New Constraints on the Thermal History of North-East Greenland from Apatite Fission-track Analysis .
Apatite fission-track analyses from the area north of Jameson Land, East Greenland, indicate that the region has undergone at least three phases of cooling during the Mesozoic and Cenozoic. Two major periods of cooling during the Tertiary have been...-

Exploration for tight gas reservoirs enhanced by natural fracturing, Cooper Basin, South Australia.
This ARC SPIRT project aims to identify where natural fractures enhance reservoir permeability in the ‘tight’ gas reservoirs of the Nappamerri Trough. Year 2 of the project, reported herein, focuses on natural fracture “sweet spot” prediction with...-

Amdel service work report on uranium-lead [radiometric] dating of an outcrop sample [of the Boucaut Volcanics].
An absolute age of 677 Ma +/- 12 Ma was determined from analyses of six selected zircon grains separated from the subject volcanic rock sample, but the result is strongly affected by the need to impose large corrections to the data to compensate for...-

Recognition of tectonic events in undeformed regions - Contrasting results from the Midland Platform and East Midlands Shelf, Central England.
Apatite fission-track and vitrinite reflectance data from Central England demonstrate how these techniques can reveal otherwise unrecognized tectonic and/or palaeothermal episodes in apparently tectonically stable areas. The results document the...-

Extent of low-grade Archaean metavolcanics in the northeastern Gawler Craton: new evidence and definition of the Devils Playground Volcanics.
The bulk of the late Archaean volcanic/volcaniclastic rocks from the Gawler Craton range in age from c. 2535 to 2510 Ma (Fanning, Reid and Teale 2007). However, these units were preceded by an older set of volcanics, the c. 2558 calcalkaline volcanics...-

Palaeothermal and compaction studies in the Mochras borehole (NW Wales) reveal early Cretaceous and Neogene exhumation and argue against regional Palaeogene uplift in the southern Irish Sea.
The North Atlantic continental margins have been subject to widespread exhumation, although the timing, magnitude and causes of this uplift and erosion are debated. Exhumation is thought to be most severe across the Irish Sea basin system (Western...-
