  • 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.
