Outback TV Background To a significant extent the Australian outback was opened up and developed through self reliance and homesteads and communities helping each other. It is no surprise then that the same happened with the development of free-to-air television reception in the outback. In the years since the first Aussat analogue satellite free-to-air TV services launched in 1985 to be replaced by the Aurora digital satellite platform in 1997 some 460 community groups pooled local resources and developed so called self-help analog TV transmission facilities to terrestrially retransmit the free-to-air TV channels that were available from the satellite. Including the regional and metropolitan areas of Australia there are around 700 self-help analog television sites in Australia operating in the order of 2,800 analog transmitters or roughly 50% to 60% more than those operated by all the commercial free-to-air broadcasters and the ABC and SBS put together. It is therefore somewhat ironic and bewildering that a new free-to-air digital satellite platform called VAST was developed between January 2009 and March 2010 by the broadcasters, DBCDE and Optus that no one thought to consult anyone of those 700 self-help analog television licensees.

  • Basin Inversion and Structural Architecture As Constraints on Fluid Flow and Pb-Zn Mineralisation in the Paleo-Mesoproterozoic S

CC BY 4.0 License. 1 Basin inversion and structural architecture as constraints on fluid 2 flow and Pb-Zn mineralisation in the Paleo-Mesoproterozoic 3 sedimentary sequences of northern Australia 4 5 George M. Gibson, Research School of Earth Sciences, Australian National University, Canberra ACT 6 2601, Australia 7 Sally Edwards, Geological Survey of Queensland, Department of Natural Resources, Mines and Energy, 8 Brisbane, Queensland 4000, Australia 9 Abstract 10 As host to several world-class sediment-hosted Pb-Zn deposits and unknown quantities of conventional and 11 unconventional gas, the variably inverted 1730-1640 Ma Calvert and 1640-1580 Ma Isa superbasins of 12 northern Australia have been the subject of numerous seismic reflection studies with a view to better 13 understanding basin architecture and fluid migration pathways. Strikingly similar structural architecture 14 has been reported from much younger inverted sedimentary basins considered prospective for oil and gas 15 elsewhere in the world. Such similarities suggest that the mineral and petroleum systems in Paleo- 16 Mesoproterozoic northern Australia may have spatially and temporally overlapped consistent with the 17 observation that basinal sequences hosting Pb-Zn mineralisation in northern Australia are bituminous or 18 abnormally enriched in hydrocarbons. This points to the possibility of a common tectonic driver and shared 19 fluid pathways. Sediment-hosted Pb-Zn mineralisation coeval with basin inversion first occurred during the 20 1650-1640 Ma Riversleigh Tectonic Event towards the close of the Calvert Superbasin with further pulses 21 accompanying the 1620-1580 Ma Isa Orogeny which brought about closure of the Isa Superbasin.
