Abstract:
Forty-two dispersed cuticle taxa are described from late Middle Eocene drill core samples in the Lefroy and Cowan paleodrainages (Kambalda–Norseman region), Western Australia. They are preserved in fluvial-marginal marine sediments of the Pidinga and Werillup Formations. Thirty-four distinct cuticle taxa occur in the richest sample including Cupressaceae, Araucariaceae (Agathis), Podocarpaceae (Dacrycarpus, Acmopyle, Dacrydium), Cunoniaceae, Lauraceae, Myrtaceae, Casuarinaceae (Gymnostoma), Nothofagus subgenus Lophozonia and tribes Embothrieae, Macadamieae and Banksieae of the Proteaceae. The presence of at least 12 taxa of Proteaceae provides further support for palynological evidence of a rich proteaceous component in Eocene Western Australian assemblages.

Abstract:
AbstractStratigraphically and geographically restricted ocellar komatiite flows at Kambalda, Western Australia, appear to represent the products of ground melting of sulphidic sediments by komatiites in lava channels that localized the Fe–Ni–Cu sulphide ores. An immiscible sulphide liquid formed and gravitationally separated from the melted sediment (xenomelt), the resultant buoyant silicate liquid being partly or wholly assimilated by the turbulently convecting komatiite magma. Rarely, the xenomelt gravitationally migrated to the top of flows, and overflowed into the less turbulent lava levees where it collected to form a separate layer overlying a komatiitic layer within a single flow. There was selective preservation of the hybrid felsic layer, as an upper ocellar unit within an ocellar komatiite flow, in lava levees flanking lava channels. The ocellar unit is enriched in elements previously concentrated in the sediments, and shows U–Th–Pb isotopic systematics akin to the underlying sediments. Moreover, the partitioning relationships of U and Pb between the immiscible xenomelt and sulphide liquid enhances the range of U/Pb ratios for components of the ocellar unit, thus allowing sufficient spread of modern uranogenic Pb isotopic ratios to form isochrons, albeit imprecise ones. The range and similarity of model Th/U data from these flows (2.8−3.9) and adjacent sulphidic sediments (2.3−4.4; mostly 2.8−3.9) contrasts with the generally invariable Th/U within Kambalda ultrabasic–basic flows (3.6−3.9), and further supports the ground-melting hypothesis.

Abstract:
AbstractArchaean komatiite volcanics at Kambalda, Western Australia have been metamorphosed to upper greenschist–lower amphibolite grade and have experienced intense though heterogeneously developed polyphase deformation. Despite this, preservation of igneous textural features is often good, particularly in areas which underwent only ‘static style’ metamorphism. Thin lavas from the Tripod Hill Member of the Kambalda Komatiite Formation over the western margin of the Hunt nickel shoot display textural elements and facies variations which are virtually identical to those found in fresher thin komatiite sequences in other Archaean greenstone belts. Four principal flow profile (facies) types are defined, comprising nine subtypes. These represent stages in a facies continuum, ranging from ‘mature’ profiles which comprise thick spinifex textured tops and close packed cumulate bases through to massive, jointed ‘immature’ profiles devoid of mesoscopic spinifex texture. The causes of textural diversity within and between profiles are many and complex. However, facies variations can be attributed mainly to the effects of lava velocity at the time of major heat loss, combined with relative lateral position within any flow. The most mature textural (and geochemical) profiles developed in parts of lavas which had become ponded prior to major heat loss, whereas the least evolved profiles developed along the lateral margins (levees) of moving lavas. The study area komatiites occur as alternating stacks of flows of similar type. This stratigraphy records temporal and spatial shifts in the locus of lava ponding over the western margin of the Hunt nickel shoot. Such shifts may have been caused by irregularities in the underlying volcanic topography and/or by synvolcanic faulting and subsidence.

Full text
Abstract:
In December 2005, a wildfire burnt a large area of semi-arid eucalypt woodland along ~10 km of the Norseman- Coolgardie Road north of Norseman in the Great Western Woodlands (GWW), Western Australia. Few birds used the burnt area in the first year after the fire and these were mainly ground and shrub foraging insectivores. There was no influx of seed-eaters or open-country species as reported for post-fire habitats elsewhere in southern Australia. The greatest number of individuals and species of birds occurred in the second year post-fire when ground and shrub vegetation was floristically most diverse. Canopy foragers were attracted to the burnt area in the second year by an outbreak of psyllid insects on seedling eucalypts. At the same time, bark dwelling arthropods associated with the standing stems of fire-killed eucalypts attracted bark-foragers. From the third year, small insectivorous ground, shrub, and canopy foragers dominated the avifauna on the burnt area. These foraged on fire-killed shrubs, as well as living vegetation, including the lignotuberous regrowth of eucalypts. Bark foragers were uncommon after the second year. Throughout the study, the burnt area had fewer species and individuals than adjacent unburnt habitats. Compared with unburnt woodlands there were few differences in how species foraged on the burnt plots, but most species foraged lower reflecting the stature of the vegetation in the burnt woodland. Nectar-feeders, fruit-eaters, large insectivores, raptors, and parrots, although common in the unburnt woodland, were absent or rare in the burnt area. This reflected the limited regrowth of vegetation on the burnt area, which lacked the structural and floristic complexity of nearby unburnt woodlands. Ground foragers probably commenced nesting on the burnt area in the first year, with shrub and canopy foragers nesting from the second year. However, after five years, there was no evidence of large insectivores, nectar-feeders, raptors, seed-eaters, or foliage-eaters (i.e., parrots) nesting despite their abundance in adjacent unburnt woodland. Some of the unburnt woodlands monitored in this study were even-aged regeneration estimated to be 30–50 years post-fire or logging. Regardless of origin, these even-aged plots lacked the diverse avifauna associated with mature woodlands and suggest that post-fire recovery of birds and vegetation in these woodlands is likely to take decades and probably more than 100 years. If so, human activities that increase fire frequency in the GWW, including climate change and fuel-reduction burns, will have long-term adverse impacts on regional biodiversity exceeding those associated with wildfires in less arid forests and woodlands where rates of recovery are more rapid.

Full text
Abstract:
AbstractB1 subdivisions are narrow foliated zones of stubby, skeletal olivine blades, situated at the top of the granular olivine cumulates (B2) in ponded komatiite lavas. They developed at a late stage in pond crystallization as a result of compaction-related circulation of intercumulus liquids through and along the top of the cumulates. The total thickness of a B1 and its degree of blade parallelism are related to lateral position within ponded lavas. The deeper, hotter and longer-lived core regions generated a thick B1 with a high degree of blade parallelism (ordered B1), whereas the shallower, peripheral regions produced a narrow B1 with a poor degree of blade parallelism (disordered B1), or failed to develop one at all.

Abstract:
AbstractInteractively processed Landsat MSS imagery has been used as an aid to studying the regional geology of approximately 10 800 km2 of terrain at the southeast margin of the Archaean Yilgarn Block in Western Australia. The technique proved successful in extending positions of known lithological contacts and lineaments into poorly exposed, inaccessible areas and in revealing new geological features, especially faults, previously unrecognized at ground level. During this investigation the distribution of granitoids and greenstones was more precisely defined, internal greenstone structures highlighted and three main fault trends were identified: (1) NW–NNW and (2) ENE, both within Archaean shield, and (3) NE–NNE within the transition to adjacent Proterozoic mobile belt. In order for the most information to be extracted from Landsat MSS images it is recommended that, whenever possible, image processing should follow ground-based studies as well as precede them, and that field geologist and Landsat specialist should work at the image processing system together.

Full text
Abstract:
Banksia microphylla leaf fossils and Banksieaeidites zanthus pollen are newly described from late Eocene lignite of the Zanthus-11 borehole, drilled east of Norseman in Western Australia. The leaf fossils are the first known in Banksia to show extreme narrowness (&lt;1.5 mm wide) combined with the xeromorphic trait of margins rolled onto the lower surface so that the diffusely placed stomata are exposed to the outside environment only via grooves on each side of a thick, abaxial midrib. Both this Banksia leaf type and another with encrypted stomata evolved before the widespread initiation of severe climatic aridity in the late Neogene, likely in regions of edaphic infertility and periodic water stress. New interpretations of leaf morphology and foliar evolutionary pathways in Banksia are proposed. Banksia microphylla probably belongs to subgenus Spathulatae, where it strongly resembles many species in the large, wholly Western Australian clade that includes most species in section Oncostylis, series Abietinae. Banksieaeidites zanthus is morphologically consistent with Banksia pollen, and its extremely small size also suggests placement in Spathulatae. The new fossils and other evidence from Zanthus-11 indicate the local presence of quite open, sclerophyll vegetation with conifers, which was unlikely to have been frequently burnt.

Full text
Abstract:
The Norseman mining district in the Archean Yilgarn Block, Western Australia, has produced 140 t of gold and about 90 t of silver from 11.24 × 106 t of ore. The district is located within a metamorphic terrane of mafic and minor ultramafic greenstones, intruded by granite cupolas and swarms of porphyry dykes. The orebodies consist of laminated quartz veins, controlled by narrow (0.5–5 m) reverse shear zones that, in general, follow the contacts of metapyroxenite or porphyry dykes. Petrological studies of four shear zones, exposed on the Regent shaft 14 level, Ajax shaft 10 level, and in the stope above the North Royal shaft 5 level, show that the host rocks were metamorphosed to hornblende–plagioclase amphibolites and actinolite–chlorite rocks at temperatures of 500–550 °C prior to mineralization.At the localities studied, intense wall-rock replacement and low-grade (0.5 g/t) gold mineralization are confined to ductile or brittle–ductile shear structures. Alteration is similar in both ultramafic and mafic greenstones, and consists of an inner zone of biotite–quartz–calcite–plagioclase rock with minor actinolitic hornblende and quartz–calcite–actinolite veinlets, and an outer zone, locally developed, of chlorite–calcite–quartz rock. At an estimated pressure of 3 kbar (300 MPa), fluid temperatures during wall-rock alteration are constrained by the hydrothermal mineral assemblages to 480 ± 30 °C in two shear zones on the Regent shaft 14 level, and to 450 ± 20 °C in one shear zone in the North Royal shaft 5 level stope. The mole fraction of CO2 of the fluids is estimated at [Formula: see text], and the sulphur fugacity at 10−6 bar (10−1 kPa) (at 450 °C), based on the assemblage pyrrhotite + pyrite ± arsenopyrite. The development of an outer chloritic alteration zone at North Royal is related to the lower fluid temperature at this locality.High-grade (up to 75 g/t Au, 283 g/t Ag) veins formed within three of the shear zones studied at fluid temperatures of 400 °C and less, by the successive accretion of quartz laminae, separated by films of retrograde chlorite and sericite. The assemblage of ore minerals in the veins differs from that in the altered wall rocks, and includes disseminated galena, Pb–Bi–Ag tellurides, and native gold, which coprecipitated with the quartz. The orebodies at Norseman show affinities to Phanerozoic and Archean gold skarn deposits.

Abstract:
Patterns of geographic variation in morphological and chemical characters are documented in Eucalyptus diversifolia Bonpl. (soap mallee, white coastal mallee). This species is found in coastal and subcoastal Australia from southern Western Australia to Cape Nelson (western Victoria), with a number of disjunctions in the intervening region. Morphological data from adult plants collected at field localities and seedlings grown under uniform conditions were analysed using univariate and multivariate methods, including oneway ANOVA, multiple comparison tests, non-metric multidimensional scaling (NMDS), nearest neighbour networks, and minimum spanning trees. Seedling material was tested for isozyme polymorphism, and adult leaf flavonoids were analysed using liquid chromatography. Morphological and chemical characters are also documented in E. aff. diversifolia, a closely related but unnamed taxon restricted to ironstone outcrops near Norseman (WA), and putative E. diversifolia- E. baxteri hybrids from Cape Nelson. Congruent patterns in data sets distinguish three groups of E. diversifolia adults and progeny: (1) those to the west of the Nullarbor disjunction; (2) South Australian populations to the east of this disjunction; and (3) those from Cape Nelson. Formal taxonomic recognition of the three forms at subspecific level is established, namely E. diversifolia subsp. diversifolia, E. diversifolia subsp. hesperia, and E. diversifolia subsp. megacarpa. Patterns of geographic affinity between populations are consistent with a hypothesis of genetic exchange between normally disjunct regional populations of E. diversifolia via coastal land-bridges exposed during periodic times of low sea level since the mid Tertiary.

Abstract:
The Munro asbestos mine is hosted by a differentiated ultramafic sill of Archean age. Localized carbonate alteration at the mine has resulted from two separate episodes of CO2 metasomatism, and the fluids were unrelated. The first episode affected only the serpentinized peridotite and occurred at 250 °C. The fluid was a saline brine (up to 24 wt.% NaCl–CaCl2), and had an oxygen isotopic composition of −3‰, and δ13C was equal to −7.8‰. Calcite veins were emplaced into the overlying, fractured pyroxenite at approximately 300–400 °C during the second episode. The salinity of this fluid was only 1–5 equiv. wt.% NaCl, the oxygen isotopic composition was +7.5‰, and δ13C equaled −3 to −5‰. The first episode was probably associated with burial metamorphism (diagenesis) and the second episode with regional metamorphism. The widespread occurrence of two separate stages of CO2 metasomatism in the Abitibi belt and in other well-documented Archean terranes, such as the Norseman–Wiluna greenstone belt in Western Australia, suggests that this may be an important factor in the tectonic evolution and metamorphic history of Archean greensone belts.
