Tiwi Islands, NT, 2006 (P1137), 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 Tiwi Islands, NT, 2006 survey were acquired in 2006 by the NT Government, and consisted of 30001 line-kilometres of data at 400m line spacing 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.

Review of Hydrofracturing and Induced Seismicity

This record summarises seismicity induced by hydrofracturing. It begins with a list of issues of concern to the public about hydrofracturing. 
The types of fracturing are then defined-tension, shear and hybrid tension and shear-and a failure mode diagram that explains the fluid pressure and stress regimes under which each is likely to occur is introduced. The report sets out the conditions under which fresh rock is fractured and pre-existing weak faults are reactivated. Fractures grow by small increments, with each increment causing a small earthquake. Earthquake magnitudes and intensities are explained so that the fracture size can be related to earthquake magnitude. What people feel is explained in terms of earthquake intensity. The size distribution of earthquakes induced by hydrofracturing of both intact rock and reactivating existing weak faults is then summarised based on case studies in the scientific literature.
The background established in the first part of the record is then applied to hydrofracturing in the coal seam gas, shale gas, enhanced geothermal and carbon sequestration sectors. The record concludes by explaining how hydrofracturing and induced seismicity contribute to a discussion of the issues of public concern listed in the introduction to the record.
The record is in two parts-the main body of the record and four appendices.  The main body is written in a form readable to non-seismologists, although a basic understanding of the scientific principles considered in the record would be an advantage. A more theoretical treatment of the hydrofracture process and earthquake size is given in the first two appendices. The third appendix discusses larger induced earthquakes attributed to a number of causes, including the reinjection of waste water from the unconventional gas industry. The fourth appendix summarises the current approaches to the regulation of the hydrofracturing process in several jurisdictions in Australia.

The Tectonic Framework of the Canning Basin, W.A., including 1:2 million Structural Elements Map of the Canning Basin

This report presents the 1:2 000 000 Structural Elements Map of the Canning Basin (Plate 1 by
describing the various elements, their controlling faults and their affect on basin development. The map
incorporates the results of AGSO's Canning Basin Project carried out between 1990 and 1994. This
report also attempts to rationalise previously published structural and tectonic terminology and to
clarify the definition and naming of individual tectonic elements and structures. The limits of the
structural elements are not always well defined due to poor outcrop and limited seismic coverage; in
Plate 1 the faults are positioned where they are estimated to intersect the surface. In order to provide a
3D-picture of the basin, and present preliminary new interpretations of deep-seismic sections

McArthur Basin hydrogeological inventory

This McArthur Basin dataset contains descriptive attribute information for the areas bounded by the relevant spatial groundwater feature in the associated Hydrogeology Index map. Descriptive topics are grouped into the following themes: Location and administration; Demographics; Physical geography; Surface water; Geology; Hydrogeology; Groundwater; Groundwater management and use; Environment; Land use and industry types; and Scientific stimulus.
The McArthur Basin, located in the north-east of the Northern Territory, is a Paleoproterozoic to Mesoproterozoic geological formation containing relatively undisturbed siliclastic and carbonate rocks, as well as minor volcanic and intrusive rocks. These sediments were primarily deposited in shallow marine environments, with some lacustrine and fluvial influences.
The basin's thickness is estimated to be around 10,000 m to 12,000 m, potentially reaching 15,000 m in certain areas. It is known for hosting elements of at least two Proterozoic petroleum systems, making it a target for petroleum exploration, especially in the Beetaloo Sub-basin.
Researchers have divided the McArthur Basin into five depositional packages based on similarities in age, lithofacies composition, stratigraphic position, and basin-fill geometry. These packages, listed from oldest to youngest, are the Wilton, Favenc, Glyde, Goyder, and Redback packages.
The McArthur Basin is part of the broader Proterozoic basin system on the North Australian Craton, bounded by various inliers and extending under sedimentary cover in areas like the Arafura, Georgina, and Carpentaria basins. It is divided into northern and southern sections by the Urapunga Fault Zone, with significant structural features being the Walker Fault Zone in the north and the Batten Fault Zone in the south.
The basin's southeastern extension connects with the Isa Superbasin in Queensland, forming the world's largest lead-zinc province.
Overall, the McArthur Basin is an essential geological formation with potential petroleum resources, and its division into distinct packages helps in understanding its complex stratigraphy and geological history. Additionally, its connection with other basins contributes to a broader understanding of the region's geological evolution and resource potential.

Rock-Eval pyrolysis data from the Birrindudu Basin

The Birrindudu Basin is a region of focus for the second phase of the Geoscience Australia’s Exploring for the Future (EFTF) program (2020–2024). The Paleo to Mesoproterozoic Birrindudu Basin is an underexplored frontier basin located in northwestern Northern Territory and northeastern Western Australia. Interpretation of industry seismic data indicates it contains strata of similar age to the prospective McArthur Basin, South Nicholson region and Mount Isa Province, but remains comparatively poorly understood. Furthermore, much of the age of the stratigraphy of the Birrindudu Basin, particularly the younger stratigraphic units, and regional correlations to the greater McArthur Basin remains provisional and speculative.&nbsp;

This report presents data from Rock-Eval pyrolysis analyses undertaken by Geoscience Australia on selected rock samples to establish their total organic carbon content, hydrocarbon-generating potential and thermal maturity from 178 drill core samples from six drill holes intersecting units of the Birrindudu Basin including: 99VRNTGSDD1, 99VRNTGSDD2, WLMB001B, LBD2, LMDH4, and ANT003.
