. I, located approximately 8 miles north-west of A.A.O. Combarngo No. I, and 22 miles south-east of Roma in Queensland, was drilled by Mines Administration Pty Limited for Associated Australian Oilfields N.L., to a total depth of 5342 feet. Drilling commenced on 1st September, 1961 and was completed on 22nd September, 1961. A full programme of logging, testing, and coring was undertaken.
The well penetrated 4919 feet of Mesozoic sediments, 207 feet of Permian sediments, and 216 feet of of sediments of (?) Devonian Timbury Hills Formation. 
Two drillstem tests were carried out. The first tested the interval 4521 to 4465 feet (basal Jurassic sands) for 120 minutes and yielded a flow of gas at the rate of 616 Mcf/D. The second tested the interval 5342 to 5035 feet (base of Permian) and yielded a trace of gas.
The stratigraphic drilling operation at A.A.O. Winnathoola No. 1 was subsidized under the Petroleum Search Subsidy Act 1959 for the section below the Jurassic Injune Creek Beds to total depth.

Seismic line 1 - Birksgate Gravity (P199303), gravity point data

Gravity data measures small changes in gravity due to changes in the density of rocks beneath the Earth's surface. 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 Seismic line 1 - Birksgate Gravity (P199303) contains a total of 414 point data values acquired at a spacing of 235 metres. The data is located in SA and were acquired in 1993, under project No. 199303 for Australian Geological Survey Organisation (AGSO).

AUSGeoid98 v.1.0 data files:  (sc51-08)

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.

Guide to AGSOREFS: AGSO's shared bibliographic reference database

AGSOREFS is a shared bibliographic database designed to serve two main purposes.  First, it is intended to serve as a single reference pool for all AGSO relational geoscience databases, replacing a number of earlier reference systems.  Its standardised references can be displayed from any Oracle database via a unique reference ID.  Second, it is designed to function as a pooled reference system for all AGSO staff members.  Users can select from it the references they want in their private lists, and can attach their own IDs and keywords.
The menus, screen forms and reports used to input and view references, keywords, etc., are described in detail.  Definitions of most fields in the database are given in some depth under descriptions of the screen forms - providing, in effect, a comprehensive data dictionary of the database. The database schema, with all definitions of tables, views and indexes is listed in an appendix to the guide.  Instructions are given in a second appendix on how to parse and bulk-load references from documents and other databases.

Oceanic Shoals Commonwealth Marine Reserve - Chlorophyll a, b and c and phaeophytin a concentrations in seabed sediments.

This resource contains geochemistry data for the Oceanic Shoals Commonwealth Marine Reserve (CMR) in the Timor Sea collected by Geoscience Australia during September and October 2012 on RV Solander (survey GA0339/SOL5650). This datset comprises chlorophyll a, b and c and phaeophytin a concentrations from the upper 2 cm of seabed sediments. The Oceanic Shoals Commonwealth Marine Reserve survey was undertaken as an activity within the Australian Government's National Environmental Research Program Marine Biodiversity Hub and was the key component of Research Theme 4 - Regional Biodiversity Discovery to Support Marine Bioregional Plans. Hub partners involved in the survey included the Australian Institute of Marine Science, Geoscience Australia, the University of Western Australia, Museum Victoria and the Museum and Art Gallery of the Northern Territory. Data acquired during the survey included: multibeam sonar bathymetry and acoustic backscatter; sub-bottom acoustic profiles; physical samples of seabed sediments, infauna and epibenthic biota; towed underwater video and still camera observations of seabed habitats; baited video observations of demersal and pelagic fish, and; oceanographic measurements of the water column from CTD (conductivity, temperature, depth) casts and from deployment of sea surface drifters. Further information on the survey is available in the post-survey report published as Geoscience Australia Record 2013/38: Nichol, S.L., Howard, F.J.F., Kool, J., Stowar, M., Bouchet, P., Radke, L.,

Mackay - Mackay 1, NT, 1998 (P1005), magnetic line data, AWAGS levelled

Total magnetic intensity (TMI) data measures variations in the intensity of the Earth's magnetic field caused by the contrasting content of rock-forming minerals in the Earth crust. Magnetic anomalies can be either positive (field stronger than normal) or negative (field weaker) depending on the susceptibility of the rock. The data 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.
 These line dataset from the Mackay, NT, 1998 survey were acquired in 1998 by the NT Government, and consisted of 165347 line-kilometres of data at 400m line spacing and 60m terrain clearance. To constrain long wavelengths in the data, an independent data set, the Australia-wide Airborne Geophysical Survey (AWAGS) airborne magnetic data, was used to control the base levels of the survey data. This survey data is essentially levelled to AWAGS.
