Hill Landscape Evolution of Far Western New South Wales
REGOLITH AND LANDSCAPE EVOLUTION OF FAR WESTERN NEW SOUTH WALES S.M. Hill CRC LEME, Department of Geology and Geophysics, University of Adelaide, SA, 5005 INTRODUCTION linked with a period of deep weathering and an erosional and sedimentary hiatus (Idnurm and Senior, 1978), or alternatively The western New South Wales landscape contains many of the denudation and sedimentation outside of the region I areas such as elements that have been important to the study of Australian the Ceduna Depocentre (O’Sullivan et al., 1998). Sedimentary landscapes including ancient, indurated and weathered landscape basin development resumed in the Cainozoic with the formation remnants, as well as young and dynamic, erosive and sedimentary of the Lake Eyre Basin in the north (Callen et al., 1995) and the landforms. It includes a complex landscape history closely related Murray Basin in the south (Brown and Stephenson, 1991; Rogers to the weathering, sedimentation and denudation histories of et al., 1995). Mesozoic sediments in the area of the Bancannia major Mesozoic and Cainozoic sedimentary basins and their Basin (Trough) have been traditionally considered as part of the hinterlands, as well as the impacts of climate change, eustacy, Eromanga Basin, which may have been joined to the Berri Basin tectonics, and anthropogenic activities. All this has taken place through this area. Cainozoic sediments in the Bancannia Basin across a vast array of bedrock types, including regolith-dominated have been previously described within the framework of the Lake areas extremely prospective for mineral exploration. Eyre Basin (Neef et al., 1995; Gibson, this volume), but probably PHYSICAL SETTINGS warrant a separate framework. -

Francis Barrallier, Explorer, Surveyor, Engineer, Artillery Officer, Aide-De-Camp, Architect and Ship Designer: Three Years in New South Wales (1800-1803)
FRANCIS BARRALLIER, EXPLORER, SURVEYOR, ENGINEER, ARTILLERY OFFICER, AIDE-DE-CAMP, ARCHITECT AND SHIP DESIGNER: THREE YEARS IN NEW SOUTH WALES (1800-1803) VALERIE LHUEDE' Ensign Barrallier [... discharged] the duties of Military Engineer and Artillery Officer, superintending the Military Defences, Batteries and Cannon of this Settlement, in addition to which he has most arduously and voluntarily executed the duties of Civil Engineer and Surveyor to the advancement of the Geography and the Natural History of the Territory.2 I have informed you [Sir Joseph Banks] in my several letters of the great use Ensign Barrallier, of the NSW Corps, was of to me and the public, first in going to the southward and surveying the coast from Wilson's Promontory to Western Port; next in surveying Hun ter's River, where he went twice; and since then in making journey to the mountains, which was introductory to his undertaking the journey he afterwards performed. [...] As Col. Paterson has thought proper [...] to write me officially that Mr. Barrallier's excursions were contrary to the Duke of York's instructions, I found myself obliged to give him up, and relinquish this highly desirable object for the present. I [was] concerned at it, as the young man has such ardour and perseverance that I judged much public benefit would have resulted to his credit and my satisfaction. [...] In conse quence, I [...] claimed him as my aide-de-camp, and mat the object of discovery should not be totally relinquished, I sent him on an embassy to the King of the Mountains. Governor Philip Gidley King3 Chris Cunningham, in his book Blue Mountains Rediscovered* quotes Mark Twain in Following the Equator (1831) as saying, "Australian history is full of surprises, and adventures, and incongruities, and contradictions and incredibilities, but they are all true, they all happened". -

PAPERS Department of Geology University of Queensland Volume 11 Number 4 PAPERS Department of Geology »University of Queensland VOLUME 11 NUMBER 4 The Tweed and Focal Peak Shield Volcanoes, Southeast Queensland and Northeast New South Wales . A. EWART, N.C. STEVENS and J.A. ROSS P. 1 - 82 1 THE TWEED AND FOCAL PEAK SHIELD VOLCANOES, SOUTHEAST QUEENSLAND AND NORTHEAST NEW SOUTH WALES by A. Ewart, N.C. Stevens and J.A, Ross ABSTRACT •Two overlapping shield volcanoes of Late Oligocène — Early Miocene age form mountainous country in southeast Queensland and northeast New South Wales. The basaltic-rhyolitic volcanic formations and the putonic rocks (gabbros, syenites, monzonites) of the central complexes are described with regard to field relations, mineralogy, geochem istry and petrogenesis. The Tweed Shield Volcano, centred on the plutonic complex of Mount Warning, comprises the Beechmont and Hobwee Basalts, their equivalents on the southern side (the Lismore and Blue Knob Basalts), and more localized rhyolite formations, the Binna Burra and Nimbin Rhyolites. The earlier Focal Peak Shield Volcano is preserved mainly on its eastern flanks, where the Albert Basalt and Mount Gillies Volcanics underlie the Beechmont Basalt. A widespread conglomerate formation separates formations of the two shield volcanoes. Mount Warning plutonic complex comprises various gabbros, syenite and monzonite with a syenite-trachyte-basalt ring-dyke, intrusive trachyandesite and comen dite dykes. The fine-grained granite of Mount Nullum and the basaltic sills of Mount Terragon are included with the complex. Each phase was fed by magma pulses from deeper chambers. Some degree of in situ crystal fractionation is shown by the gabbros, but the syenitic phase was already fractionated prior to emplacement. -
