Exploration fundamentals related to predicted world economic growth and higher oil prices suggest a resurgence in exploration for oil and gas liquids in the Timor Sea in the next two years, despite a slow down in exploration drilling in the last 12 months.

Amino acid racemization (AAR) dating of the eolianite on Lord Howe Island is used to correlate several disparate successions and provides a geochronological framework that ranges from Holocene to Middle Pleistocene time. The reliability of the AAR data is assessed by analysing multiple samples from individual lithostratigraphic units, checking the stratigraphic order of the D/L ratios and the consistency of the relative extents of racemization for a suite of seven amino acids. Three aminozones are defined on the basis of the extent of racemization of amino acids in land snails (Placostylus bivaricosus) and 'whole-rock' eolianite samples. Aminozone A includes Placostylus from modern soil horizons (e.g. mean D/L-leucine ratio of 0.03±0.01) and whole-rock samples from unconsolidated lagoonal and beach deposits (0.10±0.01-0.07±0.03). Aminozone B includes Placostylus (0.45±0.03) and whole-rock samples from beach (0.48±0.01) and dune (0.45±0.02-0.30±0.02) units of the Neds Beach Formation, deposited during OIS 5. The oldest, Aminozone C, comprises Placostylus recovered from paleosols (0.76±0.02) and whole-rock eolianite samples (0.62±0.00) from the Searles Point Formation, which indicate the formation was likely deposited over several Oxygen Isotope Stages (OIS), during and prior to OIS 7. These data support independent lithostratigraphic interpretations and are in broad agreement with U/Th ages of speleothems from the Searles Point Formation and corals from the Neds Beach Formation, and with several TL ages of dune units in both formations. The AAR data reveal that eolianite deposition extends over a significantly longer time interval than previously appreciated and indicate that the deposition of the large dune units is linked to periods of relatively high sea level.

After 1985, in preparation for rehabilitation of some previously mined areas, ANCA commissioned ground surveys of those areas. Three of these, Fields 20s and 22a, and Field 19a are included in the GIS. Fields 20s and 22a were provided in CIG85, while Field 19a, the most recently completed, is probably in Christmas Island Grid 1992 (CIG92).

Stratovolcanoes are steep-sided volcanoes that can erupt explosively eg. Mt St Helens. See internal and external volcanic features, plot the path of lava flows and see the risk faced by local towns. This product comprises one set of thirty A4 stratovolcano paper models, ready to cut out and construct a 3D model. Assembly instructions included. Suitable for primary level Years K-6 and secondary level Years 7-10.

This paper gives an interpretation of the continental margin off Willkes Land and Terre Adelie, East Antarctica, concentrating on the transition from continental to oceanic crust. The interpretation is based on the deep-seismic and potential field data acquired under the Australian Antarctic and Southern Ocean Profiling Project in 2001 and 2002.
