Nickel Sulphide Deposits in Australia: Resources and Potential

This presentation, presented at  PDAC 2004, provides an insight into the nickel-sulphide industry of Australia in 2004 - a very dynamic and exciting time for the industry that is rapidly changing, through regular announcements of new discoveries, intersections, upgraded resources, and new mineralised provinces. Nickel-sulphide deposits in Australia are mainly associated with Archaean komatiites and Archaean Proterozoic mafic intrusions, but some unusual Phanerozoic deposits occur in eastern Australia. The majority of Australia's nickel production (~80%) is derived from komatiite deposits in the Yilgarn Craton of Western Australia. The Eastern Goldfields Province of this craton hosts one of the greatest concentrations of Archaean komatiite-hosted nickel deposits in the world, several of which are world class (&gt;1 Mt Ni). Exploration activities in Australia are currently focussed on mafic-ultramafic rocks in Late Archaean and Proterozoic provinces. Exploration has been stimulated by the discovery of new deposits (Flying Fox, Daybreak, Armstrong, Daltons, McEwen, Nebo-Babel), recognition of different styles of mineralisation (Avebury), and the protracted period of elevated nickel metal prices. There is considerable potential for finding new deposits associated with komatiites and mafic intrusions, particularly under shallow cover.

Kakadu Stage II 2, NT, 1983 (P616), 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 Kakadu Stage II, NT, 1983 survey were acquired in 1982 by the NT Government, and consisted of 46936 line-kilometres of data at a line spacing between 150m and 150m, and 80m 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.

Lake Eyre - U equivalent concentration grid (AWAGS, no nasvd)

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 Geological Survey of South Australia commissioned the Gawler Craton Airborne Survey (GCAS) as part of the PACE Copper initiative. The airborne geophysical survey was flown over parts of the Gawler Craton in South Australia. The program was designed to capture new baseline geoscientific data to provide further information on the geological context and setting of the area for mineral systems (http://energymining.sa.gov.au/minerals/geoscience/pace_copper/gawler_craton_airborne_survey). 
This radiometric uranium grid has a cell size of 0.0004 degrees (approximately 41m) and shows uranium element concentration of the Lake Eyre Airborne Magnetic Radiometric and DEM survey, SA, 2017 in units of parts per million (or ppm). The data used to produce this grid was acquired in 2017 by the SA Government, and consisted of 92215 line-kilometres of data at 200m line spacing and 60m terrain clearance. To constrain long wavelengths in the grid, an independent data set, the Australia-wide Airborne Geophysical Survey (AWAGS) airborne magnetic data, was used to control the base levels of the survey grid.

AUSGeoid98 v.1.0 data files: Tambo (sg55-02)

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.

Hybrid cross shore and longshore shoreline evolution modeling for probabilistic assessment of beach erosion

Winds, waves and tides associated with storms are capable of causing severe damage to coastal property and infrastructure. Locations that are prone to erosion and inundation first require an accurate assessment of risk before deciding the most cost effective mitigation option. This research aims to produce probabilistic assessments of the coastal erosion and inundation risks associated with storms, particularly for coincident or clustered events, thereby helping to strengthen the resilience of coastal communities.
Coastal erosion and inundation hazard is modeled in this study by simulations of realistic sequences of storm condition forcing (waves and tides) through a morphodynamic model to calculate return periods for maximum extent of shoreline retreat and storm demand. This approach of estimating erosion return periods is superior to the assumption that the single most energetic storm causes maximum erosion. The methodology is demonstrated at Old Bar, NSW and the metropolitan Adelaide beaches, SA, which are both currently erosion hotspots in Australia. These sites were selected to test the methodology for a span of geographic conditions in terms of storm climate and deep-water wave exposure, working towards developing this method into a transportable framework applicable to other coastal areas.
Desktop and field assessments of each site were conducted to document geomorphic and sediment characteristics to inform shoreline modeling. Having established the historical framework at each location, multivariate statistical analysis of wave (buoy or hindcast models)
and tides for peak storm events has allowed for the synthesis of realistic future conditions. This complex sequencing of cycling between accretion and erosion incorporating cross-shore and alongshore sediment transport has been estimated using a probabilistic shoreline evolution model. Here, model outputs for both sites are illustrated and used to access risk to infrastructure based on the most probable envelope of the shoreline. This study was undertaken for the Bushfire and Natural Hazards CRC project ‘Resilience to clustered disaster events on the coast - storm surge’.
