AUSGeoid98 v.1.0 data files: Newcastle Waters (se53)

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 Data format: AUSGeoid98 data files have a header record at the start of each file, to distinguish them from the superseded AUSGeoid93 data files. AUSGeoid98 data files show the geoid-ellipsoid separation to 3 decimal places, while the superseded AUSGeoid93 data files showed only 2 decimal places.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

GSWA Newdegate ppm Uranium 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 uranium grid has a cell size of 0.00083 degrees (approximately 85m) and shows uranium element concentration of the Southern Yilgarn (Newdegate, Ravensthorpe, Bremer Bay), WA, 2004 in units of parts per million (or ppm). The data used to produce this grid was acquired in 2004 by the WA Government, and consisted of 99719 line-kilometres of data at 400m line spacing and 60m terrain clearance.

White's South prospect, Rum Jungle, Northern Territory

White's South prospect is situated on the southern bank of the Finniss River (East branch) about 400 feet south southwest of White's Deposit (Ward 1953). Rocks do not outcrop in the area, but low radioactive anomalies were located in this area by the Geophysical Section 1951 suggesting that the western continuation of White's Deposit after faulting might be beneath the soil cover. Low grade ore intersections were obtained in five diamond drill holes put down in the area in 1952. A plan of the area on a scale of 40 feet to 1 inch accompanies this report (Plate 1).

Insights into subsurface properties from sonic core drilling in the Keep River region, East Kimberley, northern Australia

In 2018, as part of the Australian Government-funded Exploring for the Future program, Geoscience Australia drilled fifteen sonic boreholes in the Keep River region in north-western Northern Territory. The boreholes averaged 49 m in depth with 99% core recovery, and were completed as piezometers. Boreholes were geophysically logged (induction, spectral gamma and nuclear magnetic resonance) and sampled for hydrochemistry; the data from these measurements facilitating the calibration and validation of satellite and airborne geophysical measurements.
Recovered core was immediately extruded into polythene tubes on site, sealed, and refrigerated. At a nearby field laboratory core was split, transferred to core trays, measured, geologically logged, and duplicate sub-sampled at ~30 cm intervals. Sub-sampled material was stored in sealed vials, and refrigerated to ensure suitability for hydrochemical analysis. One of each sub-sample pairs was hydraulic pressed to acquire pore water samples, which were rapidly analysed for pH and EC. The remaining half core was air dried and  scanned using a Hylogger multispectral system. The refrigerated pore water and core samples were kept for further study, including magnetic susceptibility, grainsize, palaeontology, and hydrochemistry.
The sonic drilling technique combined with our workflow has many advantages over conventional rotary drilling, including:
•   High core recovery.
•   Recovery of uncontaminated sub-samples, including pore fluids, for further study.
•   Clean bore construction and ease of completing bores as piezometers.
The results of the drilling program analyses have enabled discrimination of Ord River palaeovalley sediments from underlying weathered Paleozoic basin sediments, with valley fill up to 50 m thick. Facies analysis of sonic core permitted discrimination of fluvio and fluvio-estuarine sediments. Porewater salinity in the unconfined water table zone varies widely, and increases up to an order of magnitude with depth. The core will also facilitate experiments to determine salt mobility within a range of material grainsizes, which is vital for determining salinity hazard.
