Seismic line 07GA-IG2, described here, forms part of the Isa-Georgetown-Charters Towers seismic survey that was acquired in 2007. The seismic line is oriented approximately east-west and extends from east of Croydon in the west to near Mt Surprise in the east (Figure 1). The acquisition costs for this line were provided jointly by the Geological Survey of Queensland and Geoscience Australia, and field logistics and processing were carried out by the Seismic Acquisition and Processing team from Geoscience Australia. Three discrete geological provinces have been interpreted on this seismic section (Figure 2). Two of these, the Numil and Abingdon Provinces, only occur in the subsurface. The upper crustal part of the seismic section consists of the Paleo- to Mesoproterozoic Etheridge Province, which here includes the Croydon Volcanic Group in the western part of the Province. In this east-west profile, the crust is essentially two-layered, with a strongly reflective lower crust defining the Numil and Abingdon Provinces and a less reflective upper crust being representative of the Etheridge Province.

As part of its Energy Security Initiative, the Australian Government allocated Geoscience Australia $59 million in August 2006, to undertake a five-year Onshore Energy Security Program. This is designed to deliver precompetitive geoscience data and scientifically-based assessments to reduce the rick in exploration for onshore energy resources, including petroleum, uranium, thorium and geothermal energy. The work is being conducted in collaboration with the State and territory geological surveys and is scheduled for completion in June 2011.

This is an extended abstract prepared for the Mines and Wines conference run by SMEDG_GSNSW_AIG in Orange, NSW on 18-21 September 2007.
