Abstract

A deep seismic reflection profile was acquired in South Australia and Victoria in November 2009 by Geoscience Australia with project partners AuScope, Geoscience Victoria, and Primary Industries and Resources South Australia (PIRSA). Along with previously acquired deep seismic reflection data, this 145 km long line completes a continuous east-west transect across the eastern Delamerian Fold Belt into the western Lachlan Fold Belt. The project aims included determining tectonic vergence during and after amalgamation of the Gondwana Supercontinent, understanding the transition from passive margin (Rodinia breakup) to convergent margin (Tasmanides orogenesis), and locating the so-called 'Tasman Line', the extent of Proterozoic continental crust.
