Geomagnetic report Davis and Casey 1994

Casey and Davis are Australian National Antarctic Research Expedition (ANARE) bases on the Antarctic mainland managed by the Australian Antarctic Division. Geomagnetic observations have been made at both bases, in cooperation with the Australian Geological Survey Organisation (AGSO), since early 1970s to provide information on the secular variation of the magnetic field. The magnetic observations and recording carried out by the ANARE expeditioners during 1994 were processed by AGSO's observer at Mawson. Results indicate the secular variation of the field at Casey was relatively unchanged over the year, while the field at Davis has decreased by some 30 nT in total field strength, and moved westerly by some 8 minutes in declination.

AUSGeoid98 v.1.0 data files: (sf49-07)

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 Data format: AUSGeoid98 data files have a header record at the start of each file, to distinguish them from the superseded AUSGeoid93 data files. AUSGeoid98 data files show the geoid-ellipsoid separation to 3 decimal places, while the superseded AUSGeoid93 data files showed only 2 decimal places.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

GSSA Coompana Infill Elevation Grid Geodetic

Digital Elevation data record the terrain height variations from the processed point- or line-located data recorded during a geophysical survey. This GSSA Coompana Infill Elevation Grid Geodetic is elevation data for the Coompana, SA, 2015. This survey was acquired under the project No. 1270 for the geological survey of SA. The grid has a cell size of 0.00042 degrees (approximately 43m).  This grid contains the ground elevation relative to the geoid for the Coompana, SA, 2015. It represents the vertical distance from a location on the Earth's surface to the geoid. The data are given in units of meters. The processed data is checked for quality by GA geophysicists to ensure that the final data released by GA are fit-for-purpose.

Geomechanical rock properties of the Officer Basin

The Officer Basin spanning South Australia and Western Australia is the focus of a regional stratigraphic study being undertaken as part of  the Exploring for the Future (EFTF) program, an Australian Government initiative dedicated to increasing investment in resource exploration in Australia. Despite numerous demonstrated oil and gas shows, the Officer Basin remains a frontier basin for energy exploration with significant uncertainties due to data availability.
Under the EFTF Officer-Musgrave Project, Geoscience Australia acquired new geomechanical rock property data from forty core samples in five legacy stratigraphic and petroleum exploration wells that intersected Paleozoic and Neoproterozoic aged intervals. These samples were subjected to unconfined compressive rock strength tests, Brazilian tensile strength tests and laboratory ultrasonic measurements. Petrophysical properties were also characterised via X-ray computerised tomography scanning, grain density and porosity-permeability analysis.
Accurate characterisation of static geomechanical rock properties through laboratory testing is essential. In the modern exploration environment, these datasets are a precompetitive resource that can simplify investment decisions in prospective frontier regions such as the Officer Basin.

Structural interpretations of the Wonga Belt in the Proterozoic Mount Isa Inlier of northwest Queensland-a review

Two contrasting interpretations have been put forward recently for the structural evolution of the Wonga Belt, a north-south-trending anticlinal zone of strongly deformed metamorphic rocks, more than 80 km long and up to 5 km wide, in the central part of the Mount Isa Inlier.  One interpretation involves major mid-crustal subhorizontal ductile extension with upper plate to the north, and the other involves north-south strike-slip faulting accommodating ditferential lateral transport of thrust sheets to either side, both the extension and strike-slip faulting taking place before the main folding event. A third interpretati on-relatively minor low-angle brittle extensional faulting and subsequent north-south strike-slip faulting predating folding-has been proposed for the southern continuation of the Wonga Belt.  Stratigraphic continuity along the Wonga Belt and abrupt changes in stratigraphy across the belt are difficult to reconcile with the south-over-north mid-crustal extension hypothesis, but can be accounted for by the strike-slip faulting component of the other two interpretations. The postulated strike-slip displacement would have exceeded 80 km, and taken place between about 1780 Ma, the maximum age of the youngest metasediments affected, and 1115 Ma, the age of a dolerite dyke that post-dates cross-cutting faults.

Edith Ck Greenstone Detailed Gravity Survey, NW Tas, 2001 (P200171), 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.

The Toomba Fault and the western margin of the Toko Syncline, Georgina Basin, Queensland and Northern Territory

The Toomba Fault is a major basement fault which extends for 200 km and forms part of the southwest margin of the Lower Palaeozoic Georgina Basin. Structural data from five detailed seismic and gravity profiles over the Toomba Fault establish that it is a high-angle reverse fault, with a dip varying between 40Â° and 70Â° and vertical displacement up to 6.5 km. The Palaeozoic strata to the northeast of the fault are steeply upturned, overturned, or folded into anticlines or monoclines. Associated faulting varies from small-throw faults to fracture zones 4 km wide, and reverse faulting. These data are consistent with other geological evidence that the area of the Toko Syncline was under general northerly compression during Late Devonian or Early Carboniferous time, and that right-lateral wrenching occurred along the fault, with up to 4 km of horizontal displacement. The presence of compressional features in adjoining Palaeozoic sediments indicates oblique convergence of crustal blocks during the wrenching. The area immediately east of the fault has several types of potential hydrocarbon traps. Up to 10 km of Adelaidean strata underlie Palaeozoic sediments within the Toko Syncline and up to 3.5 km of these sediments are present west of the syncline. A near-surface low-velocity layer, up to 250 m thick, west of the Toomba Fault, and concealed by sand and alluvium, probably comprises Jurassic to Cretaceous strata.

Developments towards GDA Modernisation

Users of position in Australia are fundamentally users of the existing definition of the national datum.  Due to Australia sitting on the fastest moving continental tectonic plate on Earth, positions measured in the past quickly degrade over time.  Coordinates measured relative to the Geocentric Datum of Australia 1994 are now over 1.5 metres in error.  With the growing proliferation of location-based information readily available at our fingertips, the economic success of nations across the world are becoming increasingly dependent on the continuous supply of accurate, real-time position.  It is thus clearly appropriate for leading professionals within the Surveying and Spatial Sciences Industry to ensure that the required level of accuracy needed by the community is available for their various applications.  This presentation describes the process of modernising the nation's coordinate system, its move to GDA2020 and onto a future time-dependant datum.
