  • Trace Energy Services was contracted by the Australian National Seismic Imaging Resource (ANSIR) to conduct the WA seismic 2004 survey in the eastern & northern Goldfields region of Western Australia. There were 148.59 km of 2D seismic reflection data recorded, 137.54 km over 29 traverses using Litton 315 Paystars and 11.05 km over 5 traverses using a single IVI Minivib as source. All lines were situated within the lease boundaries of gold mining companies, namely, Sons of Gwalia (Tarmoola & Gwalia) (L165), Placer Dome (Kanowna Belle, Wallaby, Granny Smith, Lancefield & Mt Morgans) (L166), Anglo Gold (Sunrise Dam) (L167) and Goldfields (St Ives at Kambalda) (L168). <b>Raw data for this survey are available on request from clientservices@ga.gov.au - Quote eCat# 74862</b>

  • The Officer Basin project was a co-operative project jointly conducted by Geoscience Australia (GA) and the South Australian Department of Mines and Energy (DMESA) as part of the National Geoscience Mapping Accord (NGMA). The goals of the 1993 seismic acquisition in the Officer Basin were to provide a regional network of traverses to develop a cross section and evaluate basin morphology. The acquisition was designed to image the basin fill, with the aim of extending the stratigraphic control in the eastern Officer Basin into the central portion of this basin. The survey comprised five lines totalling 550 km in length. In 2021, Geoscience Australia commissioned reprocessing of these legacy 2D seismic data as part of the Exploring for the Future (EFTF) program, to improve data quality and better image reflective structural features in the region. Velseis Processing Pty Ltd carried out the reprocessing from March to August 2021. GA managed the reprocessing project, undertook quality control of the data processing and archived the processed data. This dataset includes metadata, images and SEGY files for pre-migration stacks, pre-stack time and depth migration stacks, and post-stack migration data. The images and SEGY files are derived from the Velseis final SEGY files. The reprocessed dataset is available for download. <b>Raw data and the Velseis data package for this survey are available on request from clientservices@ga.gov.au - Quote eCat# 74944</b>

  • Geoscience Australia conducted the Albany Fraser Orogen 2D Seismic Survey in 2012. The survey involves the acquisition of seismic reflection and gravity Data over the Yilgarn Craton margin and the Albany Fraser Orogen of Western Australia. The survey consisted of four lines, totalling 677kms. The project is a collaborative project between Geoscience Australia and the Geological Survey of Western Australia and is part of the ongoing cooperation under the National Geoscience Agreement (NGA). Funding of this project is through the Western Australian Government's Royalties for Regions Exploration Incentive Scheme. The primary objective of the project is to Image the crustal architecture of the Yilgarn Craton margin and its relationship to the Albany-Fraser Orogen and establish the subsurface extent of the Yilgarn Craton beneath the Albany-Fraser Orogen, and look for mantle-tapping structures that may have provided fluid pathways for mineralization. The seismic lines are designed to cross several major faults, such as the Cundeelee Fault, the Fraser Fault, the Newman Shear Zone, and the Red Island Shear Zone. A 70km long deep crustal seismic line was also acquired near the Tropicana Gold mine with the assistance of AuScope Earth Imaging, Anglo Gold Ashanti and the Independence Group. The purpose of this line was to image the crustal architecture as well as to understand the structural geometry around the Tropicana gold deposit and help define prospective areas elsewhere along the belt.

  • <p>The survey in the Mt. Isa and Duchess areas was performed by Dynamic Satellite Surveys for Geoscience Australia in 1994. The survey encompassed two lines, the first approximately 247 km in the area between Cloncurry and Mt. Isa and the second line of approximately 32 km in the Duchess area. The objective of this survey is part of the Mt Isa Transect multidisciplinary study of the structure and evolution of the Mt Isa region in Queensland.<p><b>Raw data for this survey are available on request from clientservices@ga.gov.au - Quote eCat# 74943</b>

  • The Tanami region of the Northern Territory is a major Australian gold province and contains the world class Callie gold deposit. Shallow sediments largely obscure basement host rock, so the application of geophysical techniques has become an important mapping tool for the further exploration and development of the mine. Acquisition of seismic data along a single line across the deposit will test the understanding of key structures, some of which are related to mineralisation. By extending the line beyond the boundaries of the currently well understood mine area, we hope to illuminate continuations of stratigraphic and structural trends. These structures include: fault geometries, relationships of stratigraphic packages to controlling structures and stratigraphic thickness. The survey is designed to provide data to image to approximately 2km depth. Integration the data from this project with that of the Tanami Seismic Reflection Acquisition Project will provide a broader understanding of the structural and stratigraphic frame work of both the mine area and the Tanami region.

  • Seismic reflection survey has been conducted to help identify the possible oil-bearing structures, which were revealed by two residual gravity anomalies in a geophysical survey made by the Bureau of Mineral Resources. Good reflections were obtained in some parts of the area, but the quality was not consistent. The seismic results appear to confirm a small closure near one of the gravity anomalies. No definite closure is shown near the other anomaly.

  • Following a gravity survey of the Perth Basin in 1951-52 (Thyer and Everingham, 1956), in which it was indicated that a sedimentary thickness of about 35,000 ft was probably present in the Perth Basin, several seismic traverses were surveyed across the Basin. This Record deals with one such reflection traverse which was surveyed between Quindalup and Donnybrook. The purposes of the survey were to find the thickness and dip of the sediments and to discover any faulting or folding within them. Results of the survey were inconclusive regarding the depth to basement but indications are that it is at least 8000 ft in the deepest part of the B,sin along this traverse. The sediments appear to be folded and faulted. There is evidence for the existence of a major fault east of the Dunsborough Fault, and the existence of the Whicher Fault was tentatively confirmed.
