Flinders Ranges: a Proposed Nomination for World Heritage Preliminary Statement of Values Flinders Ranges: A proposed nomination for World Heritage Preliminary statement of values Final technical report – March 2017 Flinders Ranges: A proposed serial nomination for World Heritage – Preliminary statement of values Final technical report – March 2017 Photo 1 Dramatic scenery of ‘Ikara’ or Wilpena Pound, Flinders Ranges, South Australia (Source: Jim Gehling) Status and purpose of this report This ‘Preliminary statement of values’ report is a technical report of the South Australian Government. It has been contributed to by leading Australian-based geologists and palaeontologists at an Expert Workshop held in Adelaide on 1–2 August 2016, and subsequently peer reviewed by these specialists. The report confirms that the exceptional, unique geological features of the Flinders Ranges are worthy phenomena for being considered for World Heritage inscription. This report is intended to be used to inform the development of a World Heritage nomination for the Flinders Ranges, and to assist in communicating to a range of audiences their outstanding geological and palaeontological values. It has been written using non-technical language. A Glossary is provided at the end of the report to explain some of the technical terms that have been used and to identify alternatives to some terminology. This report represents a very preliminary stage in the development of a World Heritage nomination for the Flinders Ranges. To that end, the terminology used and details included in this report are subject to change in a future nomination document. Acknowledgements Appreciation is extended to the geologists and palaeontologists who provided expert input to this report, particularly Mr Stephen Hore, Dr Wolfgang Preiss, Mr Wayne Cowley, Professor Jim Gehling, Professor Mary Droser, Professor John Paterson, Associate Professor Glenn Brock, Dr Diego García-Bellido, Professor Malcolm Walter, Associate Professor Malcolm William Wallace and Dr Peter Kruse. Many thanks are also extended to all those who contributed to the report during and subsequent to the Expert Workshop in Adelaide. i Flinders Ranges: A proposed nomination for World Heritage –

Clarke ([email protected]) and David Willson ([email protected]) Mars Society Australia Mars Society Australia has selected the Arkaroola region in South Australia as its prime area for Mars analogue research. The region is accessible by road and air from Adelaide, the capital of South Australia. Much of the central part of the region is held under private leasehold as a wilderness sanctuary. The lessees are highly supportive of scientific and technological research. The region and its hinterland have a diversity of geological and astrobiological features of interest for Mars research and Mars exploration. These include: GEOLOGY • Modern and ancient (Neoproterozoic, Carboniferous) hydrothermal systems; • Gravel outwash plains of the present desert environment; • Late Proterozoic Wooltana Basalt with localised quartz-haematite breccia veins; • Neoproterozoic evaporitic non-clastic and minor carbonate sediments Of the Callanna and Burra Groups; • Pre-Cretaceous weathering surfaces; • Cretaceous marine shoreline deposits; • Playa lakes • Artesian springs; • Dune fields; • Iron, silica, carbonate and sulphate duricrusts; • Pleistocene high level gravels of fans and pediments, and • Holocene creek gravels.

  • Broken Hill Complex
    Broken Hill Complex Bioregion resources Photo Mulyangarie, DEH Broken Hill Complex The Broken Hill Complex bioregion is located in western New South Wales and eastern South Australia, spanning the NSW-SA border. It includes all of the Barrier Ranges and covers a huge area of nearly 5.7 million hectares with approximately 33% falling in South Australia! It has an arid climate with dry hot summers and mild winters. The average rainfall is 222mm per year, with slightly more rainfall occurring in summer. The bioregion is rich with Aboriginal cultural history, with numerous archaeological sites of significance. Biodiversity and habitat The bioregion consists of low ranges, and gently rounded hills and depressions. The main vegetation types are chenopod and samphire shrublands; casuarina forests and woodlands and acacia shrublands. Threatened animal species include the Yellow-footed Rock- wallaby and Australian Bustard. Grazing, mining and wood collection for over 100 years has led to a decline in understory plant species and cover, affecting ground nesting birds and ground feeding insectivores. 2 | Broken Hill Complex Photo by Francisco Facelli Broken Hill Complex Threats Threats to the Broken Hill Complex bioregion and its dependent species include: For Further information • erosion and degradation caused by overgrazing by sheep, To get involved or for more information please cattle, goats, rabbits and macropods phone your nearest Natural Resources Centre or • competition and predation by feral animals such as rabbits, visit www.naturalresources.sa.gov.au

O pastoral settlements in South Australia. A working station for 135 years, Old Wilpena Station slipped into retirement in 1985. The settlement is now a tranquil archive of pastoral history. Old Wilpena Station is also an important Aboriginal heritage site. Wilpena Pound and the Wilpena Station lands have enduring cultural significance for the Adnyamathanha people of the Flinders Ranges. Wilpena Government House c.1896 "Wilpena Station is one of the most significant pastoral sites in South Australia because it has one of the most continuous and best preserved histories of use in a remote setting… Almost all significant stations with a comparable history are now in ruins. " NPWSA planning document 1989 Aboriginal people, European settlers and their descendants share the pastoral heritage of the Flinders Ranges. The self-guiding ‘Living With Land’ Interpretive Trail explores the themes of self-sufficiency, improvisation and survival on the remote and isolated pastoral settlements of the Flinders Ranges. 1 ABORIGINAL PEOPLE AND PASTORAL HERITAGE “All of my brothers and sisters used to help Dad with the fencing."

An easy-to-navigate pocket guide to the Meeting is also available to delegates. Venue The Annual Meeting will take place in the faculties of Philosophy and Philology on the Blasco Ibañez Campus of the University of Valencia. The Symposium will take place in the Salon Actos Manuel Sanchis Guarner in the Faculty of Philology. The main meeting will take place in this and a nearby lecture theatre (Salon Actos, Faculty of Philosophy). There is a Metro stop just a few metres from the campus that connects with the centre of the city in 5-10 minutes (Line 3-Facultats). Alternatively, the campus is a 20-25 minute walk from the ‘old town’. Registration Registration will be possible before and during the Symposium at the entrance to the Salon Actos in the Faculty of Philosophy. During the main meeting the registration desk will continue to be available in the Faculty of Philosophy. Oral Presentations All speakers (apart from the symposium speakers) have been allocated 15 minutes. It is therefore expected that you prepare to speak for no more than 12 minutes to allow time for questions and switching between presenters. We have a number of parallel sessions in nearby lecture theatres so timing will be especially important.
