Documentation and Refinement of the Middle to Late Cretaceous Calcareous Nannofossil and Foraminiferal KCCM Zonation

Documentation and Refinement of the Middle to Late Cretaceous Calcareous Nannofossil and Foraminiferal KCCM Zonation

Publication Name: The Sedimentary Basins of WA
Authors: R.J. Campbell, R.W. Howe, J.P. Rexilius & C.B. Foster
Reference Type: Book Section
Date Published: December 2002

 

Abstract:

Petroleum companies operating on the North West Shelf typically employ the composite calcareous microfossil (KCCM) zonation to correlate middle to Upper Cretaceous strata. This zonation combines both calcareous nannofossil and foraminiferal biostrati...

Late Cretaceous Rift Volcanics of the Gippsland Basin, SE Australia – New Insights from 3D Seismic

Late Cretaceous Rift Volcanics of the Gippsland Basin, SE Australia – New Insights from 3D Seismic

Publication Name: Eastern Australian Basins Symposium 2001
Authors: G.J. O'Halloran and E.M. Johnstone
Reference Type: Magazine Article
Date Published: November 2001

 

Abstract:

While both ancient and modern subaerial basaltic successions have been well studied in the field, the detailed three dimensional subsurface architecture of a basaltic volcanic rift terrain has rarely been directly imaged. Recent 3D seismic data have ...

Emperor and Golden Beach Subgroups: The Onset of Late Cretaceous Sedimentation in the Gippsland Basin, SE Australia

Emperor and Golden Beach Subgroups: The Onset of Late Cretaceous Sedimentation in the Gippsland Basin, SE Australia

Publication Name: Eastern Australian Basins Symposium 2001
Authors: T. Bernecker and A.D. Partridge
Reference Type: Magazine Article
Date Published: November 2001

 

Abstract:

The Emperor and Golden Beach subgroups, new subdivisions of the lower part of the Latrobe Group in the Gippsland Basin, are interpreted as basin-wide unconformity-bounded depositional systems that record the key break-up events in the basin during it...

The Sedimentology and Palaeoenvironments of the Late Cretaceous Sherbrook Group in the Otway Basin

The Sedimentology and Palaeoenvironments of the Late Cretaceous Sherbrook Group in the Otway Basin

Publication Name: Eastern Australian Basins Symposium 2001
Authors: G.A. Boyd and S.J. Gallagher
Reference Type: Magazine Article
Date Published: November 2001

 

Abstract:

The first marine incursions that flooded the Otway Basin, southern Australia, during the Late Cretaceous are preserved in the Sherbrook Group. The purpose of this preliminary study is to describe the depositional environments of the sediments of the ...

Late Tertiary-Quaternary Geological Evolution of the Houtman Abrolhos Carbonate Platforms, Northern Perth Basin

Late Tertiary-Quaternary Geological Evolution of the Houtman Abrolhos Carbonate Platforms, Northern Perth Basin

Publication Name: The Sedimentary Basins of WA
Authors: Lindsay B. Collins, Zhong Rong Zhu and Karl-Heinz Wyrwoll
Reference Type: Book Section
Date Published: December 1998

 

Abstract:

The Houtman Abrolhos coral reefs are three shelf-edge carbonate platforms which together form the discontinuously rimmed Abrolhos Shelf. During the Tertiary to Quaternary there was a vertical transition from cool-water ramp sedimentation to reefal pl...

Seismic-stratigraphic interpretation of coastal barrier systems of Late Eocene age, offshore Gippsland Basin

Seismic-stratigraphic interpretation of coastal barrier systems of Late Eocene age, offshore Gippsland Basin

Publication Name: Second South-Eastern Australia Oil Exploration Symposium - Technical Papers
Authors: R. Blake
Reference Type: Book Section
Date Published: December 1986

 

Abstract:

Three seismic-stratigraphic sequences were mapped within the uppermost Latrobe Group at the western end of the offshore Gippsland Basin. The three sequences are interpreted to be Upper Eocene coastal barrier complexes deposited under conditions of lo...
