Marree, Mount Alford, Meta Hill and Etadunna. Joint first progress and joint final report to licences' joint full surrender, for the period 20/6/1980 to 19/12/1980.
An assessment of the oil shale potential of marginal Great Artesian Basin sediments in South Australia was carried out, due mainly to their perceived stratigraphic and lithological similarity to Cretaceous strata in Queensland which host the very...-

Organic petrology: Macumba 1 and Poolowanna 1 wells through the Eromanga, Simpson Desert and Pedirka Basins.
The dispersed organic matter content of drill cuttings samples from the subject wells was examined microscopically to assess its hydrocarbon potential. In general it appears that the Cretaceous and Permian sediments are unlikely to be good source...-

Pedirka Block. Acreage assessment report.
An assessment of the petroleum potential of the Pedirka farmout area, occasioned by the February 1989 compulsory 25% acreage relinquishment of PELs 5 and 6. Items reviewed include Block geology, farmout arrangements, future commitments, an inventory...-

Apatite fission track analysis of samples from the western Eromanga Basin and Eringa Trough, Australia.
16 rock samples from wells and outcrop in the western Eromanga Basin / Eringa Trough region were analysed for their apatite grain fission track properties to derive an interpretation of the geothermal history of the enclosing strata.-

Apatite fission track analysis of samples from Eringa Trough and western Eromanga Basin, Australia.
17 rock samples from 5 wells in the western Eromanga Basin / Eringa Trough region were analysed for their apatite grain fission track properties to derive an interpretation of the geothermal history of the enclosing strata.-

Thermal history reconstruction in Cooper-Eromanga Basin wells using apatite and zircon fission track analysis and vitrinite reflectance.
Results of a study aimed at providing a better thermal history framework for understanding the post-Palaeozoic thermal evolution of parts of the Cooper-Eromanga Basin, South Australia, based on apatite fission track analysis, zircon fission track...-

Source rock analysis of samples from Erabena 1, Simpson Desert region, SA.
Mature potential source rocks occur in the Juraasic Poolowanna Formation and the Triassic Peera Peera Formation. The lower Poolowanna interval has a greater source potential than does the upper Poolowanna. Marginally mature potential source rocks...-

RB 00753 Kalladeina bore - Lithological sequence, surface to 1 210 feet.
The near surface section encountered in Kalladeina 1 contains a thick Plio-Pleistocene section, whilst the Lower Tertiary sediments ubiquitously present in the Cooper's Creek Basin, are either absent or very thin. Of particular interest is the...-
