Geology of the Cotter River and Uriarra area, Australian Capital Territory

Created 17/10/2025

Updated 17/10/2025

The results of the first detailed survey of the Cotter River and Uriarra Area are recorded. This work was undertaken to provide a detailed geological map of the Cotter River Uriarra area. Certain problems arising from a previous regional survey of the area were investigated in detail. These were: (a) determination of the nature and extent of the Cotter "porphyry"; (b) division of "undifferentiated" Silurian lavas, tuffs and porphyries into units; (c) the location of the continuation of the Murrumbidgee Fault, if present, in the lower Cotter River area.
