Abstract:
Sedimentological analysis of cored sections within the Merrimelia Formation (basal Gidgealpa Group, Cooper Basin, S.A.) reveals a complex glacigenic environment, including glacio-lacustrine, deltaic, shorezone, fluvial, aeolian and other terrestrial facies. These facies are observed within terminoglacial and proglacial environments, and interfinger constantly throughout the Merrimelia Formation, exhibiting rapid environment change related to position of the ice sheet. Detailed sedimentological and petrological analysis, suggests that Tirrawarra sandstone-type facies belongs within the Merrimelia depositional realm. Provenance data indicates that the lithic component of the Tirrawarra Sandstone, is sourced from reworked Merrimelia coeval depositional facies. A high proportion of labile grains, which are commonly observed in the Merrimelia Formation, are only observed rarely in the Tirrawarra Sandstone (sensu stricto). It is proposed that the fluvial sandstones of the Merrimelia Formation are part of the same fluvial deposystem as the Tirrawarra Sandstone (sensu stricto) and the two sandstone sequences are the natural progression of coarsening sediment as more detritus was released from melting glaciers. It is suggested that there no longer remains any sedimentological, stratigraphical or petrographical reasons why the Tirrawarra Sandstone should not be included within the Merrimelia Formation. It is further proposed that all the braided glacio- fluvial sandstones within the Merrimelia Formation and Tirrawarra Sandstone (sensu stricto) be grouped together as 'Tirrawarra-type' facies within the Merrimelia glacigenic domain.The concept that the glacio-fluvial sandstones within the Merrimelia Formation are of the same genetic origin as the Tirrawarra Sandstone (sensu stricto), must point to the economic potential of similar sandstones found throughout the Merrimelia Formation. The thickness, sediment style and lateral extent of the proglacial braidplains is controlled by the duration of glacial melting. The Merrimelia Formation reveals a sequence of major freezing and thawing episodes with the overlying Patchawarra Formation representing the cessation of glacial influence in the Cooper Basin. Therefore, the youngest 'Tirrawarra-type' sandstone facies found at the top of the Merrimelia Formation is likely to contain the least amount of labile grains, a highly rigid siliceous framework and will be well sorted. The risk of lower reservoir quality increases down section where, with time, freezing dominated over thawing and the sediments were less rinsed, and where the resultant sandstones are more likely to be thin, more poorly sorted and chemically immature with a high proportion of labile framework grains. Thus compositional variation, controlling the diagenetic overprint, together with sandstone facies and bedform style exert profound control on the reservoir quality in the Tirrawarra-Moorari Field area, on potential gas reservoirs in the Merrimelia Formation.

Abstract:
Robert Bedford (1874–1951), based in the isolated community of Kyancutta in South Australia, was a unique contributor to world geology, specifically in the field of meteorites and fossil archaeocyatha. Born Robert Arthur Buddicom in Shropshire, UK, he was an Oxford graduate who worked as a scientist in Freiberg, Naples, Birmingham and Shrewsbury as well as with the Natural History Museum, Kensington and the Plymouth Museum in the United Kingdom. He was a Fellow of the Geological Society of London, 1899–1910. In 1915, Buddicom changed his surname to Bedford and relocated to South Australia. During the 1920s, Bedford expanded his geological interests with the establishment of a public museum in Kyancutta in 1929. This included material previously collected and stored in the United Kingdom before being sent to Australia. Bedford was very successful in collecting material from the distant Henbury meteorite craters in Australia's Northern Territory, during three separate trips in 1931–1933. He became an authority on meteorites with much Henbury material being sent to the British Museum in London. However, Bedford's work on, and collecting of, meteorites resulted in a serious rift with the South Australian scientific establishment. Bedford is best known amongst geologists for his five taxonomic papers on the superbly preserved lower Cambrian archaeocyath fossils from the Ajax Mine near Beltana in South Australia's Flinders Ranges with field work commencing in about 1932 and extending until World War II. This research, describing thirty new genera and ninety-nine new species, was published in the Memoirs of the Kyancutta Museum, a journal that Bedford personally established and financed in 1934. These papers are regularly referenced today in international research dealing with archaeocyaths.

Thompson, Mark. "THE DEVELOPMENT GEOLOGY OF THE TUBRIDGI GAS FIELD." APPEA Journal 32, no. 1 (1992): 44. http://dx.doi.org/10.1071/aj91005.

Full text
Abstract:
The Tubridgi Gas Field is located in the south of the Barrow Sub-basin, onshore in the Carnarvon Basin, Western Australia. The accumulation was discovered by Pan Pacific Petroleum NL in June 1981 with the drilling of the Tubridgi-1 well. Subsequent to Tubridgi-1, eight appraisal wells have been drilled, six of which were successful. The latest wells, Tubridgi-7 and-8, drilled in September 1990 by current operator Doral Resources NL, have enabled geological and petrophysical models for the field to be refined. These models were utilised for reserve determinations which were used to negotiate gas supply contracts and secure project financing to ensure the fields successful commercial development. Tubridgi gas is trapped within a broad, low relief, northeast-trending anticlinal closure. Reservoirs for the accumulation are the Middle to Upper Triassic Mungaroo Formation, Upper Cretaceous Flacourt Formation of the Barrow Group and Birdrong Sandstone of the Cretaceous Winning Group. All three units exhibit porosities averaging 29-30 per cent, with permeabilities of 3-16 D in the Mungaroo and Flacourt Formations and 157 mD in the Birdrong Sandstone. Vertical seal for the accumulation is the Muderong Shale of the Winning Group.The Tubridgi Gas Field is the first onshore Carnarvon Basin hydrocarbon accumulation to be commercially developed. Gas production into the Dampier-to-Bunbury Natural Gas Pipeline commenced on 26 September 1991 and within one month had reached contract volumes averaging 22 MMCFD (623 000 m3/d). Field life is anticipated to be ten years.

Full text
Abstract:
The colonial artist Eugene von Guérard travelled extensively throughout south-eastern Australia sketching thousands of views during his three-decade-long sojourn in Australia. His field drawings are renowned for their fidelity to nature and observational accuracy, but the validity of the latter claim depends on comparing drawings with the view at the sites where he sketched. The location of the view in some artworks, such as Mount Kosciusko, seen from the Victorian Border, has eluded art historians and aficionados who have ventured into the field. This article discusses the collation of clues from historical narratives, maps and surveying techniques to limit the search area for the vantage point where he sketched the view on which he based his painting of the Kosciuszko massif. Novel use of spatial technology utilising satellite imagery, Global Positioning System (GPS) and Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) data, particularly digital elevation models, to locate the actual site is explored, and the topographical accuracy of his sketches evaluated when compared with photographs taken from close to the site. Finally, the potential value of using spatial technology in art history field work is discussed.

Abstract:
Australian Alps is a fascinating guide to Kosciuszko, Alpine and Namadgi National Parks. It introduces the reader to some of Australia’s highest mountains, their climate, geology and soils, plants and animals and their human history. It traces the long-running conflicts between successive users of the mountains and explores the difficulties in managing the land for nature conservation. The book gives credit to little-known or understood stories of the people who have worked to establish better understanding of the Alps, especially their vital role as the major water catchments for south-eastern Australia. This new edition updates many themes, including the involvement of Aboriginal people in the region, catchment function and condition, pest plants and animals, fire and the issue of climate change. Written by a specialist with over 25 years’ experience in community education in and about the Australian Alps National Parks, this new edition features many excellent natural history and historical photographs. Ideal as support information for field trips, it will make a wonderful memento of an alpine visit. This book acts as a detailed companion to park interpretive material and to topic-specific field guides: it caters for readers who want a broad overview of areas of interest they will come across in a visit to the mountains.
