Frome thorium 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 thorium grid has a cell size of 0.00083 degrees (approximately 86m) and shows thorium element concentration of the Frome, SA, Broken Hill Exploration Initiative, 1995 in units of parts per million (or ppm). The data used to produce this grid was acquired in 1995 by the SA Government, and consisted of 68300 line-kilometres of data at 400m line spacing and 80m terrain clearance.

GSNSW Exploration NSW Area P Narrabri magnetic first vd grid geodetic

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.

Summary of results. Joint NTGS-GA geochronology project, Warburton Basin.

This Record presents data collected in March 2022–February 2023 as part of the ongoing Northern Territory Geological Survey–Geoscience Australia SHRIMP geochronology project under the National Collaborative Framework agreement and Geoscience Australia’s Exploring for the Future Program. New U–Pb SHRIMP zircon geochronological results were derived from sedimentary rock chip samples of the Warburton Basin collected from four petroleum exploration wells (Beachcomber 1, Thomas 1, Simpson 1, Colson 1) in the southeastern corner of the Northern Territory. Geologically, this is a region in the Simpson Desert that encompasses several superimposed intracratonic sedimentary basins that are separated by regional unconformities that extend over areas of adjoining Queensland, South Australia and New South Wales. The exposed Mesozoic Eromanga Basin overlies the late Palaeozoic Pedirka Basin, which is largely restricted to the subsurface. The Warburton Basin is an early Palaeozoic pericratonic basin containing an early Cambrian and Ordovician succession (Edgoose and Munson, 2013), with possible Devonian rocks observed in some areas (Radke, 2009). As the Warburton Basin is entirely concealed beneath the Pedirka and Eromanga basins, our current understanding of the geology of the western Warburton Basin is constrained by the lack of surface exposures, the small number of well penetrations, limited biostratigraphic age control, and relatively sparse seismic data coverage. 
    The samples analysed herein were collected to aid in understanding the chronostratigraphy and provenance characteristics of the concealed Warburton Basin. All four sedimentary samples are dominated by Mesoproterozoic detritus (ca 1000–1300 Ma), have fewer zircons of Paleozoic age, and generally have sparse older Palaeoproterozoic–Archaean aged zircons. Samples from the two westernmost wells yielded 238U/206Pb maximum depositional ages of 469&nbsp;±&nbsp;9&nbsp;Ma (Colson 1) and 394&nbsp;±&nbsp;6&nbsp;Ma (Simpson 1). Samples from the two easternmost wells yielded older 238U/206Pb maximum depositional ages of 569&nbsp;±&nbsp;10&nbsp;Ma (Thomas 1) and 506&nbsp;±&nbsp;5&nbsp;Ma (Beachcomber 1). These data imply that known Devonian stratigraphy extends at least as far as the Simpson 1 well, but may not extend further east.

AUSGeoid98 v.1.0 data files:  (sh49-14)

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.

NSW Continental Slope Survey - Post Cruise Report

This cross agency report, highlights the areas of the central NSW continental slope prone to sediment mass wasting over time. It includes the critical factors which contribute to slope failure including basement geometry, angle of slope and thickness of overlying sediments.  Evidence of slope failure are observed through: surficial tension cracks; creep features; faulting; redistribution of sediments, multiple relict slides on the sea floor and erosional surface scars.

Timing of regional tectonism and Au-mineralisation in the Tanami Block: 40Ar/39Ar geochronological constraints

Existing age constraints for geological events in the Tanami Block come predominantly from U-Pb geochronology of i) detrital zircons in sediments, and ii) magmatic zircons in granitoids.
These constraints have been used together with observed and inferred geological relationships to help constrain timing of stratigraphy, magmatism, deformation, metamorphism and Aumineralisation (e.g. Vandenburg et al., 2001). Ongoing GA/NTGS zircon geochronology is continuing to refine our understanding of the stratigraphy and magmatic history of the Tanami, with attendant implications for tectonic evolution. In this regard it is noteworthy that detrital zircon ages of ~1815 Ma from the Killi Killi formation require either (or both) a revision of existing stratigraphy, or that the so-called Tanami Orogenic Event significantly post-dates ~1815 Ma, in contrast to previous estimates of ~1845 - 1830 Ma. However, detrital and magmatic zircons can provide no direct constraints on timing of deformation, metamorphism and Au-mineralisation, and consequently our current understanding of these processes in the Tanami region is relatively poor, despite being critical to predictive exploration models.
