Abstract:
The Weena Trough and the Milpera Depression in the SW Cooper Basin contains some unusually thick Permian coal seams. Their development is linked to the Late Carboniferous-Early Permian glacial palaeoclimates, the slow subsidence resulting from their flanking structural location, and the isolation of the peat swamps from the main fluvial drainage systems.
