Tertiary age heavy mineral sand marine placer deposits were the principal target in the Naracoorte - Penola region. Following an assessment of regional geophysical data seeking to identify possible palaeo-depositional traps adjacent to basement...

Technical data related to the Banyula 1 well proposal, dealing with environmental protection, geological, drilling engineering and associated work practice methods.

Recognition of foraminiferal zones confirms the closure of the structural high near Mount Salt Homestead in a northwesterly direction, and suggest that its NE boundary is at least partly formed by en echelon faults extending in a roughly NW direction.

A programme of structure drilling was carried out within County Grey, South Australia during April and May, 1966 with the object of mapping the upper surface of the Eocene Knight Group. The programme, as originally envisaged, was to have comprised the...

This publication details the stratigraphy of the Murray Basin Province of South Australia. The work leading up to this report has played a major part in the understanding of the sedimentary succession of this important basin-area of the State. The...

Contains a report by the wireline logging contractor Schlumberger on the checkshot survey of the well used to calibrate the sonic log and generate synthetic seismograms, a separate pre-interpretation report by Schlumberger on MSD (mean square dip)...

The Murray Basin is a shallow, saucer-shaped Tertiary basin covering an area of 120 700 square miles extending from the western foot of the Snowy Mountains in New South Wales and Victoria to the Mount Lofty Ranges in South Australia. Geophysical work...

Sludge and core samples examined microscopically but not in detail show a sequence on 70 feet of recent sands followed by at least 90 feet of Loxton Sands. Below 260 feet Miocene-Oligocene limestone continued to 479 feet at which 9 feet of glauconitic...

Beneath a cover of shell sand and reworked Gambier Limestone Beachport No.1 Well intersected a sequence of Lower Tertiary and cretaceous rocks. The Tertiary sediments of Oligocene age consisted of Gambier Limestone 760-820 feet, equivalents of the...

Australian Oil and Gas Company Wentworth No.1 was drilled 25 miles north of Wentworth, N.S.W, to a depth of 2081 feet. The well penetrated a sequence of mainly marine Tertiary rocks to a depth of 1273 feet; it then intersected 331 feet of marine Lower...

The sediments of the Gambier Embayment are mainly of Cretaceous and Tertiary age. Lower Cretaceous subsurface units have been referred to outcropping rocks of the Otway and Merino Groups, but satisfactory criteria for their identification with...

Five structure holes drilled to a depth of approximately 1,000 feet in the Hundred of MacDonnell 9 miles south west of Mount Gambier intersected a lower Tertiary section in downward sequence of Gambier Limestone, Buccleuch Group and Knight Group...

From brief examination of cores and of the five structure holes the following sequence has been intersected to 921 feet. 0-536 feet Gambier Limestone (Oligocene), 536-600 feet Buccleuch Group (Upper Eocene); 600-3131 feet Knight Group (Dartmoor...

North Renmark 1 was drilled 6 miles north of Renmark, to a total depth of 4018 feet. The well penetrated a sequence of Tertiary, Cretaceous and Permian rocks, mostly of marine origin, and has given the most complete section so far known from the...

Background: Enormous reserves of high grade polyzoal limestone exists in the South east of South Australia near Mount Gambier. The conventional methods of calcinations (vertical shaft kilns, rotary kilns and multi stage fluidized beds) are either...
