GSNSW Exploration NSW Area Q Wagga Wagga thorium grid geodetic

This GSNSW Exploration NSW Area Q Wagga Wagga thorium grid geodetic is an airborne-derived radiometric thorium window countrate grid for the NSW DMR, Discovery 2000, AREA Q, WAGGA WAGGA, NSW 2001 survey. 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 thorium (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 GSNSW Exploration NSW Area Q Wagga Wagga thorium grid geodetic has a cell size of 0.00049 degrees (approximately 50m). The data are in units of counts per second (or cps). The data used to produce this grid was acquired in 2000 by the NSW Government, and consisted of 31696 line-kilometres of data at 250m line spacing and 70m terrain clearance.

Cooper Basin South 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 Cooper Basin South Elevation Grid geodetic is elevation data for the Cooper Basin South Gravity Survey, Queensland 2007 (P200741). This survey was acquired under the project No. 200741 for the geological survey of QLD. The grid has a cell size of 0.0075 degrees (approximately 787m).  This grid contains the ground elevation relative to the geoid for the Cooper Basin South Gravity Survey, Queensland 2007 (P200741). 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.

Landslide susceptibility mapping: A remote sensing based approach using QGIS 2.2 (Valmiera)

Landslides are a complex geological hazard triggered by a combination of factors depending on their magnitude and type (Figure 1). There are a number of methodologies employed for landslide susceptibility mapping around the world.  The method adopted should vary according to the individual characteristics of the landslide being considered. The method of landslide susceptibility mapping adopted here was developed using an existing method, the InfoVal method (van Westen 1997), adapting it for use with the open source software QGIS. QGIS was chosen as the GIS system due to its use by other natural hazard scientists in Papua New Guinea and in the region, and because it is free and open source.

Goomalling, WA, 1996 (P921), 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 Goomalling, WA, 1996 survey were acquired in 1996 by the WA Government, and consisted of 35665 line-kilometres of data at 250m line spacing and 60m 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.

Seventh BMR Symposium

The BMR Symposia are annual events, stressing work of relevance to industry. The Seventh Symposium was held in Canberra between 2 and 4 May 1978, and was opened by Mr A. J. Woods, Secretary of the Department of National Development, on behalf of the Hon. K. E. Newman, MP, Minister of the Department. Sessions were held at the Academy of Science Building on 2 and 3 May. Talks presented, abstracts of which are given below, included results of completed projects, of work in progress, and some more general topics. A panel discussion was held on Assessment of 1:100 000 scale geological mapping of Precambrian terrains in northern and central Australia. There were two informal workshops on 4 May: one of them, on Involvement of government organisations in geochemical surveys, was held at CSIRO Head Office; the second, held at BMR, was on the Georgina Basin.

Forrest 1:250 000 topographic map

This map is part of the series that covers the whole of Australia at a scale of 1:250 000 (1cm on a map represents 2.5 km on the ground) and comprises 513 maps. This is the largest scale at which published topographic maps cover the entire continent. Each standard map covers an area of 1.5 degrees longitude by 1 degree latitude or about 150 kilometres from east to west and 110 kilometres from north to south. There are about 50 special maps in the series and these maps cover a non-standard area. Typically, where a map produced on standard sheet lines is largely ocean it is combined with its landward neighbour. These maps contain natural and constructed features including road and rail infrastructure, vegetation, hydrography, contours (interval 50m), localities and some administrative boundaries. The topographic map and data index shows coverage of the sheets. Product Specifications Coverage: The series covers the whole of Australia with 513 maps. Currency: Ranges from 1995 to 2009. 95% of maps have a reliability date of 1994 or later. Coordinates: Geographical and either AMG or MGA (post-1993) Datum: AGD66, GDA94, AHD.

Carpentaria - Mt Isa Zinc Belt: basement framework, chronostratigraphy and geodynamic evolution of the Proterozoic successions - Australian Journal of Earth Sciences special volume

Palaeoproterozoic sedimentary rocks of the McArthur-Mt Isa-Cloncurry mineral belt of northern Australia host the world's most important zinc repository, several world-class Cu-Au deposits and Australia's principal uranium reserves. Advances in exploration techniques in the 1980s led to the discovery of several major deposits, including Walford Creek and Grevillea.
This thematic issue comprises 12 papers organised under the three main objectives or themes of the NABRE project. The first two manuscripts consider the evolution of metamorphic and stratigraphic basement to the prospective intervals of the Mt Isa, McNamara, Fickling and McArthur Groups. The next two papers document SHRIMP zircon and palaeomagnetic datasets used to constrain the sequence stratigraphic results. The remaining set of eight papers report the results of the integrated chronostratigraphic analyses. The sequence-stratigraphic papers are arranged in approximate chronological order and progress from southeast to northwest across the outcrop belt. The framework studies documented herein will be of use to geoscientists worldwide. The processes of basin evolution will assist geoscientists to unravel the early phases of basin evolution in Palaeoproterozoic successions now preserved as structurally dismembered and metamorphosed provinces in Australia and overseas.

AUSGeoid98 v.1.0 data files: Dorrigo (sh56-10)

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.
