The mineralisation is spatially and temporally related to the intrusion of the Cretaceous alkaline porphyries and occurs both within the porphyries and the intruded Permian sedimentary rocks. Both silica-saturated and silica-unsaturated (feldspathoidal) felsic intrusive rocks occur within the complex. Silica-saturated porphyries (quartz monzodiorite to alkali feldspar syenite) are the major hosts for gold mineralisation. Tectonically, the Cygnet porphyry complex falls amongst the alkaline complexes which occur ‘within-plate’ or in rift systems (Müller and Groves, 1997), provinces which are poorly studied for gold mineralisation compared with arc-related complexes. The alkaline porphyries appear to have been formed during the initial stages of opening of the Antarctic–Australian rift, some 97 Ma. It is suggested that the Cygnet mineralisation is a member of an unusual class of gold deposits associated with alkaline rocks intruded in a rift setting. Mount Dromedary, in southeast NSW, is possibly an analogue and is also of Cretaceous age. The potassic igneous rocks and the overlying sediments have been affected by a variety of hydrothermal alteration types including potassic, silicic, calc-silicate, phyllic, propylitic and argillic. The known alteration and associated mineralisation occurs in several separate areas and do not exhibit any distinct mineral zoning. There are two major types of mineralisation: (a) porphyry-hosted gold mineralisation where the gold occurs in: – hydrothermally-altered porphyries as disseminations; – siliceous and pyritic breccias; – quartz veins; and – pyritic veinlets. (b) sedimentary-hosted gold mineralisation, with the Truro Tillite, Woody Island Siltstone and fossiliferous mudstone (Bundella Formation) being the main host rocks. Mineralisation occurs as: – disseminations (replacing calcareous fossils and pebbles); – in small pyritic veinlets; and – in quartz veins; The sedimentary-hosted gold mineralisation is related to the intrusion of the porphyries, but appears to have been formed at a late stage and at lower temperatures. The fluid inclusions in quartz from hydrothermal breccias and quartz veins exhibit a wide range of homogenisation temperatures and salinities. Highly saline fluid inclusions appear to have been formed directly from exsolved magmatic fluids rather than by phase separation. Spasmodic brecciation, with repeated fracturing and resealing of the rocks (i.e. lithostatic-hydrostatic pressure fluctuations), appear to be the main cause for the fluid inclusions showing a variety of salinities and homogenisation temperatures. The early-formed mineralising fluids appear to be dominantly of magmatic origin and are characterised by high oxidisation

Even when “fresh-minted”, minerals such as monazite, xenotime, allanite and zircon are compositionally and structurally complex. The complexity increases many times during low-temperature alteration processes, such as interaction with hydrothermal fluids and weathering. Progress has, of course, been expedited by the introduction of a range of exciting new technologies, especially in structure determinations. On re-reading the excellent 2002 review of accessory mineral research by Poitrasson et al., one is struck by how far the subject area has advanced in 12 years. We felt that this was an opportune time to bring together a group of Earth scientists with special expertise in accessory minerals to outline their current research interests, to share ideas and to consider productive future research directions.

  • FRAPT Floodplain Risk Assessment Guidelines
    Floodplain Risk Assessment Guidelines for Municipal Councils in Tasmania Guidelines for consistent floodplain risk assessment in Tasmania SESSTATE EMERGENCY SERVICE Guidelines for consistent floodplain risk assessment in Tasmania Floodplain risk assessments in Tasmania Flooding in a natural process. Many towns are located within the floodplain and derive social, economic and environmental benefits from occupying these areas. However, floods can impose significant costs on these communities if flood risk is inadequately managed. Flooding is one of the highest risk natural hazards that pose a threat to Tasmania1. Flooding was the second most costly natural hazard between 1967 and 2005, with the average annual cost of flooding in Tasmania estimated to be $6.9million2. Although many Councils will have their own risk management framework for managing natural hazards, the use of flood study information in local flood risk management decision-making is “…generally inconsistent and limited in some instances”3. Context of these guidelines Councils provide leadership at the municipal level for emergency management in Tasmania. This includes chairing Municipal Emergency Management Committees (MEMCs) that undertake municipal level all-hazards risk assessments and coordinate the treatment of these risks at the local level. Many Councils also directly undertake floodplain risk management activities. These guidelines are aimed at Councils and MEMCs whose risk profile includes significant risks posed by flooding hazards, and are intended to assist with the conduct of detailed flood specific risk assessments that may be required to compliment municipal level all-hazards risk assessments. These Guidelines summarise a method for the assessment of floodplain risks that is consistent with the revised 2015 National Emergency Risk Assessment Guidelines (NERAG)4,5 and the Australian Emergency Management floodplain risk management guideline (AEM7)6.

  • Black and White Children in Welfare in New South Wales and Tasmania, 1880-1940
    ‘Such a Longing’ Black and white children in welfare in New South Wales and Tasmania, 1880-1940 Naomi Parry PhD August 2007 THE UNIVERSITY OF NEW SOUTH WALES Thesis/Dissertation Sheet Surname or Family name: Parry First name: Naomi Abbreviation for degree as given in the University calendar: PhD School: History Faculty: Arts and Social Sciences Title: ‘Such a longing’: Black and white children in welfare in New South Wales and Tasmania, 1880-1940 Abstract 350 words maximum: When the Human Rights and Equal Opportunities Commission tabled Bringing them home, its report into the separation of indigenous children from their families, it was criticised for failing to consider Indigenous child welfare within the context of contemporary standards. Non-Indigenous people who had experienced out-of-home care also questioned why their stories were not recognised. This thesis addresses those concerns, examining the origins and history of the welfare systems of NSW and Tasmania between 1880 and 1940. Tasmania, which had no specific policies on race or Indigenous children, provides fruitful ground for comparison with NSW, which had separate welfare systems for children defined as Indigenous and non-Indigenous. This thesis draws on the records of these systems to examine the gaps between ideology and policy and practice. The development of welfare systems was uneven, but there are clear trends. In the years 1880 to 1940 non-Indigenous welfare systems placed their faith in boarding-out (fostering) as the most humane method of caring for neglected and destitute children, although institutions and juvenile apprenticeship were never supplanted by fostering. Concepts of child welfare shifted from charity to welfare; that is, from simple removal to social interventions that would assist children's reform.

These types differ in their distribution character, carbon isotope composition, and graphitization temperatures calculated by the Raman spectra of carbonaceous material (RSCM) geothermometry. Supracrustal rocks of the Keivy Terrane 13 contain extremely isotopically light (δ CPDB = –43 ± 3‰) carbon. Presumably, its source was a methane–aqueous fluid. According to temperature calculations, this carbon matter and the host strata underwent at least two stages of metamorphism in the west of the Keivy Terrane and one stage in 13 the east. The CM isotope signatures of several samples of kyanite schists (δ CPDB = –33 ± 5‰) are close to those of oils and oil source rocks, and they indicate an additional carbon reservoir.
