Cambrian black shales in the Karinya Syncline - stratigraphic distribution, sedimentology and kerogen composition.
The Heatherdale Shale and the stratigraphically younger Karinya Shale are transgressive units within the Lower Cambrian of the Karinya Syncline. Black muds of the Heatherdale Shale were deposited in an outer ramp setting of the Stansbury Basin under...-

Stansbury Basin, South Australia. Bitumen strandings on Kangaroo Island beaches. Field survey report.
Field examination of common asphaltite occurrences on Kangaroo Island beaches has concluded that they are relatively recent strandings of unknown origin and age. Their presumed sea floor mode of transport indicates a likely nearby source within the...-
