  • The Exploring for the Future program is an initiative by the Australian Government dedicated to boosting investment in resource exploration in Australia. As part of the Exploring for the Future program, this study aims to improve our understanding of the petroleum resource potential of northern Australia. This data release presents newly derived chemical maturity parameters based on Fourier transform-ion cyclotron resonance-mass spectrometry (FT-ICR-MS) analysis of non-polar (polyaromatic hydrocarbons) and polar (NSO) compounds. As such, it complements optical and bulk chemical techniques. Although, only a single core extract was analysed in this study, the technique offers potential for maturity assessments in high maturity samples outside the range of other traditional chemical maturity estimates and is ideally suited to samples older than the Early Palaeozoic.

  • The Meteorite Self Check List is a flowchart aimed to provide Client Visitor Services and the Collections team a resource to direct external clients towards, when they believe that they have found a meteorite. This resource will streamline and improve engagement with clients, and allow them a clear and friendly way to perform basic and effective tests/observations to their specimen, to determine if it is likely a meteorite.

    The radiometric, or gamma-ray spectrometric method, measures the natural variations in the gamma-rays detected near the Earth's surface as the result of the natural radioactive decay of potassium (K), uranium (U) and thorium (Th). The data collected are processed via standard methods to ensure the response recorded is that due only to the rocks in the ground. The results produce datasets that can be interpreted to reveal the geological structure of the sub-surface. The processed data is checked for quality by GA geophysicists to ensure that the final data released by GA are fit-for-purpose. This radiometric potassium grid has a cell size of 0.00083 degrees (approximately 85m) and shows potassium element concentration of the Complete Southern Yilgarn merge, 2004-2005 in units of percent (or %). The data used to produce this grid was acquired in 2004 by the WA Government, and consisted of 222105 line-kilometres of data at a line spacing between 200m and 400m, and 60m terrain clearance.

    Gravity data measures small changes in gravity due to changes in the density of rocks beneath the Earth's surface. The data collected are processed via standard methods to ensure the response recorded is that due only to the rocks in the ground. The results produce datasets that can be interpreted to reveal the geological structure of the sub-surface. The processed data is checked for quality by GA geophysicists to ensure that the final data released by GA are fit-for-purpose. This Mt Isa B Gravity Complete Bouguer Anomaly is a complete Bouguer anomaly grid for the Mt Isa 2006, Area B (P200641). This gravity survey was acquired under the project No. 200641 for the geological survey of QLD. The grid has a cell size of 0.0041 degrees (approximately 400m). The data are given in units of um/s^2, also known as 'gravity units', or gu. A total of 9857 gravity stations were acquired to produce this grid.
