Abstract:
We examined the hydraulic architecture of Eucalyptus camaldulensis seedlings from two climatically different provenances: Petford in north Queensland, which is humid; and Tennant Creek in the Northern Territory, which is semi-arid. Xylem liquid specific permeability (Kg) was calculated from measurements of xylem air permeability (Kg) and hydraulic resistances (R) were also calculated. Embolism susceptibility curves were constructed by measuring Kg in the stems of young seedlings. Canopy leaf areas were mapped and sap flows through the Tennant Creek and Petford seedlings were simulated. Results showed that the permeability of stem wood in the Tennant Creek seedling was about 40% higher than in Petford, and the permeability of its branch wood was about 25% higher. The threshold water potential for initiation of embolisms (Ψt) was slightly lower in Tennant Creek seedlings (- 3.3 MPa compared with - 3.0 MPa) and the number of embolisms with decreasing Ψ was lower for Tennant Creek seedlings. Sap flow simulations showed differences in the distribution of water throughout the seedling canopies. The results are discussed in terms of the ecology of the two eucalypt provenances.

Abstract:
The Au-Cu-Bi- deposits of the Proterozoic Tennant Creek Inlier share geological and geochemical characteristics that indicate strong links in their genesis, yet the diversity in alteration assemblages, metal ratios and zonation patterns reflect variations in ore forming processes that previously have not been explained in detail. The West Peko deposit is representative of Cu-rich, pyrrhotite-bearing mineralisation with intermediate gold grades, in magnetite+ hematite-rich syntectonic ‘ironstones’. By contrast, the high grade Eldorado Au deposit contains minor sulfides and very low Cu grades, similar to several of the larger gold producers in the field (e.g. Juno, White Devil, Nobles Nob), and is also hematite-rich. Au, Chalcopyrite and Bi-sulfosalts were introduced into pre-existing ironside during progressive shearing, either late in the first regional deformation event (D1) or during a second phase of deformation. The occurrence of some Au zones outside ironstones suggests the ore fluids in part followed different flow paths to hose of the ironside-forming fluids. Three chemically and isotopically distinct fluids have been characterised. (i) Ironstone-forming fluids at West Peko and Eldorado were Ca-Na-Cl (-Fe?) brines containing 12-20 weight % total dissolved salts, and reached temperatures of 350-400°C during magnetite deposition. Oxygen and hydrogen isotope compositions of minerals formed at the ironside stage are consistent with an origin of ironstones from formation or metamorphic waters. (ii) The inferred Au-Bi+Cu transport fluid in he Cu- and sulphide-rich West Peko deposit was of low to moderate salinity (3-10 eq. wt. % Na Cl), ~300-350°C and N2 + CH4 – rich. Newly represented phase equilibria among the Fe-silicates stilpnomelane and minnesotaite, chlorite, biotite, sulfides, oxides and carbonates as well as fluid inclusion vapour compositions indicate that the Au-Bi+Cu transport fluid was relatively reducing with near-neutral pH and total dissolved sulphur contents of 0.001m to 0.01m. In the Eldorado Deeps Au- and hematite-rich deposit the Au-transporting fluid also may have been of low-moderate salinity, with Au deposition occurring at ~300°C. The reducing Au-Bi+Cu transport fluid at West Peko resembles primary magmatic or metamorphic water in oxygen and hydrogen isotopic composition. Carbon isotope ratios of Au-sulfide stage carbonates at West Peko point to involvement f organic carbon, probably sourced outside the host Warramunga Formation. (iii) A regionally distributed, oxidising Ca-Na-Cl brine with 20-35 weight percent total dissolved salts, was present prior to, after and probably during ore deposition. Mixing with lower salinity reducing Au-Bi+Cu transport fluid is inferred at West Peko and us suggested to have caused effervescence of N2+CH4 by ‘salting out’, relatively late in the Au depositional stage. An hypothesis of metal transport and deposition is proposed for the Tennant Creek deposits in which gold, copper and bismuth were transported in a reducing fluid and were deposited in the Cu- and sulphide-rich deposits dominantly by oxidation, desulfidation and initial pH increase as the reducing fluid reacted with magnetite+hematite ironstone. Mass transfer modelling indicates that relatively small amounts of ironstone are required to precipitate Au + Bi-sulfides, such as Eldorado, the oxidising brine may have played a significant role in ore deposition either by mixing with a reducing Au-Cu-Bi-transporting fluid, or by producing hematite oxidant additional to any already present in the ironstones. The greater extent of oxidation of the ore fluid in such deposits may have generally prevented saturation of copper minerals, resulting in low Cu grades. Gold is inferred to have been transported dominantly as uncharged bisulfide complexes, although biselenide complexes were potentially important. New thermodynamic data estimated for bismuth complexes are consistent with bismuth transport as uncharged S-H-O-bearing species in the Tenant Creek ore fluids. The existence of high grade Au-Bi deposits outside ironstones is predicted by chemical modelling of mixing between reducing and oxidising fluids, located where structures allowed focused flow of both fluids.

Abstract:
The Early Proterozoic Tennant Creek Inlier, located in northern Australia, has produced over -125 tonnes of gold and -230,000 tonnes of copper from several separate deposits hosted by hydrothermal "ironstones" within the Warramunga Formation. Understanding the origin of these deposits is, in part, dependent on the determination of reliable age constraints on both the mineralisation and its regional environment. Previous studies indicate the gold-copper mineralisation overprints the ironstone host rocks, but had not constrained the time difference between their formation. Isotopic studies of potassic alteration (muscovite) associated with both the gold mineralisation and the ironstone alteration show they are indistinguishable in age, at about 1825 ± 4 Ma. This is contemporaneous with the waning stages of felsic magmatism associated with the Barramundi Orogeny and implies that the magmatism was the source of thermal energy driving the mineralising fluid flow, and supports the interpretation of stable isotope data that there was a magmatic component in that fluid. SHRIMP U-Pb zircon (and baddeleyite) age determinations on crustal components of the Early Proterozoic Tennant Creek Inlier have identified a relatively short (ca 30 my) history for the major magmatic events in the area, including those related to the Barramundi Orogeny, and independently confirms the revisions of the Tennant Creek stratigraphy proposed by the Northern Territory Geological Survey. The oldest known rocks from the area are the volcaniclastic turbidites of the Warramunga Formation, which were deposited in a rapidly subsiding basin at 1862 ± 9 to 1859 ± 13 Ma. Subordinate zircon populations in the greywackes indicate earlier magmatic activity at 1930 ± 12 and 1908 ± 15 Ma. The regional shortening and contemporaneous intrusion of voluminous and chemically homogeneous granites (and associated felsic porphyry dykes), known across northern Australia as the Barramundi Orogeny, occurred here between 1858 ± 12 and 1845 ± 4 Ma. Following uplift, the felsic volcanics and volcaniclastics of the Flynn Subgroup were extruded between 1845 ± 4 and 1827 ± 9 Ma. During this interval, felsic porphyry dykes and minor granite bodies probably related to the Flynn Subgroup volcanism intruded the Warramunga Formation and the lower parts of the Flynn Subgroup. Magma source regions contain components as old as 3.0 Ga, as revealed by zircon inheritance in most of the analysed rocks. The youngest recognised igneous activity in the area are the intrusions of the "Warrego granite" at 1700- 1650 Ma and the Gosse River East granite at 1712 ± 5 Ma. Following the Barramundi Orogeny, deposition of sediments (and volcanics) occurred primarily in the northern and southern parts of the Tennant Creek Inlier. The upper parts of Churchills Head Group, to the north, have a maximum depositional age of 1749 ± 17 Ma, at least 50 Ma younger than the Hatches Creek Group, to the south. The amphibolite-grade metamorphic rocks are not basement to the Tennant Creek area, with U-Pb zircon analyses indicating protoliths ranging in age from 1842 ± 8 to 1827 ± 9 Ma. K-Ar and 40 Ar- 39 Ar of biotite and muscovite ages indicate that metamorphism occurred at about 1700 Ma.

Abstract:

Earthquake backazimuth estimation using a single three -component digital seismograph has been investigated. A three-dimensional principal components method formed the basic computational technique. Other details of the backazimuth estimation procedure were varied to determine the optimum approach. The data set comprised aftershocks of the 1988 Tennant Creek earthquakes, recorded on a number of stations in, or close to, the source zone. Epicentral distances (3.5 to 25 km) were unusually small compared to the data sets of others who have used similar techniques.

Complex geology challenged the accuracy of results. The most likely causes of error were believed to be the interruption of source -receiver wave travel paths by fault planes, and complex site geology. This included outcrops of highly deformed rocks, and proximity to a large intrusive body of anomalous character. Errors of 180° were common, possibly due to the low velocity surface layers.

Single station estimates were compared to reference backazimuths from network locations, determined by "EQLOCL" (SRC, RMIT), a program based on the least -squares travel -time approach. Approximately 75% of backazimuth discrepancies, projected into the range -90 to +90°, were less than or equal to 20°. This outcome indicates that the investigated technique can be successfully used to estimate earthquake backazimuth in at least some complex geologic receiver settings, and at short epicentral distances.
