RB 99/00031 Assessment of zinc-lead prospectivity on the Murnaroo Platform and in the Manya Trough, eastern Officer Basin, South Australia.
The Neoproterozoic to Palaeozoic Officer Basin is located on and adjacent to the northwestern margin of the Gawler Craton. Deposition of the basin began in Adelaidean time, before and during the breakup of the supercontinent Rodinia. The...-

Sedimentology and petroleum geochemistry of the Ouldburra Formation, eastern Officer Basin, Australia.
Deposition of the Early Cambrian Ouldburra Formation, a mixed siliciclastic/carbonate, marine carbonate and evaporite succession, occurred in the shallow marine setting of the Manya Trough. The observed variations between the facies are interpreted...-

Sedimentology of the Ouldburra Formation (Early Cambrian), northeastern Officer Basin.
The Ouldburra Formation (Early Cambrian) is a newly defined sequence of carbonates, mixed carbonate/siliciclastics and evaporites in the northeastern Officer Basin, northern South Australia. Deposition took place during the late stages of...-
