Regional plate tectonics and the evolution of Australia's passive continental margins
The divergent, passive continental margins around Australia have evolved through the progressive dissection of eastern Gondwanaland in five separate seafloor-spreading episodes.... -
Geology and offshore petroleum prospects of the eastern New Ireland Basin,...
The eastern part of the New Ireland Basin of Papua New Guinea is about 600 km long by 150 km wide and mostly offshore, northeast of New Hanover and New Ireland. Basin geology... -
Mega-impacts and mantle-melting episodes: tests of possible correlations *
The criteria for recognising the effects of impacts by large-diameter extraterrestrial projectiles (Dp »10 km) on thin, geothermally active crust must vary fundamentally from... -
The late Cainozoic evolution of the Carpentaria Plains, North Queensland: a...
Grimes and Doutch (1978) have identified five predominantly alluvial stages in the depositional landforms of the Carpentaria Plains. In the light of the factors which they... -

Middle Ordovician conodonts from the Pittman Formation, Canberra, ACT
A small conodont fauna consisting of Pygodus serrus (Hadding) and Periodon aculeatus aculeatus Hadding has been recovered from the middle part of the Pittman Formation on Black... -
Structure and stratigraphy of the central Great Barrier Reef
The Cainozoic evolution of the central Great Barrier Reef Province has been deduced from shallow, intermediate, and deep focus seismic reflection profiling. For much of its... -
Structure, hydrodynamics and hydrocarbon potential, central Eromanga Basin,...
Possible economic hydrocarbon accumulations could exist in the Eromanga Basin sequence in southwest Queensland, particularly adjacent to faults transverse to groundwater flow.... -
Inverted transtensional basin setting for gold and copper and base metal...
The Cobar Basin in western New South Wales formed by sinistral transtension in the latest Silurian to late Early Devonian and evolved through a syn-rift phase of brittle upper... -
Archaean and Proterozoic geological relationships in the Vestfold...
The Archaean cratonic block of the Vestfold Hills, Princess Elizabeth Land is one of only three well-documented examples in East Antarctica. It is characterised by tectonically... -

Application of Landsat Thematic Mapping to geology and salinity in the Murray Basin
In hydrological and geological studies in the Murray Basin, composite images derived from Landsat Thematic Mapper (TM) digital data enable excellent delineation of both ancient... -
Application and extension of the ML earthquake magnitude scale in the Victoria region
A new function for -logAo has been deduced, and parameters determined using nonlinear regression analysis of data from the Victorian seismograph network. The formula for local... -
Early Silurian (Llandovery) conodonts from the Barbwire Terrace, Canning...
The recovery of a small Early to Middle Llandovery (Early Silurian) conodont fauna from core samples in two wells (WMC Acacia 1 and WMC Boab 1) is the first documentation of...
