A regional geodetic network to monitor the state of the crust in the northern Surat Basin, Queensland.

This paper describes the purpose, design and implementation of a new regional-scale geodetic network that has been installed in the Surat Basin, Queensland, completed in November 2014. The network incorporates 65 survey marks and 40 radar corner reflectors to enable the combination of Global Navigation Satellite System measurements with remotely-sensed surface displacement maps derived using the Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar technique. The combination of these geodetic techniques in this region will bring an enhanced understanding of how resource extraction affects the surface, leading to increased productivity and environmental management.

New Exploration Opportunities on the Southwest Australian Margin: Deep-Water Frontier Mentelle Basin

Acreage Release by the Australian Government in 2010 offers for the first time exploration opportunity in the frontier Mentelle Basin. The Mentelle Basin is a large deep-water basin on the southwest Australian margin located approximately 120 km from Bunbury. The Mentelle Basin consists of a large, very deep water, depocentre in the west (water depths of 2000 to 4000 m), and several depocentres in the east in water depths of 500 to 2000 m. The major depocentres are estimated to contain 6 to 9 km of sediments. 
Assessment of the petroleum prospectivity of the Mentelle Basin is based on correlations to the adjacent Vlaming Sub-basin. These correlations suggest that the Mentelle Basin depocentres are likely to contain multiple source rock intervals associated with coals and carbonaceous shales, as well as good quality reservoir rocks and intraformational seals. The depocentres are overlain by a Cretaceous to Quaternary post-rift succession which contains regional seals and provides a range of potential stratigraphic traps. Burial depth and thermal maturity calibrated to data from the Vlaming Sub-basin indicate that potential source rocks are thermally mature for oil and gas generation. Petroleum systems modelling suggests that generation and expulsion from these source rocks commenced in the Early Cretaceous. The Mentelle Basin offers a wide range of play types, including faulted anticlines and fault blocks, sub-basalt anticlines and fault blocks, drape and forced fold plays, and a large range of stratigraphic plays and unconformity plays.

Differentiation of Late Cambrian-Early Ordovician species of Cordylodus (Conodonta) with biapical basal cavities

Four species of the conodont genus Cordylodus are recognised, containing elements that have two apices in the basal cavity (biapical), one extending into the cusp and the other into the first denticle of the posterior process. They are C. prion Lindstrom 1955, C. lindstromi Druce and Jones, 1971, C. prolindstromi sp. nov. and C. sp. nov. B. Cordylodus sp. nov. B has been found only in a single sample and insufficient material is available to establish limits of element morphological variability.  In the Ninmaroo Formation of the Georgina Basin, northern Australia, C. prolindstromi sp. nov. is found stratigraphically below the first occurrence of C. lindstromi. This relationship may be important in the resolution of the placement of the Cambrian-Ordovician boundary.  In all four species, the biapical cavity is best developed in the S elements, poorly developed in the P elements and, except in C. prion, absent in the M element. Multiple basal cavity apices that extend into the cusp and into the base of one or more denticles of the posterior process, may be found in aberrant specimens of most species of Cordylodus, but the consistent presence of the biapical cavity seems to be limited to these four species of the genus.  There has been some confusion in the literature about the application of the name Cordylodus lindstromi and most previous identifications of C. lindstromi now need re-evaluation in the light of the species definitions established here .

Chemostratigraphy of Waukarlycarly-1, Canning Basin, Western Australia: Report for Geoscience Australia

This report presents the results of chemostratigraphic analyses for samples of the Waukarlycarly 1 deep stratigraphic well drilled in in the Waukarlycarly Embayment of the Canning Basin. The drilling of the well was funded by Geoscience Australia’s Exploring for the Future initiative to improve the understanding of the sub-surface geology of this underexplored region of the southern Canning Basin. The well was drilled in partnership with Geological Survey of Western Australia (GSWA) as project operator.
Waukarlycarly 1 reached a total depth (TD) of 2680.53 m at the end of November 2019 and was continuously cored from 580 mRT to TD. The work presented in this report constitutes part of the post-well data acquisition. An elemental and isotope chemostratigraphic study was carried out on 100 samples of the well to enable stratigraphic correlations to be made across the Canning Basin within the Ordovician section known to host source rocks. Nine chemostratigraphically distinct sedimentary packages are identified in the Waukarlycarly 1 well and five major chemical boundaries that may relate to unconformities, hiatal surfaces or sediment provenance changes are identified. The Ordovician sections in Waukarlycarly 1 have different chemical signals in comparison to those in other regional wells, suggestive of a different provenance for the origin of the sediments in the Waukarlycarly Embayment compared to the Kidson Sub-basin (Nicolay 1) and Broome Platform (Olympic 1).

GSWA East Canning 3 East 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 GSWA East Canning 3 East Elevation Grid Geodetic is elevation data for the Stansmore, WA, 2010 (East Canning 3). This survey was acquired under the project No. 1227 for the geological survey of WA. The grid has a cell size of 0.00042 degrees (approximately 45m).  This grid contains the ground elevation relative to the geoid for the Stansmore, WA, 2010 (East Canning 3). 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.

Newcastle Waters International Map of the World (IMW) 1:1 000 000 topographic map

The International Map of the World (IMW) series is no longer maintained, and printed copies of this map are no longer available. The Australian portion of the series consists of 49 maps. They were produced to an international specification using the R502 series at 1:250,000 scale as source material. Production commenced in 1926 and was completed in 1978. The maps were revised from time to time and the last reprint was undertaken in 2003. Each standard map sheet covers 4 degrees of latitude by 6 degrees of longitude and was produced using a Lambert Conformal Conic projection with 2 standard parallels. The series has recently been superseded by the 1:1 000 000 topographic map general reference.

New geochronology of the Mount Woods Inlier and the central Gawler gold province

The Gawler Craton is a complex Archaean to Mesoproterozoic terrane. Defining the age-range of the geology in different areas of the craton is vital to understanding its geological history and aiding mineral exploration.
Recent SHRIMP U-Pb results from the Mount Woods Inlier and the Central Gawler Au province clarify the age of magmatic events, and gives an insight into the extent, and significance of the ~1590 Ma Hiltaba Suite. Further to this, the U-Pb dating has helped constrain the age of mineralisation in several areas.
Data from felsic and mafic igneous rocks from the Mount Woods Inlier show a predominant age-range of ~1590 Ma to ~1580 Ma. However, ~1708 Ma granite has also been identified. Along with inherited zircon spectra, the older granite may have important implications for unravelling the pre-Hiltaba history of the Mount Woods Inlier and its relationship to other Australian Proterozoic cratons. As high-grade metamorphic rocks are common in the Mount Woods Inlier, the significance and timing of their metamorphism have also been examined.
The age of magmatism in the Central Gawler is similar to the Mount Woods Inlier, with ~1590 Ma to ~1580 Ma igneous activity dominating. However, felsic igneous rocks of the Barns prospect (Adelaide Resources) are significantly older at ~1690 Ma. Mafic dykes from this area have also been dated, and although a similar age was returned, the zircons analysed may represent the age of the host rock into which the dyke has intruded. Granites and sedimentary rocks from the Tarcoola goldfield returned ages around 1590-1580 Ma and 1730-1715 Ma. Granitoid from the Weednanna prospect (Aquila Resources) has a Hiltaba age of ~1590 Ma.

Roper River - Roper, NT, 1993 (P610), 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 Roper River, NT, 1993 survey were acquired in 1993 by the NT Government, and consisted of 19738 line-kilometres of data at 500m line spacing and 100m 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.

AUSGeoid98 v.1.0 data files:  (sg56-07)

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.
