Submarine valleys on the Ceduna Terrace off South Australia
A detailed bathymetric map has been compiled for the Ceduna Terrace, off South Australia. The most striking features of the bathymetry are numerous submarine valleys, which... -
The Late Triassic molluscs, conodonts, and brachiopods of the Kuta...
The Kuta Formation is mainly a limestone deposit which crops out on the flanks of the Kubor Anticline in the Central Highlands of Papua New Guinea. It has been variously... -
Hydrochemistry of a groundwater-seawater mixing zone, Nauru Island, central...
Nauru Island is a karstified dolomitic limestone island in the central Pacific Ocean. A thin, discontinuous freshwater layer overlies a thick brackish water mixing zone. In the... -

Preliminary studies of the Cape Leeuwin manganese nodule deposit off Western...
In 1970 a large deposit of ferromanganese nodules was discovered on the floor of the Indian Ocean southwest of Cape Leeuwin by the research vessel USNS Eltanin. This discovery,... -
Early Devonian thelodonts (Agnatha) from the Toko Syncline, western...
Thelodont scales recovered from the basal (calcareous) unit of the Cravens Peak Beds in the Georgina Basin, are referable to Turinia australiensis Gross, 1971, T. cf. pagei... -
Sediment-water interaction in Australian coastal environments: implications...
Limited Australian data on sedimentary processes- C, N, P, Fe and Si diagenesis at the sediment/water interface- have been reviewed. These and the results of more recent work... -
Late Cretaceous-Palaeogene nannofossil biostratigraphy of Challenger No. 1...
Late Cretaceous-Palaeogene calcareous nannofossil assemblages from the mainly carbonate section in Challenger No. 1 well, above the 780m level, have some similarities with the... -
The gravity field of offshore Australia
The free-air anomaly field of offshore Australia has been divided into about fifty regional gravity provinces, each of which is characterized by uniformity of trend, free-air... -
Glacially grooved surfaces in the Grant Group, Grant Range, Canning Basin...
Grooved surfaces in Late Palaeozoic Grant Group rocks in the central Grant Range were cut by glacial ice. The orientation of the grooves and small step-like sedimentary... -
Aeolianites in the Jurassic Jurgurra Sandstone, Canning Basin, Western Australia
During the geological mapping of the Mount Anderson Sheet area of the Canning Basin in 1976, an exposure of the Jurassic Jurgurra Sandstone about 20 km north of the type... -
Geology and mineral deposits of The Granites-Tanami and Tennant Creek...
The Palaeoproterozoic Tennant Creek Inlier (TCI) and The Granites-Tanami Inlier (GTI) share similarities in their stratigraphy and tectonic evolution. Both are characterised by... -
Compilation and production of the 1976 1:5 000 000 Gravity Map of Australia
In 1976 a coloured 1:5 000 000 Gravity Map of Australia was published by BMR. At that stage the systematic reconnaissance gravity coverage of Australia, initiated by BMR in... -
Diagenesis of Jurassic and Lower Cretaceous sandstones of the Eromanga Basin...
The Jurassic and Lower Cretaceous sandstones of the Eromanga Basin in New South Wales can be divided into quartzose and volcanolithic petrofacies. The latter comprises... -
Youngest Permian marine macrofossil fauna from the Bowen and Sydney Basins,...
The marine invertebrate macrofauna from the upper part of the Blenheim Subgroup of the Bowen Basin and the Kulnura Marine Tongue of the Sydney Basin is described. The fauna is... -
Flushing of Australian estuaries, coastal lakes and embayments: an overview...
Examination of a simple, but quantitative parameter, Sf/So, the ratio of average salinity of a coastal waterway/marine source water salinity, both geographically and temporally,... -
Diagenetic organic matter in Recent sediments and environments of deposition
Organic geochemical studies of the reduced organic material in sedimentary rocks provide a valuable insight into the origin and history of the sediments. Information on the... -
Pleistocene to Holocene planktic foraminiferal biostratigraphy of the Coral...
Fifteen of 27 potential planktic foraminiferal biostratigraphic events from the latest Pliocene-Holocene have been examined; most of the early Pleistocene was not able to be... -
Origins of sulphide in sediments
Sulphide in sedimentary ore deposits may be derived directly from the mantle or by reduction of sulphate. Sulphide in modem hydrothermal deposits is thought to have formed... -
