Wilkatana. 3 diamond, 3 percussion drills in operation. Magnetometer survey (Adastra-Hunting) commenced. Fairly detailed field and laboratory work. Roads graded. Plan SAN 51 shows bore locations. Inspissated oil has been recorded in all wells. Bore...

The two types of (anticlinal) structure seen in the Great Artesian Basin are described as follows. (1) Marginal type - formed where a relatively thin blanket of Mesozoic sediments is draped over ancient topographic highs and has undergone differential...

Notes on geology and petroleum prospects of areas surveyed. A Cambrian ageas. Wilkatana, 1,000 - Cambrian limestone below 300'-500' of Tertiary. Small amounts of oils and greases recovered (most promising in Archaes. bioherms). Plan showing cross...

Fairly detailed lithologic and stratigraphic logs for Haddon Downs nos 1-4 wells (1,505, 750', 777' and 820' deep). Review of drilling problems. Detailed reflection and refraction seismic work carried out by BMR. Refractor velocities 5,600/sec.,...

Summary of topography and foundries. Little systematic soil exploration. Records show at least 50 bores with minor oil showings. Geology. Basin developed during Mesozoic sediments mainly continental with several thousand feet of marine. Stratigraphy:...

Plant fossils from 4 localities in Hadden Downs and Needle Hill areas are described. Fossils in the area are sparse and usually fragmented, and all those described were found near the top of the lower shales, mudstones and sandstones which underlie a...
