  • The Vlaming Sub-Basin CO2 Storage Potential Study web service includes the datasets associated with the study in the Vlaming Sub-basin, located within the southern Perth Basin about 30 km west of Perth. The data in this web service supports the results of the Geoscience Australia Record 2015/009 and appendices. The study provides an evaluation of the CO2 geological storage potential of the Vlaming Sub-basin and was part of the Australian Government's National Low Emission Coal Initiative.

  • <div>The Abbot Point to Hydrographers Passage bathymetry survey was acquired for the Australian Hydrographic Office (AHO) onboard the RV Escape during the period 6 Oct 2020 – 16 Mar 2021. This was a contracted survey conducted for the Australian Hydrographic Office by iXblue Pty Ltd as part of the Hydroscheme Industry Partnership Program. The survey area encompases a section of Two-Way Route from Abbot Point through Hydrographers Passage QLD. Bathymetry data was acquired using a Kongsberg EM 2040, and processed using QPS QINSy. The dataset was then exported as a 30m resolution, 32 bit floating point GeoTIFF grid of the survey area.</div><div>This dataset is not to be used for navigational purposes.</div>

    Total magnetic intensity (TMI) data measures variations in the intensity of the Earth's magnetic field caused by the contrasting content of rock-forming minerals in the Earth crust. Magnetic anomalies can be either positive (field stronger than normal) or negative (field weaker) depending on the susceptibility of the rock. The data 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. These line dataset from the Murrindal, Vic, 1996 VIMP Survey (GSV3060) survey were acquired in 1995 by the VIC Government, and consisted of 15589 line-kilometres of data at 200m line spacing and 80m terrain clearance. To constrain long wavelengths in the data, an independent data set, the Australia-wide Airborne Geophysical Survey (AWAGS) airborne magnetic data, was used to control the base levels of the survey data. This survey data is essentially levelled to AWAGS.

  • Here we present 3D and 2D resistivity models of the lithosphere beneath an area of southeast Australia, derived from Australian Lithospheric Architecture Magnetotelluric Project (AusLAMP) data and a subsequent infill broadband MT transect collected in October 2020. The Flinders Ranges, South Australia, is a zone that has been weakened by multiple Precambrian rift cycles related to the breakup of Rodinia, which may have led to the utilisation of this lithosphere for the focussing of fluid alteration causing high conductivities at crust and upper mantle depths in this region, as imaged in the AusLAMP 3D resistivity models. The northwestern end of a 100 km MT transect traverses this region and its 1.5 km MT site spacing resolves high conductivity pathways that broadly correlate with previously identified mineral prospects. These pathways straddle the resistive granodiorite rocks of the Anabama pluton, known to host porphyry-style mineralisation. To the southeast, the transect images the onlapping Mesozoic Murra Abstract presented at Australasian Exploration Geoscience Conference (AEGC), 15-17 September 2021, Brisbane, Australia

    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. The terrestrial dose rate grid is derived as a linear combination of the filtered K, U and Th grids. A low pass filter is applied to this grid to generate the filtered terrestrial dose rate grid. This GSWA Yalgoo Doserate Grid Geodetic has a cell size of 0.00021 degrees (approximately 22m) and shows the terrestrial dose rate of the Yalgoo, WA, 2014. The data used to produce this grid was acquired in 2015 by the WA Government, and consisted of 126967 line-kilometres of data at a line spacing between 100m and 200m, and 50m terrain clearance.

    The Digital Elevation Model represents ground surface topography between points of known elevation. The elevation data was calculated using the altimeters and Global Positioning System (GPS) sensor used for the benefit of airborne magnetic and radiometric data on the same survey. The elevation is the height relative to the Australian Height Datum GDA94 (AUSGEOID09). The processed elevation data is checked for quality by GA geophysicists to ensure that the final data released by GA are fit-for-purpose. These line dataset from the Morris-Cobb, WA, 2010 (South Canning 2) survey were acquired in 2010 by the WA Government, and consisted of 134843 line-kilometres of data at 400m line spacing and 60m terrain clearance.
