A seismic investigation of the eastern margin of the Galilee Basin in Central Queensland was made by the Bureau of Mineral Resources in 1971. A seismic traverse was recorded between Lake Galilee No. 1 well and outcrops of the Drummond Group 80 km to the east. This area is covered by Cainozoic sediments and no seismic network has been attempted before the present survey. The area is of economic interest, as oil was recorded in a drill stem test in Lake Galilee No. 1 well in Carboniferous sediments in the interval 2890 to 2910 m and there are coal measures in the Upper Permian. Knowledge of the structure of the basin margin to the east of the well could reveal oil traps and economically mineable coal deposits. For the other two Galilee Basin surveys, please see L106 and L108.

Processed seismic data (SEG-Y format) and TIFF images for the 2007 AuScope Deep Crustal Seismic Survey (L186), acquired by Geoscience Australia (GA) and funded by the Australian Government under the National Collaborative Research Infrastructure Strategy. Field logistics and processing were carried out by the Seismic Acquisition and Processing team from Geoscience Australia. Stack and migrated data for line 07GA-A1 as well as CDP coordinates. The seismic line is oriented approximately northeast-southwest and extends from near Mt Surprise in the southwest to near Mareeba in the northeast. Raw data for this survey are available on request from clientservices@ga.gov.au

Processed Stacked and Migrated SEG-Y seismic data and section images for the Southern Carnarvon Deep Crustal Seismic Survey. This survey was conducted under a National Geoscience Agreement with the Western Australia Geological Survey. Funding was through the Onshore Energy Security Program. The objective of the survey was to image the Byro Sub-basin of the onshore Carnarvon Basin. Data are supplied as SEG-Y files and PDF images. Raw data for this survey are available on request from clientservices@ga.gov.au

A seismic survey extending over the Poole Range and Price's Creek areas and the Pinnacle Fault, near the north-eastern boundary of the Fitzroy Basin was corducted during the winter of 1953. The Poole Range Dome has been mapped in outcropping rocks of Permian age, but its western closure is not certain. It is at the south-eastern end of a line of anticlinal folding which includes the St. George Range Dome and Nerrima Dome. The target beds for an oil test bore would be the Devonian and/or Ordovician rocks, which crop out on the north-eastern side of the Pinracle Fault, and over which the Permian rocks of the Poole Range are believed to lie unconformably. The seismic results indicate a thick section of sediments on the south-western side of the Pinnacle Fault and show a fair degree of conformity between shallow and deep reflections on the northern flank of the dome. Further investigatioll was made in 1954 around the flanks of the dome to determine whether or not the domal structure persists at depth, but the interpretation of the results of the 1954 survey is not yet complete. The Ordovician rocks on tbe north-eastern side of the Pinnacle fault are shown to have a probable unexposed thickness of about 900 feet.

Trace Energy Services was contracted by the Australian National Seismic Imaging Resource (ANSIR) to conduct the Batten Trough Seismic Survey in the Northern Territory. The survey consisted of two lines totalling 127.60 kms. The data were collected in late 2002 as part of a study to examine the fundamental basin architecture of the Southern McArthur Basin and the nature of underlying basement. Much of the seismic program was designed to test geometric models in this area, including tectonostratigraphy, fault systems and basement structure. The results have wider applicability because the basin is considered to be a little deformed analogue of the Western Succession of Mt Isa.

The Bureau of Mineral Resources carried out a seismic survey of four months' duration in the Carpentaria Basin, North Queensland, in the second half of 1958. The survey showed that the Carpentaria Basin deepens gradually from the south, east, and west towards the southeastern corner of the Gulf of Carpentaria. The maximum thickness of sediments measured was about 1000 metres near Rutland Plains in the north of the survey area. It was found that gravity anomalies in the area do not correlate with basement relief.
