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. {"type": "Polygon", "coordinates": [[[115.0, -33.75], [116.0, -33.75], [116.0, -33.5], [115.0, -33.5], [115.0, -33.75]]]} 115.0 116.0 -33.75 -33.5 AU-WA HVC_144637 Published_External Seismic Data seismic survey Seismology and Seismic Exploration geophysics petroleum exploration seismic reflection seismic velocity Download the file (misc) documentDigital Download the file (misc) ZIP Unnamed resource documentDigital HTML
