Tasmanian Gravity Data (P199351), 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.
 This Tasmanian Gravity Data (P199351) contains a total of 2503 point data values acquired at a spacing between 50 and 1400 metres. The data is located in TAS and were acquired in 1993, under project No. 199351 for None.

Goyder impact structure, Arnhem Land, Northern Territory

A circular structural uplift of 3 kIn diameter in sandstone and mudstone of the Abner Sandstone crops out within the McArthur Basin of central Arnhem Land. Northern Territory, Australia. The surrounding area contains little outcrop, but the strata are believed to be flat-lying to gently dipping. An outer annulus of sand (disintegrated sandstone) contains scattered outcrops of fractured and brecciated sandstone generally striking tangentially to the structure and dipping outwards.  Silicified sandstone bearing shatter cones crops out in the radially faulted core of the structure. Petrographic analysis of sandstone and breccia from the central area reveals abundant fracturing, and single and multiple sets of closely spaced parallel planar deformation features in quartz. The orientation of these planar deformation features is consistent with impact-produced shock metamorphism.  The structure is interpreted as the remnant of the central uplift of a deeply eroded complex impact crater. The crater rim and floor have been removed by erosion, and considerable uncertainty surrounds the original rim dimensions. Comparisons with other terrestrial impact structures allow for a diameter in the range of 7-25 km. The age of the structure is probably pre-Cretaceous, but it could be as old as the Mesoproterozoic (~1400 Ma) age of the target rocks.

Review of Australian Offshore Natural Hydrocarbon Seepage Studies

A wide variety of studies have been carried out around the Australian margin to infer or detect natural hydrocarbon seepage.  Hydrocarbon seepage can, in selected geological settings, delineate subsurface petroleum accumulations and provide information on hydrocarbon charge type. However, the relationship between near-surface hydrocarbon seepage and subsurface petroleum generation and entrapment is often complex. Rates and volume of hydrocarbon seepage to the surface produce a variety of near-surface geological and biological responses, which require a range of sampling techniques to detect the seepage effectively. Interpreters must firmly grasp these issues to understand the significance of migrated hydrocarbons within near-surface sediments. Thus, it is important to understand the data types that have been used to infer seepage in Australia and the results of these studies, if natural hydrocarbon seepage is to be assumed in this region. Furthermore, the strengths and weaknesses of different approaches need to be understood and the data often need to be set in a global context to appreciate the significance of results obtained. This report is aimed at providing an overview of natural hydrocarbon seepage studies that have been carried out around Australia and to provide information on techniques and approaches that have proved to be successful during studies carried out by Geoscience Australian between 2004 and 2007.
...
This investigation provides an increased understanding of seepage detection technologies and techniques, particularly in relation to the Australian environment, and appropriate interpretation of potential seepage indicators in a global context. Consequently, seepage studies can be undertaken with greater confidence in Australia's offshore jurisdiction, in locations and at times that are optimal for effective seepage detection.

AUSGeoid98 v.1.0 data files: Wollongong (si56-12)

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.

L145 Kalgoorlie (Yilgarn) seismic survey, WA, 1997 Stacked and migrated seismic data and images for lines 96AGS-K1, 96AGS-K2, 96AGS-K3, and 96AGS-K4

Geoscience Australia through its partnership in the Australian Geodynamics Cooperative Research Centre (AGCRC) and Kalgoorlie Consolidated Gold Mines (KCGM) completed a joint research project to image the crustal structure of the Kalgoorlie region to develop a knowledge of the shallow and deep structures, tectonics, and fluid migration pathways. The Australian National Seismic Imaging Resource (ANSIR) was contracted to acquire the seismic data. The project's objectives were to obtain a better understanding of 1. sub-surface geology at a regional and mine scale 2. regional crustal thickness and major features 3. stratigraphic and structural architecture of the mineral system 4. timing and locations of fluid migration pathways The seismic survey obtained 25 km of 10 fold CMP (common midpoint) regional reflection seismic data along two traverses and 8 km of 10 fold CMP high resolution reflection seismic data along another two traverses. The data are of good quality and similar to both the 1991 and 1999 Eastern Goldfields reflection seismic data to the north and south of the survey area. The major outcome of imaging the four localities included mapping the Golden Mile and Boulder-Lefroy Faults, and the Boorara Shear at depth. This new information indicates the Golden Mile Mine was fed by a suite of relatively minor faults dangling off the major crustal-scale Boorara Shear. The dangling element relates to percolation theory. The detachment surface was imaged on all seismic traverses. Thrust duplexes were interpreted above the detachment surface.
