Streaky Bay 1:250 000 topographic map

This map is part of the series that covers the whole of Australia at a scale of 1:250 000 (1cm on a map represents 2.5 km on the ground) and comprises 513 maps. This is the largest scale at which published topographic maps cover the entire continent. Each standard map covers an area of 1.5 degrees longitude by 1 degree latitude or about 150 kilometres from east to west and 110 kilometres from north to south. There are about 50 special maps in the series and these maps cover a non-standard area. Typically, where a map produced on standard sheet lines is largely ocean it is combined with its landward neighbour. These maps contain natural and constructed features including road and rail infrastructure, vegetation, hydrography, contours (interval 50m), localities and some administrative boundaries. The topographic map and data index shows coverage of the sheets. Product Specifications Coverage: The series covers the whole of Australia with 513 maps. Currency: Ranges from 1995 to 2009. 95% of maps have a reliability date of 1994 or later. Coordinates: Geographical and either AMG or MGA (post-1993) Datum: AGD66, GDA94, AHD. Projection: Universal Traverse Mercator (UTM) Medium: Paper, flat and folded copies.

Widgiemooltha South, WA, 2012 (P1256), 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 Widgiemooltha South, WA, 2012 survey were acquired in 2012 by the WA Government, and consisted of 131391 line-kilometres of data at 100m line spacing 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.

Preliminary report on diamond drilling at the Brodribb prospect, Northern Territory

The Brodribb anomaly was first detected by the Bureau of Mineral Resources' aerial scintillometer survey over the Rum Jungle area in 1952. The prospect lies six miles due west of the 40 mile peg on the Stuart Highway and can be reached easily in the dry season by means of the Brodribb track. However, for several months during the wet season the track is quite impassable to heavy vehicles necessary to maintain drilling operations. Ground parties made a preliminary inspection of the area in September, 1952 and by the end of October a combined preliminary detailed geological and geophysical survey was completed (Frankovich, 1952). The results of the surveys and the consequent costeaning indicated that drilling should be carried out for a complete investigation.

The 2012 Australian Seismic Hazard Map - Introduction and Approach

Geoscience Australia is currently drafting a new Australian Earthquake Hazard Map (or more
correctly a series of maps) using modern methods and models. Among other applications, the
map is a key component of Australia’s earthquake loading code AS1170.4. In this paper we
provide a brief history of national earthquake hazard models in Australia, with a focus on the
map used in AS1170.4, and provide an overview of the proposed changes for the new maps. The
revision takes advantage of significant improvements in both the data sets and models used for
earthquake hazard assessment in Australia since the original map was produced. These include:
 Earthquake observations up to and including 2010
 Improved methods of declustering earthquake catalogues and calculating earthquake
recurrence
 Ground-motion prediction equations (i.e. attenuation equations) based on response
spectral acceleration rather than peak ground velocity, peak ground acceleration or
intensity-based relations.
 Revised earthquake source zones
 Improved maximum magnitude earthquake estimates based on palaeoseismology
 The use of open source software for undertaking probabilistic seismic hazard assessment
which promotes testability and repeatability
The following papers in this series will address in more detail the changes to the earthquake
catalogue, earthquake recurrence and ground motion prediction equations proposed for use in the
draft map. The draft hazard maps themselves are presented in the final paper.

Land classification and new geographical names in the northeast part of the Canning Basin, Western Australia

Mr. P.F. Nelligan, a surveyor from the Department of Lands and Survey, Perth and J.N. Casey from this Bureau, combined to produce a land classification map of the north-east part of the Canning Basin - an area covered largely by sand and dunes, interspersed with isolated rock outcrops, claypans and salt lakes.
The classification was plotted on 1 mile to 1 inch photo-indices prepared by National Mapping, Canberra, and the information was transferred to a 10 mile to 1 inch Land and Survey Dept. map by the drawing section of the L. and s. Dept.
The controlled compilation of this section of the Canning Basin from aerial photographs has not been completed therefore the land classification map is not accurate, but serves to show the relative distribution of the various land units.
Many features in the desert have been named by the surveyors and geological parties which operated in this area during 1955. Most of these features are plotted on the accompanying map, and their description is given in this record. All such names have been approved by the Nomenclature Committee, Lands and Survey, Perth.

GSWA East Canning 3 East Doserate 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. The terrestrial dose rate grid is derived as a linear combination of the filtered K, U and Th grids. A low pass filter is applied to this grid to generate the filtered terrestrial dose rate grid.
This GSWA East Canning 3 East Doserate Grid Geodetic has a cell size of 0.00042 degrees (approximately 45m) and shows the terrestrial dose rate of the Stansmore, WA, 2010 (East Canning 3). The data used to produce this grid was acquired in 2010 by the WA Government, and consisted of 122578 line-kilometres of data at a line spacing between 200m and 400m, and 50m terrain clearance.

Preliminary report on seismic survey at Roma, Queensland

A seismic survey was carried out near Roma during 1949-50, being part of a geophysical programme to search for structures likely to be significant for oil exploration. As preparation and publication of the final report on the survey may take some time it is desired to present briefly the main results in the form of a preliminary report. The first phase of the geophysical survey work at Roma comprised gravity and magnetic surveys, the results of which were presented in Bulletin No. 18. The residual gravity pattern revealed two possible structural high closures. The object of the seismic surveys was to prove or disprove the existence of these structures, and to obtain more detail concerning them if proved.

Geophysical interpretation of the Harris Greenstone Belt 1:250000 map

The Harris Greenstone Belt in the central Gawler Craton of South Australia has potential for Archaean Ni-Cu-PGE sulphide and Archaean-Proterozoic lode-Au mineralising systems. This map is a preliminary interpretation of the Precambrian basement geology based on aeromagnetics, gravity, and diamond drilling. It highlights the extensive distribution of poorly exposed Archaean komatiites and associated rocks (green) that have a strike extent of at least 300 km. The regional pattern of linear komatiitic sequences associated with ovoid granitic plutons and province-wide shear systems, is very similar to the economically important Eastern Goldfields Province in the Yilgarn Craton, Western Australia.
