This report describes the results of a micropalaeontological examination of samples recovered from the depth of 200-250 feet from Bondsprings station.
-
The analyses of some Australian iron ores was undertaken. The results of these analyses are set down in this report. Results are given for each deposit by state.
-
Details concerning the reserves of iron ore in Australia have been tabulated in this report. The report provides estimates of the grade and probable reserves of ore for the known Australian deposits.
-
This report describes the results of the micropalaeontological examination of two samples from central Queensland.
-
This report describes the fossils collected by D.M. Traves early in 1948 from the Barkly Tableland and adjacent areas in Queensland and the Northern Territory. The sequence of Cambrian faunas as far as it can be recognised in the present collection corresponds to the revised sequence given by F.W. Whitehouse in "The Cambrian Faunas of North-East Australia". This report comprises stratigraphical and palaeontological notes, and a preliminary list of fossils with notes on the lithology of the rocks in which they occur.
-
This report describes the results of the micro-examination of seven samples taken from Fossil Beach, Mornington.
-
This collection of fossils from the Portland area consists chiefly from mollusca, but where a small portion of sediment was attached to the fossils, it was removed and washed down for micro-examination. The number given to each sample refers to the registered number in the Victorian Geological Survey Collection. The results of the examination are recorded in this report.
-
This report summerises the kinds, sources, and handlers or processors of asbestos in Australia, 1944.
-
An examination was made of a wolfram vein seven miles north of Broken Hill, on July 8th, 1943. This report contains brief notes on the nature of the vein and the mineral specimens examined.

This report is written chiefly to present estimates of reserves of bauxite proved to date in Gippsland. Consequently, discussions of the geological aspects of the investigation, though essential to an understanding of the subject, are kept to a minimum. The existence of bauxite in the neighbourhood of Boolarra and Thorpdale, County Buln Buln, South Gippsland has been known for some years and bauxite from Nahoo, Allot. 8 Ph. Narracan South, has been used for chemical purposes for over 20 years. Eleven additional discoveries were made from time to time up to April, 1942, when an extensive prospecting programme was undertaken. In the short time that has elapsed since then a further twelve deposits have been discovered, making a total of twenty-four deposits in the adjoining parishes of Moe, Allambee East, Narracan South, Mirboo and Budgeree in the county of Buln Buln. Several of these deposits have been systematically tested by shaft sinking and boring. This exploration is still in progress.
