Abstract

The depth to Proterozoic basement surface was constructed in order to delineate the thickness of Phanerozoic and more recent cover material. The "basement" refers to the Neoproterozoic and older rocks underlying the Canning Basin. The 3D surface was constructed using GoCad software and constrained by drill-hole data, Euler depth solutions and forward modelling using magnetic data, and interpreted depths from three seismic lines crossing the Waukalycarly Embayment. The depth to basement surface should be used as a guide. With the exception of the drill-hole data, there are uncertainties involved in estimating the depths based on the magnetic methods (Euler depth solutions and forward modelling), as well as the seismic data.
