Alligator River Gravity (P197316), gravity point data

Created 16/10/2025

Updated 16/10/2025

Gravity data measures small changes in gravity due to changes in the density of rocks beneath the Earth's surface. 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 Alligator River Gravity (P197316) contains a total of 124 point data values acquired at a spacing of 850 metres. The data is located in NT and were acquired in 1973, under project No. 197316 for Bureau of Mineral Resources (BMR).
