The exemption on granting mining and exploration licences within the North West VIMP initiative area will be partially lifted during the tender process. Tender areas have only been defined around the south eastern part of the initiative area. The remainder of the initiative area will be available for licence applications submitted by the standard process. Regions with potential to host previously unidentified gold and/or base metal mineralisation have been outlined. These were identified by detailed interpretation of existing company airborne geophysical data, summary of recent company exploration work, compilation of mineralisation styles within goldfields and other commodities, modelling of Murray Basin sediment cover over Palaeozoic basement, together with the results of recent surface mapping in areas adjacent to the North West VIMP initiative area. Many of these prospective areas are possible repetitions of the styles of mineralisation observed in the flanking Palaeozoic, and have been relatively unexplored due to poor exposure or blanketing by sediments of the Murray Basin. Structural characteristics such as regional structural highs and brittle faults and fractures have been identified as features focusing gold mineralisation. Other geological environments known to host gold include quartz free auriferous dark carbonaceous slates, greenstone hosted gold and base metals, granite hosted gold and Stawell-type mineralisation. Known goldfields still represent attractive exploration targets. All currently operating gold mines in Victoria are within historical goldfields and have often doubled previous past production. Thumbprint magnetic anomalies also present potential primary diamond targets under an overburden of barren Murray basin sediments. Potential also exists for additional mineral sands, brown coal and bentonite resources within the Murray Basin sediments as well as additional near surface gypsum deposits. 4 GEOLOGY AND PROSPECTIVITY - SOUTHERN MARGIN MURRAY BASIN 1 Introduction report area.

Shallow thicknesses of Murray Basin sediments overly the Palaeozoic basement over much of this area. The geophysical interpretation focuses on the pre-existing company data which covered the majority of these mapsheets. A preliminary appraisal of the new airborne geophysical data collected for the remainder of the North West VIMP initiative area as part of the VIMP programme is presented in Willocks (1995, [21445]). A complete outline of the work conducted within Exploration Licences in the North West VIMP initiative area is presented in Rooney (1995, [21373]). The report aims to detail the styles of primary mineralisation within the fringing Palaeozoic basement as well as areas within the Murray Basin where the depth of sedimentary cover overlying Palaeozoic basement is less than 150 m. Areas prospective for primary mineralisation have been outlined and combined with images developed from the airborne geophysical data.

Bishop1 Open-File Report 99-50-Q 2000 This report is preliminary and has not been reviewed for conformity with the U. S. Geological Survey editorial standards or with the North American Stratigraphic Code. Any use of trade names is for descriptive purposes only and does not imply endorsements by the U. S. government. U. S. DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR U. S. GEOLOGICAL SURVEY Consultant, Wyoming PG-783, contracted to USGS, Denver, Colorado FOREWORD This report was prepared as part of the World Energy Project of the U.S. Geological Survey. In the project, the world was divided into 8 regions and 937 geologic provinces. The provinces have been ranked according to the discovered oil and gas volumes within each (Klett and others, 1997). Then, 76 "priority" provinces (exclusive of the U.S. and chosen for their high ranking) and 26 "boutique" provinces (exclusive of the U.S. and chosen for their anticipated petroleum richness or special regional economic importance) were selected for appraisal of oil and gas resources. The petroleum geology of these priority and boutique provinces is described in this series of reports. The purpose of this effort is to aid in assessing the quantities of oil, gas, and natural gas liquids that have the potential to be added to reserves within the next 30 years. These volumes either reside in undiscovered fields whose sizes exceed the stated minimum- field-size cutoff value for the assessment unit (variable, but must be at least 1 million barrels of oil equivalent) or occur as reserve growth of fields already discovered.

  • James Watkins
    JAMES WATKINS 1821 James Watkins was born circa 1821 at Carmarthen Town, Carmarthenshire, Wales to Thomas Watkins (a blacksmith) and Rachel nee Jones. 06/08/1846 James Watkins married Anne Thomas the daughter of Richard Thomas, a ‘Collier’ in the Registry Office in the district of Merthry Tydfil, Glamorganshire, Wales. At time of marriage James was residing at Tirfounder, Aberdare, occupation - Collier. Ann was residing at Mill Street, Aberdare, occupation - Mantua Maker. 29/01/1848 James and Anne Watkins welcomed the birth of their first child a son, William Watkins who was born at the family home in Cae Melyn, Aberdare, Glamorgan, Wales. The birth certificate records James' occupation as 'Collier'. 02/09/1850 James and Anne Watkins welcomed the birth of their second child a daughter, Mary Watkins who was born at the family home on Cardiff Road, Aberdare, Glamorgan, Wales. The birth certificate records James’ occupation as 'Miner'. 1851 From the Welsh Census: James Watkins, aged 30 was recorded living at Aberaman Road, Walwen with his wife Anne and their two children William and Mary. 1855 About 1855, notations made on the death certificates of James and Anne show that a third child was born whom they named Elizabeth. It is not known what happened to baby Elizabeth but it appears she died the same year or could have been a still born baby. 05/09/1855 James Watkins sailed out of Liverpool, Lancashire, England with his wife Anne and their two children William and Mary on board the sailing ship, ‘Lightning’, bound for Australia. 25/11/1855 James Watkins, his wife and their two children William and Mary sailed into Hobson’s Bay, Melbourne on board the sailing ship, ‘Lightning’.

  • Miocene Wood from the Latrobe Valley Coal Measures, Victoria
    Miocene wood from the LaTrobe Valley coal measures, Victoria,. Australia DAVID R. GREENWOOD GREENWOOD, DAVID R., 30.9.2005. Miocene wood from the LaTrobe Valley coal measures, Victoria, Australia. Alcheringa 29, 351-363. ISSN 0311 5518. An initial study of a collection of fossil conifer wood is reported from the late early Miocene Yallourn Clays, an interseam unit intergrading into the base of the early to middle Miocene Yallourn seam of the LaTrobe Valley, Victoria in southeastern Australia. The fossil wood shares characteristics with the modern genera Dacrycarpus and Dacrydium. On the basis of contiguous, uniseriate tracheid pitting and 1-2 podocarpoid cross field pits, it is placed in the form genus Podocarpoxylon, and the new species P. latrobensis. The wood is compared with extant Podocarpaceae and other Australian fossil woods. Its ring anatomy is consistent with low temperature or rainfall seasonality in the early Miocene. David R.
