Map resulting from a request by Simon Moore, the DFAT resident officer in the Torres Strait. He wanted a diagram designed to be distributed to residents of the Torres Strait explaining the treaty arrangements. TRIM reference 2011-90238 Container 2010/4054

Map of Australia showing the distribution of black coal, brown coal and Coal Seam Gas bearing basins overlain by prohibited areas. This map and enlargements of the Sydney, Bowen/Surat and Arckaringa basins were provided to DoFD as part advice regarding CSG exploration and coal extraction on commonwealth lands. These maps and their subsets are in 'DRAFT' form and are for internal use only.

Magnetotelluric survey data acquired in association with the L190 Gawler-Officer-Musgrave-Amadeus Deep Crustal Seismic Survey. This survey was co-funded through AuScope, Primary Industry and Resources South Australia and Geoscience Australia's Onshore Energy Security Program. Data was acquired, processed and modelled by Geoscience Australia. The aim of the survey was to produce a two-dimensional image of electrical conductivity structure of the crust and upper mantle. This information is complementary to the reflection seismic and gravity data acquired along the 08GA-OM1 traverse. Data are supplied as EDI files with support information.

Magnetotelluric survey data acquired in association with the L189 Gawler-Curnamona-Arrowie Deep Crustal Seismic Survey over the Curnamona Province. This survey was funded through the Onshore Energy Security Program. Data was acquired by Quantec Geoscience. Analysis and modelling was undertaken by Geoscience Australia . The aim of the survey was to produce a two-dimensional image of electrical conductivity structure of the crust and upper mantle over the Curnamona Province. This information is complementary to the reflection seismic and gravity data acquired along the 08GA-C1 traverse. Data are supplied as EDI files with support information.

Magnetotelluric survey data acquired in association with the L184 Isa-Georgetown Deep Crustal Seismic Survey and L185 Charters Towers Deep Crustal Seismic Survey. These surveys were funded through the Geoscience Australia's Onshore Energy Security Program and the Queensland Governments Smart Mining - Future Prosperity Program. Quantec Geoscience were contracted to acquire and process these data. The aim of the surveys was to produce a two-dimensional image of electrical conductivity structure of the crust and upper mantle over the Isa and Georgetown blocks. This information is complementary to the reflection seismic and gravity data acquired along lines 07GA-IG1, 07GA-IG2 and 07GA-GC1. Data are supplied as EDI files with support information and models.

Crustal architecture in formerly contiguous basement terranes in SE Australia, Tasmania and northern Victoria Land is a legacy of late Neoproterozoic-Cambrian subduction-related processes, culminating in formation of the Delamerian-Ross orogen. Structures of Delamerian-Ross age were subsequently reactivated during late Mesozoic-Cenozoic Gondwana breakup, strongly influencing the geometry of continental rifting and providing clues about the origins and configuration of the pre-existing basement structures. An ocean-continent transform boundary developed off western Tasmania follows the trace of an older Paleozoic strike-slip structure (Avoca-Sorell fault) optimally oriented for reactivation during final separation of Australia from Antarctica. This boundary cuts across rocks preserving an earlier record of arc-continent collision during the course of which continental crust was subducted to mantle depths and Cambrian mafic-ultramafic island arc rocks were emplaced westwards over late Neoproterozoic passive margin sequences deposited during Rodinia breakup. Following a change to transcurrent motion along the Gondwana margin, Tasmania migrated northward along the Avoca fault system. This process arrested with entry of continental crust (Selwyn block) into a subduction zone located along the Heathcote-Governor fault systems, precipitating a second collision event accompanied by south-vergent thrusting, blueschist facies metamorphism and tectonic reworking of the already accreted Cambrian arc-forearc complex and underlying passive margin sequences.

The magnetotelluric (MT) data were acquired along a total of 690 km of the Youanmi deep seismic reflection traverses 10GA-YU1, 10GA-YU2 and 10GA-YU3-in Western Australia. This was a collaborative project between Geoscience Australia (GA) and the Geological Survey of Western Australia (GSWA), which provided the funding. The aim of the MT survey was to produce information of the electrical conductivity structure of the crust and upper mantle. This information is complementary to that obtained from deep seismic reflection, gravity, magnetic and geological data, which together provide new knowledge of the crustal architecture, rock properties and geodynamics of the region, important for helping to determine the potential for both mineral and energy resources. Data are supplied as EDI files with support information.

As part of the Australian Government's Onshore Energy Security Program (2006-2011) Geoscience Australia in collaboration with Geological Survey of Western Australia acquired magnetotelluric (MT) data along the deep crustal seismic reflection transect across the Yilgarn Craton, Officer Basin and Musgrave Province in Central Western Australia. The aim of the MT survey is to map the electrical resistivity distribution and improve scientific understanding of the crustal and upper mantle structure in this region. This information is complementary to that obtained from deep crustal seismic reflection, seismic refraction, potential field and geological data, which together provide new knowledge of the crustal architecture and geodynamics of the region. It is important for helping to determine the potential for both mineral and energy resources. Data are supplied as EDI files with support information.
