Revised stratigraphic nomenclature and correlation of Early Proterozoic...
New stratigraphic names and correlations are given for parts of the Early Proterozoic Pine Creek Geosyncline metasedimentary sequence and overlying felsic volcanics of the... -
Is broadscale revegetation economic and practical as a groundwater and...
In the Murray-Darling Basin, agricultural production (from cropland and irrigated agriculture) foregone through land degradation is estimated at $214.6 million/year. Clearing... -
Reinterpretation of Isotopic Ages from The Halls Creek Mobile Zone,...
Data presented elsewhere in this issue (Page, Blake, and Mahon, 1976) provide some of the first ages from The Granites-Tanami Block. Unfortunately it did not prove possible to... -
Geological history of the outer North West Shelf of Australia: a synthesis
This paper uses information contained in other papers in this issue of the AGSO Journal together with the scientific literature to produce a synthesis of the geological... -
Rb-Sr geochronology of the Jervois Range area in the eastern part of the...
New Rb-Sr isotopic data are presented for the Jervois Range area in the eastern part of the Arunta Block. The post-metamorphic Jinka and Jervois Granites yield an age of about... -
Relative fall of Holocene sea level and coastal progradation, northeastern...
The levels of intertidal environments of prograding Holocene coastal complexes of northeast Spencer Gulf have been precisely measured and their relation with the tidal range... -
Wastewater irrigation and groundwater quality protection
Nutrients in wastewaters from some municipal sewage treatment plants and intensive rural industries have contributed to water quality problems in Australian rivers and... -
Isostasy and structure of the lower crust and upper mantle in the...
Published seismic models for the northwest region of Australia are somewhat at variance with proposed isostatic models for the region. Two density models are examined to explain... -
The Cahill Formation - host to uranium deposits in the Alligator Rivers...
All the uranium deposits of the Alligator Rivers Uranium Field of Australia, which between them contain a quarter of the worlds reasonably assured uranium resources, are strata-... -
High-energy reef and terrigenous sedimentation, Boulder Reef, Great Barrier Reef
Sediment and water flux were monitored at Boulder Reef, in the Northern Great Barrier Reef, before, during, and after the passage of Tropical Cyclone Dominic. Rainfall at... -
Proterozoic microfossils from the Roper Group, Northern Territory, Australia
The Roper Group (minimum age approximately 1300 x 10^6yr) is a shallow water sequence of sandstone, siltstone, and shale, with minor, sub-economic oolitic ironstone. The... -
Australian Mineral Exploration: analysis and implications
Australian mineral exploration is at a 20 year low in real terms. After doubling in line with global exploration activity during the 1990s, exploration expenditure peaked in... -
An instrument for simultaneous measurement of Eh and pH in boreholes
An instrument is described that measures Eh and pH simultaneously in boreholes. The temperature of the borehole fluid and its self-potential with respect to an up-hole mud probe... -
A geophysical profile across Australia at 29°S
Long wave-length components of the gravity and magnetic fields, topography, and heat-flow data, are examined along a trans-continent profile close to 29°S. The profile crosses... -
Sequence stratigraphy: a review of fundamental concepts and their...
Sequence stratigraphic concepts and techniques provide a powerful tool to analyse and predict stratal architecture and facies patterns within sedimentary basins. The concepts... -
Ages of granites and associated mineralisation in the Herberton tinfield of...
Rb-Sr isotopic data reveal a close temporal association between ore deposits and the emplacement of Upper Palaeozoic granitic intrusions in the Herberton tinfield of northeast... -
Aspects of landscape history and regolith in the Kalgoorlie region, Western Australia
The regolith of the Kalgoorlie region includes saprolite in deep weathering profiles, and a range of surficial deposits, including colluvium, alluvium, and duricrusts, the... -
Potential from enhanced oil recovery applications in Australia
As a result of a Society of Petroleum Engineers/National Energy Research Demonstration and Development Council (NERDDC) meeting in Adelaide in April 1986 between Australian oil...
