ABMINGA lies on the eastern edge of the Musgrave Block, which consists of Early to Middle Proterozoic gneisses and granites, intruded by dolerite dykes. A small area of folded and faulted Adelaidean and Cambrian sediments lies in the SW corner....

Study determined usefulness of limestone nodules in palynostratigraphic correlation. Abundant pollen, spores, dinoflagellates and acritarchs were recovered and are adequate for correlation with established assemblage zones.

The drill core recovered from the Muloorina Ridge bedrock over the hole depth interval 616.5 to 618 m in Muloorina 1 stratigraphic drillhole comprises a laminated siltstone resembling Tapley Hill Formation. Palynological examination of the drillhole...

The geology is reviewed, with emphasis on exposure and surface expression of the basin and regional geological mapping aspects. Prior to 1978, the term Great Artesian Basin was used to refer to the Eromanga Basin in SA. Discusses early contributions...

Results of mapping, particularly basal Mesozoic sandstone unit, description of sections and borehole study of cuttings from 14 holes.

5 spore / pollen zones and 3 dinoflagellate zones are recognised in Toodla 1, ranging from late Jurassic to Late Albian. The Mesozoic units penetrated by this well on palynological evidence are younger than traditionally recognised in other parts of...

Samples of calcareous concretions, mudstone, siltstone and sandstone were assigned an Aptian age.

Eighteen samples were collected from outcrop along the north bank of the Neales River in the Eromanga Basin, as part of the mapping programme for the WARRINA 1:250 000 map sheet. Where palynological dating was possible the sediments were found to...

The Abminga Diamond Project, undertaken by Caldera Resources NL, was granted exploration project status, including permission for EL joint reporting, in July 1996. This event followed up to two years of work by other operators on a number of...

Possible high-yielding oil shales of the Middle Cretaceous Toolebuc Formation, believed to be present within 125 m of the ground surface along the Dalhousie Anticline in the vicinity of previously drilled Pedirka Basin petroleum exploration wells...

The dispersed organic matter content of drill cuttings samples from the subject wells was examined microscopically to assess its hydrocarbon potential. In general it appears that the Cretaceous and Permian sediments are unlikely to be good source...

Report collates in tabular format the available MESA open file, published literature-based and other University of Adelaide organic geochemical data on the hydrocarbon prospectivity of sediments underlying the Simpson Desert region. Likely oil...

16 rock samples from wells and outcrop in the western Eromanga Basin / Eringa Trough region were analysed for their apatite grain fission track properties to derive an interpretation of the geothermal history of the enclosing strata.

34 selected drill core and cuttings samples from six wells were assessed by petrographic methods for their degree of organic maturation and petroleum source potential. The sampled sequence ranged in age from ?Devonian through to Permian, Jurassic and...

Composite drill cuttings from 3 Eromanga Basin water bores were sampled by Delhi over shallow intervals within which residual hydrocarbon shows had been reported by earlier visual logging, and were submitted to Amdel for geochemical confirmation of...

This company study of the Eromanga Basin sequence within PELs 5 and 6 and ATP 259P was designed to provide the Delhi Petroleum exploration consortium with data on the following: (a) thickness and correlation of Aptian-Albian units throughout the...
