Problem constituents in Australian groundwater drinking-water supplies
Groundwater is a common source of drinking supply in Australias arid zone. The constituents in groundwater can limit its use either for drinking or for other domestic purposes.... -
An isotopic study of granitoids in the Litchfield Block, Northern Territory
The Litchfield Block contains a variety of granitoids, gneissic rocks, and migmatites that are intrusive into metasediments of probable Early Proterozoic age at the western... -
Rusophycus (Early Ordovician ichnofossil) from the Mithaka Formation, Georgina Basin
Large trilobite resting traces (Rusophycus) from the Mithaka Formation are up to 30 cm or more in length, and are found in association with asaphid trilobites of similar length.... -

Results of a seismic survey in the southern Denison Trough, Queensland, 1978-79
During 1978-79 BMR conducted a regional seismic survey in the southern Denison Trough, western Bowen Basin, Queensland. The aims of the survey were to examine the structural... -
Eastern Highlands of Australia; their uplift and erosion
The Eastern Highlands form a broad arch, with similar cross sections along its length, and varying altitude of its axis. At least on the western margin in Queensland and near... -
Enhancement and presentation of airborne geophysical data
Airborne geophysical data can be enhanced by a range of linear and non-linear filtering algorithms which selectively enhance the anomalies due to one group of geological sources... -
Multielement composition of the conodont species Polygnathus xylus xylus...
More than 200 conodont clusters and 1300 discrete elements belonging to Polygnathus xylus xylus and Owrkodina brevis were recovered from a sample of the Upper Devonian Napier... -
Late Palaeozoic glaciation
Many problems remain in the understanding of the Late Palaeozoic glaciation. Existing and new evidence suggests that the period and extent of glaciation were more limited than... -
The response and calibration of seismographs at Riverview College...
Seismograms from Riverview College Observatory for 1909 to 1962 are a valuable record of seismic ground motion in the Sydney region during that time, because the constants of... -
