Bendigo - Mitiamo Regional Gravity Survey, Vic 2007 (P200733), 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 Bendigo - Mitiamo Regional Gravity Survey, Vic 2007 (P200733) contains a total of 8050 point data values acquired at a spacing between 500 and 1000 metres. The data is located in VIC and were acquired in 2007, under project No. 200733 for Geological Survey of Victoria (GSV).

Leveque Shelf Browse Basin Marine Survey (GA-0340/SOL5754) (NCIP Program) - High Resolution Multibeam Acoustic Backscatter Grids

This resource contains backscatter data for the the Leveque Shelf, a sub-basin of the Browse Basin, in May 2013 on RV Solander (survey GA0340/SOL5754). The survey used a Kongsberg EM3002 300 kHz multibeam sonar system mounted in single head configuration to map six areas, covering a combined area of 1070 square kilometres. Data are gridded to 2 m spatial resolution. This survey provides seabed and shallow geological information to support an assessment of the CO2 storage potential of the Browse sedimentary basin. The basin, located on the Northwest Shelf, Western Australia, was previously identified by the Carbon Storage Taskforce (2009) as potentially suitable for CO2 storage. The survey was undertaken under the Australian Government's National CO2 Infrastructure Plan (NCIP) to help identify sites suitable for the long term storage of CO2 within reasonable distances of major sources of CO2 emissions. The principal aim of the Leveque Shelf marine survey was to look for evidence of any past or current gas or fluid seepage at the seabed, and to determine whether these features are related to structures (e.g. faults) in the Leveque Shelf area that may extend to the seabed. The survey also mapped seabed habitats and biota to provide information on communities and biophysical features that may be associated with seepage. This research, combined with deeper geological studies undertaken concurrently, addresses key questions on the potential for containment of CO2 in the basin's proposed CO2 storage unit, i.e. the basal sedimentary section (Late Jurassic and Early Cretaceous), and the regional integrity of the Jamieson Formation (the seal unit overlying the main reservoir)

Rason Throssel combined ppm thorium 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.
This radiometric thorium grid has a cell size of 0.00042 degrees (approximately 44m) and shows thorium element concentration of the Rason-Throssel merge, 1991-1998 in units of parts per million (or ppm). The data used to produce this grid was acquired in 1991 by the WA Government, and consisted of 107758 line-kilometres of data at a line spacing between 200m and 400m, and 60m terrain clearance.

Relationship between body wave and local magnitudes for Australian earthquakes

For Australian earthquakes with local magnitudes in the range ML 4.1-6.5, the relationship between ML and the body-wave magnitude mb may be predicted by the least squares regression line: mb = (0.66 Â± 0.20)(ML -4.79) + (4.92 Â± 0.04). It is based on 15 earthquakes for which there are at least two measurements of ML and mb for each event, and an additional 14 for which there was only one measurement of ML and/or mb. The more reliable 15 were given four times the weight of the others. A least squares regression line: mb = (0.80 Â± 0.17)(ML -4.85) + (4.98 Â± 0.04) was obtained from 31 earthquakes, which included these 29, together with the ML 6.9 Meckering and ML 7.0 Meeberrie events for which the data were also weighted as less reliable.  The local magnitude range used in this regression is ML 4.1-7.0.  We recommend that the first equation be used to estimate mb from ML, because the local magnitudes of the two additional earthquakes are dubious and also the linearity of the relationship may not hold at large magnitudes. Body-wave magnitude measurements made on Australian earthquakes at distances of less than 12Â° may be too high because the attenuation of P waves differs from that in Gutenberg and Richter (1956).

Geological reports on the Snowy Mountains region

The possibility of diverting the Upper Snowy River to provide water for irrigation has been a subject of discussion since 1884. The Snowy Mountains Hydro-Electric Authority was constituted in 1949. As the body responsible for the detailed investigation of the geology of the area it was thought desirable to publish the geological work which has been done in the Snowy Mountains region. With the authority of the Under-Secretary of the Department of Mines, New South Wales, the reports by members of the Geological Survey of New South Wales are included together with reports by geologists of the Commonwealth Bureau of Mineral Resources, Geology and Geophysics. Reports included in this publications are: "Geology - Jindabyne to Murrumbidgee River", "Reconnaissance Survey of Dam Site at Geehi, Swampy Plain River, N.S.W", "Geological Reconnaissance of the Proposed Hydro-Electric Works in the Kosciusko Area", "Geological Reconnaissance - Eucumbene River to Tumut River", and "Geological Reconnaissance - Murrumbidgee - Tumut Area".

Geological hazards in the southwest Pacific and southeast Asian region: identification, assessment, and impact

Geological hazards significantly affect communities in the tectonically active parts of the southwest Pacific and southeast Asian region.  Geological hazards include intensive hazards, such as earthquakes, volcanoes, tsunamis, and landslides, and slow-onset hazards, such as subsidence, coastal erosion, and coastal progradation. The ways in which these hazards are perceived differs from one community to the next, and coping strategies can be either traditional or, more often, western in approach. Geological hazards have tended to be treated individually and at  the national level, rather than as components of hazard mixtures and at a regional level. Furthermore, information on hazards in the region is widely dispersed; much of it is not readily accessible. A regional data base should be established for the collection, use, and dissemination of data on geological hazards, a comprehensive set of geological-hazard maps should be prepared, and a training scheme in geological-hazard assessment, mitigation, and preparedness should be established.

D.F.S. No. 1 Betoota, Queensland Of Delhi-Frome-Santos

The Betoota No. 1 well was drilled by Delhi Australian Petroleum Ltd, Frome-Broken Hill Company Pty Ltd, and Santos Limited, in far southwest Queensland to a total depth of 9,824 feet. Drilling was commenced on 22nd December 1959 and the well was completed on 18th April 1960 as a dry hole. The rig used was a National 130 owned by Delta Drilling Company. Delhi Australian Petroleum Ltd, as the operating company, supplied the supervisory, engineering, and geological personnel. A comprehensive programme to obtain all data relative to the hydrocarbon potential of the strata penetrated by the drill bit and stratigraphic information concerning the geological history of the area was diligently carried out. The operation also provided for a complete programme of electric and mud logging, testing and coring, carried out by the operating company and their contracted service
companies.
The Betoota No. 1 well established the presence of 5,757 feet of Mesozoic strata overlying 4,067 feet of sediments of probable Palaeozoic age at the site of the bore hole. Several showings of hydrocarbons were detected in sediments between 4,400 feet and 5,757 feet. Mter testing and examination of all evidence, they were considered to be noncommercial. From 3,450 feet to 5,757 feet some zones exhibiting very good porosity were encountered, but all were found to be water-bearing. Shales of both marine and brackishwater origin, regarded as suitable source rocks, occurred in the well between 1,350 feet and 3,245 feet and between 5,000 feet and 5,757 feet. The rest of the section penetrated was
composed of sediments whose origin did not suggest conditions of accumulation likely to foster the generation of fluid hydrocarbons.

Cooroorah Anticline seismic refractions survey, Queensland 1959

A seismic survey of the Cooroorah Anticline near Comet, Queensland, was conducted on behalf of Associated Freney Oilfields N.L. to assist the Company to select a site for a deep stratigraphic test bore. Sedimentary rocks are considered to extend down to at least 6000 ft and probably to 10,000 ft, but there is no seismic evidence to indicate that depth to basement is not considerably greater than 10,000 ft. An unconformity in the cross-section is indicated at a depth of 4000 to 5000 ft along the axis of the Anticline, and between 6000 and 7000 ft on the flanks. The geologically mapped Big Churchyard Culmination was confirmed to a depth of approximately 6000 ft, and another culmination was defined to the south along the axis of the Anticline. The geologically mapped Redrock Culmination does not persist at depth but may be associated with a small anticlinal feature whose axis is about 2 miles east of the surface structure. Two possible sites were indicated for a stratigraphic test bore.
