Convergent margin metallogenesis constrains onset of subduction on Earth
Convergent margins are a hallmark feature of modern style plate tectonics. One expression of their operation is metallogenesis, which therefore may yield important insights into... -
Archean tectonic processes from seismic reflection surveys of the Superior,...
Following deep seismic reflection surveys on the Yilgarn and Pilbara cratons by Geoscience Australia with the Geological Survey of Western Australia and on the Superior Craton... -
A revised Proterozoic tectono-stratigraphy of the South Nicholson region,...
New SHRIMP U-Pb detrital zircon geochronology on Mesoproterozoic and Paleoproterozoic siliciclastic rocks from the South Nicholson region, in concert with recently acquired... -
New insights into the offshore Otway Basin
Geoscience Australia has undertaken a regional seismic mapping study of the offshore Otway Basin extending across the explored inner basin to the frontier deep-water region.... -
Onshore active seismic and passive seismic database
The active seismic and passive seismic database contains metadata about Australian land seismic surveys acquired by Geoscience Australia and its collaborative partners. For... -
Geological architecture of the Lake Eyre Basin and its influence on...
The Lake Eyre surface water catchment covers around 1,200,000 km2 of central Australia, about one-sixth of the entire continent. It is one of the largest endorheic river basins... -
Neotectonic Features in the Snowy Monaro Region, NSW
The Snowy Monaro region of NSW hosts infrastructure critical to Australia’s water and energy security. The region also contains several neotectonic features that show evidence... -
Multilayered chronostratigraphic interpretation of the world's largest...
In Australia, wide-spread sedimentary basin and regolith cover presents a key challenge to explorers, environmental managers and decision-makers, as it obscures underlying rocks... -
A new perspective on regional structural architecture across the offshore...
Geoscience Australia has undertaken a regional seismic mapping study of the offshore Otway Basin extending across the explored inner basin to the frontier deep-water region.... -
Tectonic geomorphology and Holocene uplift rates of the Lae Urban Area,...
The city of Lae is Papua New Guinea (PNG)’s second largest, and is the home of PNG’s largest port. Here, a convergence rate of ~50 mm/yr between the South Bismarck Plate and the... -
Thermo-chemical inversion of the Australian lithospheric mantle (KY22)
Lithospheric structure and composition have direct relevance for our understanding of mineral prospectivity. Aspects of the lithosphere can be imaged using geophysical inversion... -
Large earthquake recurrence in the Snowy Monaro region, first dated Holocene...
The Snowy Monaro region hosts major infrastructure critical to Australia’s energy and water security. It also hosts a number of active faults capable of hosting large... -
Large earthquake recurrence on the Willunga Fault, South Australia
In mid-2022 two paleoseismic trenches were excavated across the Willunga Fault at Sellicks Hill, ~40 km south of Adelaide, at a location where range front faulting displaces a... -
Thermo-chemical inversion of the Australian lithospheric mantle (FR23)
Lithospheric structure and composition have direct relevance for our understanding of mineral prospectivity. Aspects of the lithosphere can be imaged using geophysical inversion... -
Magnetotelluric (MT) Sites database
The Magnetotelluric (MT) Sites database contains the location of sites where magnetotelluric (MT) data have been acquired by surveys. These surveys have been undertaken by... -
Geoscience Australia Vocabularies - Geoscience Database Vocabulary Terms
Geoscience Australia's geoscientific relational databases use look-up tables to describe the data stored within. These look-ups contain, but are not limited to, information... -
Australian continental-scale multilayered chronostratigraphic interpretation...
A key issue for explorers in Australia is the abundant sedimentary and regolith cover obscuring access to underlying potentially prospective rocks. Multilayered... -
Timing and tectonic setting of sediment-hosted Pb-Zn mineralisation in...
Sediment-hosted Pb-Zn mineralisation is concentrated in the post-rift, syn-inversion fraction of the north Australian Paleoproterozoic Calvert Superbasin. Hangingwall uplift...
