RB 2022/00003 Zircon provenance and sedimentary transport processes – implications for the late Neogene evolution and heavy mineral deposits of the western Murray Basin, South Australia.
Strandlines or elevated shorelines, located across the Murray Basin in south-eastern Australia, trace the preserved remnants of former emergent coastlines that developed during the Late Miocene (c. 7 to 4 Ma) marine regression. Strandline traces...-
