  • New Wave - by Paul Myers - the Australian - February 01, 2010
    New wave - by Paul Myers - The Australian - February 01, 2010 Barry Grey, head stockman of Roebuck Plains station near Broome, with his trainees. "It's making a difference," Grey says of the program. "It's presenting opportunities that wouldn't have existed." Photo: Leon Mead Source: The Australian GINA Sebastian and Frederick Cox have never heard of Wave Hill or Vincent Lingiari, the Gurindji elder who led the epic 1966 Aboriginal walk-off from English aristocrat Lord Vestey's Northern Territory cattle station. That momentous event, which changed the human landscape of the northern pastoral industry, occurred in another place and time, far removed from contemporary life and its limited opportunities in remote areas of the far north. But Sebastian, 26, and Cox, 18, are two striking examples of young indigenous people building a new future for themselves on country where the legendary skills of Aboriginal stockmen were forged from the mid- 1800s. Beyond the good intentions of many, and the failure of governments to deliver meaningful careers for young Aborigines, indigenous people are taking it upon themselves to turn back the clock, if only nominally, to a time when station jobs were there for the taking and good stockmanship was second nature to any lithe youngster willing to get in the saddle. Once again young Aborigines are finding a future in their own country. Not that the halcyon days – if that’s what they were – can return. The Wave Hill walk-off, which started as a dispute over pay and conditions and evolved into a campaign for land rights, led to stations being depopulated of their workforce, although to some extent that would have occurred anyway.

  • Devonian Great Barrier Reef of the Canning Basin, Western Australia: the Evolution of Our Understanding
    WA Science—Journal of the Royal Society of Western Australia, 97: 153–172, 2014 Devonian Great Barrier Reef of the Canning Basin, Western Australia: the evolution of our understanding P E PLAYFORD *, R M HOCKING & A E COCKBAIN † Geological Survey of Western Australia, 100 Plain Street, East Perth, WA 6004, Australia. * Corresponding author [email protected] † Present address: 104 Hensman Street, South Perth, WA 6151, Australia. Devonian reef complexes are spectacularly exposed along the northern margin of the Canning Basin in Western Australia, and have become renowned as ‘The Devonian Great Barrier Reef’. The geological literature on these rocks dates back to 1884 and the first studies of the biostratigraphy were conducted during the 1940s. Geologists of the Commonwealth Bureau of Mineral Resources were the first to systematically map the Devonian rocks, during the late 1940s and early 1950s, and since then studies by many individuals and organisations have progressively increased knowledge of the stratigraphy and paleontology of these reef complexes. The Geological Survey of Western Australia’s research culminated in 2009 with the publication of a comprehensive bulletin on the geology of the reef complexes. KEYWORDS: allochthonous block, atoll, barrier reef, bioherm, Canning Basin, cyclicity, depositional dip, Devonian, facies, mass extinction, mineralisation, paleontology, pinnacle reef, reef complexes, sequence stratigraphy, stromatolite, stylolitisation. INTRODUCTION and he later described them as being remnants of an ‘ancient barrier reef’ (Wade 1936). Middle and Upper Devonian reef complexes form a series of spectacular limestone ranges that extend for some 350 km along the northern margin of the Canning Basin (Figures 1, 2).
