The 24-km-diameter Tertiary Haughton impact structure formed in rocks that contained preexisting liquid hydrocarbons. Biomarker ratios in the hydrocarbons show a consistent pattern of variation in degree of heating across the structure. The heating...

Data compilation and interpretation.

This study presents a quick review and interpretation of geochemical data available for wells of the PEL 32 and nearby areas. The study included the evaluation of source rock potential and maturity modelling. Source Rock Potential - The evaluation of...

Airborne and ground magnetic surveys were conducted in the Bundulla area of the Nullarbor Plain (SA), prior to drilling a prominent circular aeromagnetic feature. 2 percussion/rotary mud holes, each drilled to TD 369.5 m, penetrated crystalline...

The standing of crude oil on the beaches of southern Australia was first recorded approximately 150 years ago. This material, known locally as coastal bitumen, was used by the early maritime visitors and settlers to caulk their vessels and is the...

Wet processed china clay rock is suitable as filler in paper manufacture and, with further reduction in grit content, for coating paper. Dry processed clay not bright enough for paper manufacture.

Marla 1A and 1B reached 215.30 metres and 379.40 metres respectively, penetrating aeolian sands overlying the Bulldog Shale, Cadna-owie Formation an d Observatory Hill Beds. In contrast to Byilkaoora 1, oil shows and calcite pseudomorphs after...

Wilgena 1 (TD 973 m) penetrated 964 m into Tarcoola Formation within the Wilgena Sub-basin, without encountering magnetic basement. Thin dacitic to basaltic tuffs and basaltic flows, interbedded with carbonaceous siltstones, indicate contemporaneous...

Site of relatively high groundwater pollution potential has been rendered safe because of thorough leachate collection, treatment and disposal system designed for the then proponent by its consultant. The site is located within shallow (less than 40...

This study examines in detail, stratigraphy and sedimentology of Skillogalee Dolomite and its lateral variation. Data on facies development and palaeogeography for this area, particularly marine or non-marine interpretation are pertinent to the...

Continued investigations to identify relationships between organic carbon content and trace metal content confirmed conventionally defined rock units in the Basin exhibit characteristic trace element signatures. In Big Lake 23, the carbonaceous shale...

Data from AMDEL and SADME reports that pertain to Burra Group sedimentary rocks are systematically compiled as a data base for future reference and interpretation. These include organic carbon and carbonate content; sulphur and sulphide content;...

The Skillogalee Dolomite is a 3 700 metre thick repetitive siliciclastic stromatolitic dolomite intraclastic magnesite succession deposited in rapidly fluctuating shallow marine, paralic and arid playa environments.27 samples from the Willouran Ranges...

Initial geochemical investigations of Munkarie 1, integrated with analyses of cuttings from basal Hutton Sandstone to upper Epsilon Formation, suggested that conventionally defined units may exhibit trace element signatures and that the Toolachee...

SADME Byilkaoora no. 1 was drilled on the northeastern margin of the Officer Basin, in the Mt Johns Range, with the principal objective of coring a complete stratigraphic section of the Observatory Hill Beds. Good hydrocarbon source-rock potential...

The ethane, propane, butanes, and pentanes concentrations of shallow soil samples collected in 1975 from 1070 sites over the Permian Cooper Basin have been analysed. The samples were taken at a spacing of 300m along two regional traverses; on a widely...

Preliminary investigations suggest that shales within conventionally-defined rock units in petroleum well Munkarie 1 exhibit characteristic geochemical trace-element signatures. It appears moreover that the Toolachee Formation here can be subdivided...
