  • Groundwater, Mineral Resources and Land Stability in the Tasman Peninsula. 1. Groundwater from Fractured Rocks
    1979/3. Groundwater, mineral resources and land stability in the Tasman Peninsula. W.C. Cromer, R.C. Donaldson P. C. Stevenson V.N. Threader Abstract Groundwater prospects, mineral deposits and land stability are discussed to provide information for a planning study of the Tasman Peninsula. INTRODUCTION This report was written at the request of the Commissioner for Town and Country Planning, and is the result of a map compilation, a search of records and field work during the period 20 - 24 November 1978. 1. Groundwater from fractured rocks P.C. Stevenson The amoun~ of water that may be obtained from the hard rocks of the Peninsula by boreholes is controlled by the composition and conditions of weathering and fracture. The amount of direct information is limited because only eight bore­ holes have been recorded, all at Koonya, Premaydena or Nubeena, but exper­ ience in other parts of the State enable some general comments to be made. The geology of the Peninsula is shown in Figure 1. The Jurassic dolerite, which forms many of the most rugged and remote parts of the Peninsula, has not been drilled for water but is regarded throughout Tasmania as an extremely poor prospect; very hard to drill, almost always dry and where water exists it is hard and saline. It cannot be recommended. The Permian mudstone and fine-grained sandstone have not been drilled in the Peninsula, but elsewhere are reliable producers of good quality groundwater. yields of 20 to 150 l/min and qualities of 200 - 600 mg/l of total dissolved solids are usual.

  • Populations of Tasman Peninsula
    139 POPULATIONS OF TASMAN PENINSULA by L. J. Wood Department of Geography. University of Ta smania (with four tables and four text-figures) Understanding of the characteristics and dynamics of the population permanently resident in Tasman municipality has to recognise that the area receives numerically large influxes of both recreational and tourist groups. Census data suggest that the economy of the peninsula is undergoing a major shift from one reliant on traditional primary industries to one focused on tourism. At the same time, the amenities of the natural landscape have prompted a substantial in-migration of non-conventional lifestylers. Key Words: Tasman Peninsula, popUlation, counterurbanisation, alternative communities, holiday homes, tourism. From SMITH, S.J. (Ed.), 1989: IS HISTORY ENO UGH?

  • GRAVITY SURVEY and STRUCTURE of the FORESTIER PENINSULA, SOUTHERN TASMANIA by David Leaman
    Papers and Proceedings of the Royal Society of Tasmania, Volume 131, 1997 77 GRAVITY SURVEY AND STRUCTURE OF THE FORESTIER PENINSULA, SOUTHERN TASMANIA by David Leaman (with 13 text-figures) LEAMAN, D.E.. , 1997 (31 :viii): Gravity survey and structure of the Forestier Peninsula, southern Tasmania. Pap. Proc. R. Soc. Tasm. 131: 77-84. https://doi.org/10.26749/rstpp.131.77 ISSN 0080-4703. Leaman Geophysics, GPO Box 320C, Hobart, Tasmania, Australia 7001 and Geology Department, University of Tasmania, GPO Box 252-79, Hobart, Tasmania, Australia 7001. A gravity survey coupled with review of regionalmapping has shown that the widespread exposure of Jurassic dolerite across the Foresrier Peninsula is due largely to repetition of a thick sheet by gently ramped Tertiary fault-blocks. Feeders for the sheet appear to be located near the centre of the peninsula and to be related to concealed pre-Permian structures, such as granitoid margins. At least two major fault zones were eroded during the mid Tertiary and these, as well as the peninsula ties to mainland Tasmania and the Tasman Peninsula, now consist of Tertiary materialscovered by Recent sands. The western edge of the East Tasmanian batholith extends approximately north­ south beneath the centre of the peninsula. Keywords: Tasmania, dolerite, structure, Forestier Peninsula, faulting, intrusion. INTRODUCTION This paper documents the firstsemi-regional gravity survey and structural interpretation of the Forestier Peninsula (fig. 1). Previous geological work has been largely limited co regional mapping of the main body of the peninsula (Gulline 1982, 1984), sketch mapping of the Eaglehawk Neck area (Banks et af.
