Environmental geology for urban development - Tuggeranong, Australian Capital Territory

Geological and soils mapping and an assessment of groundwater conditions has been carried out to assist development planning in the new town of Tuggeranong, in the Australian Capital Territory. The rocks of the area are mainly volcanic rhyodacites and the depth of weathering is generally less than 15 m. Residual soils are mainly podzolic clays; transported soils range from partly cemented gravelly, sandy silts (slope- wash) to complex layered clays (alluvium). Foundation conditions are generally expected to be satisfactory in most areas for single-storey structures, and large buildings are expected to be founded within 5-10 m of the surface in the town centre area. Excavation conditions will be variable because of the irregular weathering profiles characteristic for the volcanic rocks. Groundwater occurs in fractured rock, colluvial, and alluvial aquifers, and could be used for irrigation in places. Groundwater seepage problems are associated with the pediplain basins, and some remedial drainage works are necessary. Sand deposits in the bed of the Murrumbidgee River constitute a major resource but supplies of rock aggregate will have to come from outside the area. The location of sanitary landfill sites will require detailed study to evaluate the risk of surface water and groundwater pollution.

AUSGeoid98 v.1.0 data files: Dumbleyung (si50-07)

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 Data format: AUSGeoid98 data files have a header record at the start of each file, to distinguish them from the superseded AUSGeoid93 data files. AUSGeoid98 data files show the geoid-ellipsoid separation to 3 decimal places, while the superseded AUSGeoid93 data files showed only 2 decimal places.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.

Chemostratigraphy of Kidson-1, Willara-1 and Samphire Marsh-1, Canning Basin, Western Australia: Report for Geoscience Australia

This report presents the results of an elemental and carbon and oxygen isotope chemostratigraphy study on three historic wells; Kidson-1, Willara-1 and Samphire Marsh-1, from the southern Canning Basin, Western Australia. The objective of this study was to correlate the Early to Middle Ordovician sections of the three wells to each other and to wells with existing elemental and carbonate carbon isotope chemostratigraphy data from the Broome Platform, Kidson and Willara sub-basins, and the recently drilled and fully cored stratigraphic Waukarlycarly 1 well from the Waukarlycarly Embayment.

Tasmanian Gravity Data (P199249), 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 Tasmanian Gravity Data (P199249) contains a total of 207 point data values acquired at a spacing between 250 and 750 metres. The data is located in TAS and were acquired in 1992, under project No. 199249 for None.

West Kimberley - Prince Regent - Montague, WA,2011 (P1236), 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 West Kimberley (Prince Regent - Montague - Charnley), WA,2011 survey were acquired in 2011 by the WA Government, and consisted of 145084 line-kilometres of data at a line spacing between 200m and 200m, and 50m 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.

L020 Seismic reflection traverse on west of Langey's Crossing, WA, 1955

As a contribution towards the assessment of the oil potential of the Canning Basin, the Bureau carried out
a seismic survey in July, 1955 along a traverse to the north-west of Lansey's Cross ing in the Kimberley Division of Western Australia. There is a considerable thickness of sedimentary rocks, probably exceeding 20,000 feet, in the nearby Fitzroy Basin, but little is known of the structure of the Canning Basin. The object of the survey was to obtain information on the thickness of the sedimentary rocks in this part of the Basin and on thc geologicul structure of the sedimentary rocks at depth.
The results show that near Langey's Crossing the thicknes s of the sedimentary rocks probably exceeds 16,000 feet and may exceed 20,000 feet. The traverse was oblique to the assumed. direction of the axes of the major structure in the basin and results indicate that it crosses the axis of what appears to be a broad syncline of low relief.

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.
