Abstract:
The Neoproterozoic to Late Paleozoic-aged Amadeus Basin is a large (~170 000 km2) east–west-trending basin, bounded to the south by the Musgrave Province and to the north by the Arunta Block of the Northern Territory. Commercial oil and gas production is established in the northern part of the basin but the southern part is still a frontier exploration area. Vintage and new seismic reflection data have been used with well data along the south-eastern Amadeus Basin to construct a new structural and depositional model. Three major phases of deformation controlling deposition have been identified. The first phase is characterised by a SW–NE trending structural fabric and is thought to be older than the deposition of the first sediments identified above basement (Heavitree and Bitter Springs formations). The second phase corresponds to the Petermann Orogeny (580–540 Ma) and trends in a NW–SE orientation. The third phase is the Alice Springs Orogeny (450–300 Ma) and is oriented W–E to WNW–ESE in this part of the basin. This tectono-stratigraphic model involving three distinct phases of deformation potentially explains several critical observations: the lack of Heavitree reservoir at Mt Kitty-1, limited salt movements before the Petermann Orogeny (~300 Ma after its deposition) and salt-involved structures that can be either capped by the Petermann Unconformity and overlying Cambrian to Devonian sediments, or can reach the present day surface. Finally, this model, along with availability of good quality seismic data, opens new perspectives for the hydrocarbon exploration of the Amadeus Basin. Each of the tectonic phases impacts the primary petroleum system and underpins play-based exploration.

Abstract:
AbstractNearly boron-free kornerupine is locally abundant in pods or lenses of coarse-grained, non-foliated, Mg- and Al-rich rocks that occur at high metamorphic grades in early Proterozoic metapelitic rocks from the Reynolds Range, Northern Territory, Australia. This is the third reported occurrence of boron-free kornerupine worldwide. The samples consist almost entirely of coarse-grained kornerupine and its breakdown products sapphirine, cordierite, and gedrite or orthopyroxene. The kornerupine contains only 0.45 wt.% B2O3, corresponding to 0.098 B atoms per 22 (O, OH), and closely approximates 11:10:11 in terms of molar ratios of (MgO + FeOtotal):Al2O3:SiO2, with XMg = Mg/(Mg + Fetotal) = 0.874. The unusual textures and bulk compositions of the rocks in the pods are interpreted to have resulted from metasomatism and high-grade metamorphism (750 to 800° and ∼ 4.5 kbar) of precursors that may have included sedimentary Mg-rich clays. Rocks containing boron-poor, and relatively boronrich kornerupine (2.18 wt.% B2O3; XMg = 0.892) are separated in outcrop by as little as 10 m of the foliated cordierite-quartzite country rock and other rock types, suggesting that the compositions or amounts of the metasomatic fluids varied on a local scale.

Abstract:
The Onshore Energy Security Program—funded by the Australian Government and conducted by Geoscience Australia—has acquired deep seismic reflection data in conjunction with state and territory geological surveys, across several frontier sedimentary basins to stimulate petroleum exploration in onshore Australia. Here, we present data from two seismic lines collected in SA and NT. Seismic line 08GA-OM1 crossed the Arckaringa and Officer basins in SA and the southern-most Amadeus Basin in NT. Seismic line 09GA-GA1 crossed the northeastern part of the Amadeus Basin and the complete width of the southern Georgina Basin in NT. Structural and sequence stratigraphic interpretations of the seismic lines will be presented here, followed by an assessment of the petroleum potential of the basins. Seismic line 08GA-OM1 also crosses the Neoproterozoic to Devonian eastern Officer Basin. The basin is structurally complex in this area, being dominated by south-directed thrust faults and fault-related folds—providing potential for underthrust petroleum plays. The northern margin of the basin is overthrust to the south by the Mesoproterozoic Musgrave Province. To the north, the Moorilyanna Trough of the Officer Basin is a major depocentre of up to 7,000 m deep. Both seismic lines cross parts of the eastern Amadeus Basin. Seismic line 08GA-OM1 shows that the southern margin of the basin is overthrust to the north by the Musgrave Province with the main movement during the Petermann Orogeny. In the northeast, seismic line 09GA-GA1 crosses two parts of the basin separated by the Paleoproteroozic to Mesoproterozoic Casey Inlier (part of the Arunta Region). The northern margin of the basin is imaged seismically as a southward-verging, thinned-skinned thrust belt, showing considerable structural thickening of the stratigraphic succession. Seismic line 09GA-GA1 was positioned to cross that part of the southern Georgina Basin that was considered previously to be in the oil window. Here, the basin has a complex southern margin, with Neoproterozoic stratigraphy being thrust interleaved with basement rocks of the Arunta Region. The main part of the basin, containing a Neoproterozoic to Devonian succession, is asymmetric, thinning to the north where it overlies the Paleoproterozoic Davenport Province. The well, Phillip–2, drilled adjacent to the seismic line, intersected basement at a depth of 1,489 m, and has been used to map the stratigraphic sequences across the basin.

The Arunta Inlier preserves a complex structural history, subject to a series of igneous, metamorphic and deformational events from the Paleoproterozoic to the mid-Paleozoic. U-Pb detrital zircon ages from Paleoproterozoic and Neoproterozoic sediments at Ormiston Gorge coincide with the timing of various tectonic phases in the Arunta Inlier. First order interpretations suggest that the Northern Arunta Inlier was the source of the oldest zircons recorded at ~1820 Ma, coinciding with the timing of the Stafford Event. The Strangways Orogeny at ~1770 Ma and 1730 Ma is the earliest deformation preserved in the Central Arunta Inlier and is probably the source of zircons accumulated in these sediments. Zircons post-dating the Strangways Orogeny are likely sourced from the Southern Arunta Inlier, coinciding with the Argilke Tectonic Event at ~1680 Ma, the Chewings Orogeny at ~1600 Ma, the Anmatjira Uplift Phase at 1500-1400 Ma and the emplacement of the Teapot Granite Complex at ~1140 Ma. The Neoproterozoic Heavitree Range Quartzite sediments represent initial deposition in the Amadeus Basin, which forms the remnant of a once much larger intracratonic basin in central Australia known as the Centralian Superbasin. The Arunta Inlier was exhumed from beneath the Centralian Superbasin during the Devonian-Carboniferous Alice Springs Orogeny, forming a series of subbasins including the Amadeus, Ngalia and Georgina Basins. North-south crustal compression during this Orogeny reactivated a series of steep north-dipping Mesoproterozoic fault structures including the Redbank shear zone and the Ormiston thrust zone. The northern Amadeus Basin is characterised by coupled basement and cover deformation, producing a series of basement-rooted south-propagating thrusts, which penetrate the basal Heavitree Range Quartzite. Structural cross-sections constructed across the Ormiston region propose a series of splay thrusts within the Ormiston thrust zone, with the basement and Heavitree Quartzite heavily deformed. The conformably overlying Bittersprings Formation comprises salts and evaporates, interpreted as a detachment layer. 40Ar/39Ar muscovite dating of mylonitic shear zones at Ormiston Gorge have constrained ‘peak deformation’ conditions in the region to a minimum age of 350 ± 3 Ma. Mineral assemblages formed in the surrounding areas reflect greenschist to lower amphibolite facies metamorphism, with temperatures reaching at least 350°C.
