Aspects of coal type and rank variation, and their bearing on hydrocarbon potential in seven wells from the southern Cooper Basin.
Seven wells along a line of section in the southern Cooper Basin were studied. Examination of coals in Permian and Triassic sequences revealed marked vertical and lateral trends in vitrinite, inertinite and exinite content and their microlithotypes....-

Hydrocarbon potential and environmental interpretations of the Jurassic - Lower Cretaceous section in five wells in the Eromanga Basin.
Five wells along a north-south trending section in the southern Eromanga Basin were studied using petrographic techniques to delineate petroleum source rocks and possibly aid in environmental interpretation. The dispersed organic matter (d.o.m.) in...-

Organic petrology of a suite of samples from Merrimelia 15 and a comparison with Merrimelia 6 and 7.
Ten samples of drill cuttings from Merrimelia 15 were examined in polished section under normally incident white light and under reflected light UV fluorescence mode. Brief descriptions of the dispersed organic matter contained in each sample, plus...-

Notes on the source affinity and thermal maturity of Eromanga Basin crude oils.
Gasoline range hydrocarbon analysis, carbon isotope analysis of C12+ saturates and aromatics and GC-MS analysis of C12+ naphthenes provide a consistent picture of the source affinity and thermal maturity of Cretaceous (Murta Member-type) and Jurassic...-

Source rock richness in the Eromanga and Cooper Basins. Total organic carbon (TOC) data.
A study of source-rock richness has entailed the evaluation of TOC data for the Eromanga and Cooper Basins. TOC analyses were averaged and plotted on 1:250 000 basemaps, on a formation by formation basis. The data were contoured by honouring all data...-

Rank variation in the Cooper and Eromanga Basins, central Australia.
The Cooper Basin is an infra-basin (area 127 000 km2) containing a Permian to Triassic age succession which is overlain by Jurassic and Cretaceous age sedimentary rocks of the Eromanga Basin. Coal beds occur throughout the entire section. Oil and...-

1963 Birdsville - Lake Frome Gravity Survey. Part 2 - Interpretation of reconnaissance gravity and magnetic survey, Gidgealpa area, SA.
1189 stations spaced at half-mile intervals were read for gravity and ground magnetic values along variously dispersed lines and loops that cover 2000 square miles of the north-eastern corner of the State, by GSI Party 662 personnel over the period...-
