The Bullara Limestone, a new rock-stratigraphic unit from the Carnarvon...
A new rock unit, the Bullara Limestone, is proposed for a Late Oligocene bioclastic limestone, which is probably restricted to the subsurface of Rough Range. The Bullara... -
Pollution of a fractured rock aquifer by petrol - a case study
Shallow groundwater aquifers are susceptible to pollution by various contaminants. Amongst them, refined petroleum products are a serious hazard, because of their immiscibility... -

DISCUSSION: Major geomorphic features of the Kosciusko-Bega region
Discussion: Ollier and Taylor (1988) are correct when they write that the Kosciusko- Bega region has long been of interest to geomorphologists, They also point out that there... -
Palynology of Tertiary Lake Bunyan, Cooma, New South Wales
Pollen and spore assemblages have been recovered from coaly lenses and marginal facies of Tertiary lacustrine sediments at Lake Bunyan, north of Cooma, southern New South Wales.... -
The Appin (New South Wales) earthquake of 15 November 1981
The earthquake that occurred near Appin, New South Wales, on 15 November 1981 and its aftershock of 19 November were both associated with thrust faulting in the middle crust... -
A re-assessment of stromatolite evidence for the correlation of the late...
The identification of a stromatolite sample as Baicalia cf. B. burra has been used as evidence for the correlation of the Late Proterozoic Neale beds and Ilma beds in the... -
Geophysical response of heavy-mineral sand deposits at Jerusalem Creek, New...
BMR has started evaluating how geophysical methods might assist in exploration for deposits of the heavy minerals rutile, zircon, ilmenite, and monazite. Historically,... -
Environmental consequences of saline groundwater intrusion into the Wimmera...
Saline groundwater intrusions into lowland reaches of the Wimmera River, western Victoria, accumulated under low-flow conditions and formed stable saline pools. An extensive... -

The Sunda and Banda Arcs are contiguous surface features associated with the convergent boundary between the Southeast Asian and Australian-Indian Ocean plates, and where these... -
Earthquake Risk in Australia
Earthquake risk maps of Australia were prepared using a computer program which selected events from a regional earthquake file and calculated maximum values of acceleration,... -
Variation of crustal mass over the Australian region
Seismic refraction surveys in Australia and nearby marine areas provide data on crustal velocities and layer thicknesses. The averages of these at various places have been used... -
Coronation Hill U-Au mine, South Alligator Valley, Northern Territory: an...
Host rocks to the Coronation Hill U-Au mine have long been regarded as agglomerate occupying a volcanic vent, and, as such, the deposit has been regarded as volcanogenic and... -
Geobiological role of cyanobacterial mats in sedimentary environments:...
Cyanobacterial mats are among the most productive of aquatic photosynthetic systems. They were prevalent during the Precambrian, but now occupy limited, albeit widespread,... -
