This Bulletin presents the results of stratigraphic mapping of the Plateau using the acoustic stratigraphy available from seismic reflection profiling tied to the drill site. The sedimentary and structural history of the Plateau is deduced and compared with generalised models of rift-margin evolution; considerable departure from the 'norm' is demonstrated. {"type": "Polygon", "coordinates": [[[146.0, -21.0], [153.0, -21.0], [153.0, -11.0], [146.0, -11.0], [146.0, -21.0]]]} 146.0 153.0 -21.0 -11.0 AU-QLD Bulletin Earth Sciences GA Publication Published_External geology marine marine survey Download the Bulletin (pdf) documentDigital Download the Bulletin (pdf) PDF Unnamed resource documentDigital HTML
