Late Eocene - Pliocene stratigraphy of the Langhorne Sub-basin (north-western Padthaway Archipelago, South Australia).
The following Tertiary units were identified : Kongorong Fm, Narrawaturk Fm, Buccleuch Fm, Ettrick Fm, Mannum Fm, Kalibar Limestone, Parilla Sand and North West Bend Fm. All of these units are separated by unconformities. Erosional surfaces,...-

RB 95/00006 Micropalaeontological analysis of 26 petroleum wells in the Gambier Basin, South Australia.
More than 400 samples (cuttings and core) from 26 petroleum wells in the South Australian part of the Gambier Basin were examined. Their lithology and foraminiferal fauna were recorded and their age and environment of deposition deduced where...-

RB 00734 Stratigraphy and correlation of the marine sediments of the Gambier Embayment (Otway Basin).
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...-

RB 71/00077 Observation bore no.1, Hundred Townsend, section 125. Micropalaeontology and stratigraphy.
The drilled section was subdivided into Cainozoic units. The Gambier - Lacepede contact is probably disconformable. The planktonic foraminiferal sequence in the Lacepede Formation was studied in detail, and important biostratigraphic datums selected....-

RB 71/00078 Australia - Antarctica separation and the Eocene transgression in southern Australia.
Stratigraphic evidence indicates major change in sedimentary regime in the Middle Eocene, close to the inferred onset of continental breakup. Deep sea drill core suggests an Antarctic ice sheet may have existed at this time, when Australasia was much...-

RB 71/00200 Observation bore no. 2, Gambier Embayment of the Otway Basin. Tertiary micropalaeontology and stratigraphy.
The bore penetrated Coomandook Formation, Gambier Limestone, Lacepede Formation and Knight Formation including Burrungule Member. The three-part structure of the Gambier Limestone in the Oligocene might be formalized as members, and two zones are...-
