Geoscience Australia's Basin Biozonation and Stratigraphy Chart series is a compilation of Australian hydrocarbon-bearing basin charts. Each chart summarises a basin's lithostratigraphy, hydrocarbon shows/discoveries and source rocks, correlating each basin sub-division with the international timescale, relevant biozones and a global sea level curve. Charts available: Arafura and Money Shoal Basins Biozonation and Stratigraphy, 1997, Chart 3 Southern Carnarvon Basin Biozonation and Stratigraphy, 1997, Chart 4 Timor Sea Biozonation and Stratigraphy, 1997, Chart 5 Amadeus Basin Biozonation and Stratigraphy, 2017, Chart 6 North West Shelf Stratigraphic Panorama, 1998, Chart 8 Roebuck and Offshore Canning Basins Biozonation and Stratigraphy, 1998, Chart 14 Carpentaria Basin Biozonation and Stratigraphy, 1998, Chart 16 Bass Basin Biozonation and Stratigraphy, 1998, Chart 17 Cooper and Eromanga Basins Biozonation and Stratigraphy, 1998, Chart 19 Triassic Biozonation and Stratigraphy, 1998, Chart 20 Permian Biozonation and Stratigraphy, 1998, Chart 21 Southern Margin Basins Biozonation and Stratigraphy, 1999, Chart 22 Lord Howe Rise Basin Regional Biozonation and Stratigraphy, 1999, Chart 26 Canning Basin Biozonation and Stratigraphy, 2013, Chart 31 Browse Basin Biozonation and Stratigraphy, 2017, Chart 32 Bonaparte Basin Biozonation and Stratigraphy, 2009, Chart 33 Otway Basin Biozonation and Stratigraphy, 2015, Chart 34 Bight Basin Biozonation and Stratigraphy, 2012, Chart 35 Northern Carnarvon Basin Biozonation and Stratigraphy, 2013, Chart 36 Offshore Northern Perth Basin Biozonation and Stratigraphy, 2013, Chart 38 Onshore Perth Basin Biozonation and Stratigraphy, 2013, Chart 39 Gippsland Basin Biozonation and Stratigraphy, 2013, Chart 40 Georgina Basin Biozonation and Stratigraphy, 2013, Chart 41

AGSO's 1995-1996 Petrel Sub-basin Study has defined the structural and stratigraphic evolution of the sub-basin. Results of this work will help to promote and focus future exploration activity and reduce exploration risk, as well as provide an important input to on-going AGSO research in other parts of the Timor Sea region. Well Folio: The well folio contains 1:5,000 scale composite well logs of 31 wells in the Petrel Sub-basin, together with 6 cross sections at 1: 10,000 scale, that were generated by StratLog II, GeoQuest software system for well interpretation and display. Well composities are arranged in alphabetical order (Plates 2-32); cross sections are in enclosed envelopes (Plates 33-38). Each well composite displays gamma and sonic logs from Wiltshire Geological Services, together with lithology, lithostratigrapic units (as defined in the original well completion report), sequence stratigraphic units defined in this study, biostratigraphic data, hydrocarbon shows and source rock data (averaged for each sequence stratigraphic unit). Map and Seismic Folio: The Map and Seismic Folio is a supplement to the Petrel Sub-basin Study 1995-1996 Summary Report AGSO Record 1996/40. AGSO deep-seismic lines 1000/101, 2, 3, 5 and 6 and 118/18 were imported from digital data using Geoquest software and interpretation were imported into Petroseis seismic data file (sdf) for mapping purposes. The seismic study, in conjunction with interpretation of well data, was undertaken using a sequence stratigraphic approach. Major sequence boundaries on the seismic sections were identified from onlap and truncation surfaces or by abrupt changes in seismic facies. In general, bases of sequences were 'carried' rather than tops. Location of seismic lines are shown on Plate 1. Time structure contours of key surfaces are shown in Plates 2 to 8. Time isopach maps of key surfaces are shown in Plates 9 to 25.

This GIS web browser contains stratigraphic information from the southern flank of the Murphy Inlier, Lawn Hill Platform and Leichhardt River Fault Trough in the Western Succession of the Mount Isa Block. The principal lithostratigraphic units covered by this dataset include the Surprise Creek Formation, Mount Isa and McNamara Groups. The images are pixilated versions of those contained on CD Records AGSO Record 1999/10, AGSO Record 1999/15, GA Record 2002/3. The data contained on the CD's is more comprehensive, at a better resolution and also contains cross sections that are not available over the web. No drill hole data is supplied in this viewer. The data compiled for this viewer was collected during the course of the NABRE, AMIRA P552 and pmd*CRC projects. The respective CD's also provide measured sections at different scales with slightly varying information available at 1:400, 1:1000, 1:2500 and 1:5000 scales. The information at each scale is slightly different. Plot files ready for printing also accompany the measured sections. Each of the measured sections contains primary observational data (grainsize, lithology, bed thickness, sedimentary structure and gamma ray curve) map-based lithostratigraphic units as shown on the 1:100,000 geological sheets, interpreted facies and sequence stratigraphic surfaces. Sections were measured using a Jacobs Staff and Abney Level and the rocks were marked in 1.5 m intervals of true thickness. Gamma ray data was collected at either 50 cm or 75 cm intervals of true thickness using hand-held Scintrex GRS 500 spectrometers that measured total gamma ray counts. A beryllium standard was used to calibrate each spectrometer. Each machine was calibrated at intervals of two to three hours. Each gamma reading was averaged over an interval of ten seconds. Outcrop discontinuities prevented the collection of stratigraphic data in a line of continuous section. As a result most of the sections present in this data set comprise a series of segments combined to form a single composite section. The single sections were all measured within a radius of several kilometres of each other. Individual sections were spliced together at prominent marker beds (outcrop tracing of strata), or by the use of overlapping gamma ray curves in conjunction with facies descriptions. Section locations shown in the web browser depict the base of each composite section. Grid coordinates for the base each composite section can be found in the header block of the appropriate section. The geological maps used in this web browser depict the approximate position of supersequence boundaries. Not all the geology for the region has been included and only the geology relevant to the measured sections has been used. The supersequences provided are based on the most appropriate lithostratigraphic boundaries and no new geological polygons have been created. It should be noted that the Torpedo Creek and Warrina Park Quartzites have been placed in the Prize Supersequence. However, we acknowledge that due to mis-mapping of these sand bodies the Torpedo Creek and Warrina Park Quartzites from the basal part of the Gun Supersequence at some locations.

This report deals with the results of 25,000 ft. of boring over an area of 15 sq. miles. Twenty-six coal seams were identified and named. Total reserves of all seams with band-free thickness greater than 4.0 ft. are 200,000,000 tons. Net open-cut reserves (to 9:1 ratio) of 7,500,000 tons over an area of 400 acres were tested and defined on four seams. All work in the Howick Area was done in the period March, 1952, to June, 1953.
