Paterson TEMPEST AEM Survey, Western Australia, 2010 Final Inversion Data and Conductivity Models

Airborne Electromagnetic data are being acquired by Geoscience Australia in areas considered to have potential for uranium or thorium mineralisation under the Australian Government's Onshore Energy Security Program (OESP). The surveys have been managed and interpreted by Geoscience Australia's Airborne Electromagnetic Acquisition and Interpretation project. In contrast to industry style deposit scale investigations, these surveys are designed to reveal new geological information at regional scale. The Paterson airborne electromagnetic data were acquired at line spacings of between one and six kilometres, a total of 28 200 line km and covers an area of 47 600 km2. 
The outcomes of the Paterson AEM survey include mapping of subsurface geological features that are associated with unconformity-related, sandstone-hosted and palaeovalley-hosted uranium mineralisation. The data are also capable of interpretation for other commodities including metals and potable water as well as for landscape evolution studies. The improved understanding of the regional geology resulting from the Paterson survey results will be of considerable benefit to mining and mineral exploration companies. 
Phase-1 data, that is, contractor quality-controlled and quality-assessed data, were released during 2009. Phase-2 data, that is Geoscience Australia layered earth inversion (GA-LEI) data and derived products, are included in this data release. The data and products described in this report are contained on the accompanying DVD. 
The main products from the AEM survey are conductivity depth slices and sections, conductance grids and an AEM Depth of Investigation grid. The data is provided in formats which can be viewed on most computers systems. They include, JPEG (.jpg) with associated world files for easy use in geographic information system (GIS) packages, ER Mapper grids (.ers), ESRI shape files (.shp) of the flight path, and point-located ASCII data with relevant metadata for derived products.

Geology of the Georgetown

These data are a digital representation of information depicted on the printed map of the Georgetown 1:250 000 Geological Series produced by AGSO and the Geological Survey of Queensland (GSQ) in 1985 (1st edition).
Data present include geological polygons (litho-stratigraphic units), linear structural features (faults, dykes, folds, trends, lineaments etc), and point features (mines, structural points etc). Polygons have a range of attributes extracted from each individual map including unit name, age and lithological description, while lines and points are feature coded according to the AGSO publication 'Symbols Used On Geological Maps' (BMR 1989). A standard look-up table of AGSO geological codes and associated descriptions is available (see ADDITIONAL METADATA).
The data has gradually evolved from elementary CAD quality data into its present topologically structured GIS format, and hence has many imperfections and inconsistencies. Data has undergone rigorous validation and testing that includes over 80 different tests. See ADDITIONAL METADATA for more information on the data standards used.

Gawler Block (Port Augusta), SA, 1975 (75SA01) (74io) (P426), 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 Gawler Block (Port Augusta), SA, 1975 (75SA01) (74io) survey were acquired in 1975 by the SA Government, and consisted of 12693 line-kilometres of data at 1500m line spacing and 150m 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.

Summary Of Data And Results Bonaparte Gulf Basin Western Australia Bonaparte No. 1 And No. 2 Wells Of Alliance Oil Development Australia No Liability

Bonaparte No. 1 Well, located approximately 52 miles north-east of Wyndham, in the Bonaparte Gulf Basin of Western Australia, was drilled by Reading and Bates (Australia) Pty Ltd for Alliance Oil Development Australia No Liability to total depth of 10,530 feet. Drilling commenced on 18th July, 1963, was suspended at 10,283 feet on 19th December, 1963, resumed on 25th April, 1964, and was completed on 4th June, 1964. A full programme of logging, coring, and testing was undertaken.
The well penetrated the Upper Carboniferous Point Spring Sandstone from surface to 638 feet; the Lower Carboniferous Tanmurra Formation to 1630 feet, and Milligans Beds to 7480 feet; the Lower Carboniferous to Upper Devonian Burt Range Formation Equivalent to 9492 feet; and the Upper Devonian Cockatoo Sandstone Equivalent to 10,530 feet, total depth. An angular unconformity occurred at the base of the Milligans Beds.
Of the twenty drillstem tests conducted during the drilling operation, three yielded fresh water from the Tanmurra Formation, and one yielded gas-cut salt water from the interval 5627 to 5696 feet in the Milligans Beds. Four tests were misruns, and twelve obtained no recovery other than drilling fluid. The well was plugged and abandoned as a dry hole on 6th June, 1964.
The stratigraphic drilling operation at Bonaparte No. 1 Well was subsidized under the Petroleum Search Subsidy Act 1959-1961, from surface to total depth.

Philippines Marine Seismic Survey Project Cruise Report : Project 123.03 (Survey 109)

During March to May 1992, the Australian Bureau of Mineral Resources (BMR)and the Philippine Office of Energy Affairs (OEA) conducted a joint marineseismic and sniffer survey in four Philippine offshore sedimentary basins. Theproject was funded by the Australian International Development AssistanceBureau (AIDAB), and the survey was conducted using the Australiangovernment's geoscience research vessel Rig Seismic. A total of 2750 km of192-channel seismic data, plus geochemical sniffer, gravity, magnetic andbathymetric data was obtained jointly. This comprised 580 km in the NEPalawan Shelf, 730 km over the Cuyo Platform, 490 km in Tayabas Bay, and950 km in Ragay Gulf. Because of the extensive fishing activities at night time,particularly in Ragay Gulf, acquisition of seismic data after dark was abandonedin the latter part of the survey. During these hours the geochemical sniffer program was continued over identified anomalies, and an additional 900 km of sniffer, gravity and bathymetry data were recorded.
Although not a lot can be deduced before the seismic data are processed, theship-board seismic monitors show plenty of structuring, and deep depocentreswith up to 4 seconds of stratified section. Because the weather during thesurvey period was very calm and therefore conducive to the collecting of low-noise data, the quality of the processed sections is expected to be excellent.
Geochemical anomalies were recognised in the NE Palawan Shelf and in RagayGulf. These were particularly significant in Ragay Gulf and were related to: (1)previously identified prospects (ie R-1 and R-2 in the 0EA-World Bank Report,and the Alibijaban prospect identified by Far East Resources); (2) faults; and (3)deep diapir structures. They fall into two distinct anomaly types: type 1 is
characterised by high methane, ethane and propane with traces of butane andpentane, indicating dry to wet thermogenic gas; type two has high methane andtraces of C2+, indicating very dry gas.
In order to better understand the flux rate of hydrocarbon release and thecomponent fractionation and magnitude of the source of the seep, Ragay Gulfwas revisited after the seismic shooting was completed. Here, eightgeochemical vertical profiles were recorded and 28 gas samples collected forisotope analysis. In one example, hydrocarbons were concentrated under thethermocline at about 140 m water depth.
The newly acquired data will be processed in BMR, integrated with existing seismicand well data from previous industry sources, interpreted and analysed for petroleumpotential. The final analysis, together with basic data, will then be presented to theexploration industry, initially in the Philippines and Australia, and laterinternationally, in order to promote further exploration.

Explanatory notes on layered geology maps, eastern Queensland 2020-2022

Geoscience Australia’s Exploring for the Future (EFTF) program provides precompetitive information to inform decision-making by government, community and industry on the sustainable development of Australia's mineral, energy and groundwater resources. By gathering, analysing and interpreting new and existing precompetitive geoscience data and knowledge, we are building a national picture of Australia’s geology and resource potential. This leads to a strong economy, resilient society and sustainable environment for the benefit of all Australians. This includes supporting Australia’s transition to net zero emissions, strong, sustainable resources and agriculture sectors, and economic opportunities and social benefits for Australia’s regional and remote communities. The Exploring for the Future program, which commenced in 2016, is an eight year, $225m investment by the Australian Government.

This record contains geological notes on layered geology interpretation of twenty-nine 1:250 000 Sheet areas in eastern Queensland. The geology maps generated as part of this work were not released as a separate product but incorporated into the national layered geology product of Sanchez et al. (2024). There are five layers interpreted; pre-Neoproterozoic, Neoproterozoic, Paleozoic, Mesozoic and Cenozoic. Preparation of these layers involved figuratively peeling off successively older rocks and identifying and outlining the rocks thereby revealed. The notes provide comments on the rocks comprising each layer, and explain how the identity of the revealed rocks was arrived at where this is not obvious. The Cenozoic time slice was extracted from the 1:1 000 000 scale outcrop geology (Raymond et al., 2012) after removing the surficial deposits and without further interpretation.&nbsp;
