Buchan Phoenix Rising from the Ashes… Communication for the Community by the Community Buchan Phoenix Rising from the ashes… Communication for the community by the community. April 2019 Issue 32 Flying Doctor Wellbeing: Supporting the mental wellbeing of Buchan residents The Royal Flying Doctor Service (RFDS) Victoria’s mental health program ‘Flying Doctor Wellbeing’ is offering services in Buchan. Flying Doctor Wellbeing provides free and confidential mental health and wellbeing services to people living in regional and remote communities. The RFDS is encouraging people, aged 18 or older, who may be experiencing low mood, persistent worry and stress, grief, financial stress or other mental health and wellbeing concerns to reach out and access free Flying Doctor Wellbeing services. Appointments are confidential and do not require a referral from a GP. In Buchan, local Mental Health Clinician Peter Quin supports residents to talk through any concerns, and provides expert advice, resources and strategies for coping. Peter is a Social Worker and specialises in family therapy, crisis intervention and rural and remote mental health. Peter has worked in community health and has a particular interest in addressing the social and environmental determinants impacting upon people’s wellbeing in small rural communities. Peter said, “I love working for RFDS because every day I get the opportunity to help people who live in low population areas to have access to good quality services. I help individuals to identify resources and increase their capacity to care for and support themselves. I think one of the biggest issues impacting the mental health of rural and remote Victorian’s is social isolation, seasonal factors causing stress and the identification of healthy coping strategies.” Peter is available to see clients every second Tuesday at the Buchan Bush Nursing Centre. If you would like to make a free and confidential appoint- ment, speak to the local Bush Nurse or contact the Flying Doctor Wellbeing team on (03) 8412 0480.

News from DELWP about the Burn’s they are working to complete this Autumn. Each of these burns is part of a three-year Joint Fire Management Plan which outlines FFMVic’s bushfire prevention works such as planned burning and fire fuel breaks. DELWP are committed to keeping you informed of these plans and ask that you bear in mind the following factors: • Gippsland has experienced a series of exceptionally dry seasons. This means conditions can be too dry to risk lighting up. Further difficulties arise when rains arrive late, and the weather turns cold, leaving the forest too wet to burn • FFFMVic has been responding to a large number of bushfires both small and large from as early as August 2018 with large campaign fires burning into the current Autumn. This inevitably has put pressure on our ability to deliver in other areas, including planned burning. As a result, DELWP are unable to give you an exact date that burns will go ahead as the final decision to proceed can only be made on the day following monitoring of weather conditions and fuel moisture levels. Indeed, some planned burns may not precede this year. We recommend you regularly seek information about proposed burns near you to stay informed about when the burn may occur. The 'Gelantipy - Butchers Creek' burn may raise questions in the community about why we would want to burn so close to the Nunnett- Timbarra River fire ground. This burn is important to complete at this time as: - together with the bushfire affected area, it provides a strategically located fuel reduction area to prevent the spread of bushfire from the west to the east side of the Murrindal river valley. In fact, there was to be a burn - now within the bushfire affected area - this year which would have complimented this 'Butchers Creek' burn - the burn was part completed in 2017 and all fire breaks are in place. If we do not proceed now, that work will need to be redone in future Please get in touch if you have any questions or concerns about this. We do expect to start on this burning program anytime from this week as conditions allow.

  • Prospecting in Victoria
    PROSPECTING IN VICTORIA 1. What is a Miner’s Right? A Miner’s Right is a permit to prospect for minerals on unreserved Crown Land or Private Land where the permission of the landowner has been granted. 2. What is prospecting / fossicking? Prospecting involves the use of metal detectors, hand tools, pans or simple sluices in the search for gold and gemstones. 3. Why is a Miner’s Right required to prospect for minerals? All minerals belong to the Crown, even on private land. A Miner’s Right transfers the ownership of any minerals found whilst prospecting, to the holder of the Miners Right. 4. Who needs a Miner’s Right? Anyone searching for minerals needs to have an exploration licence, a mining licence or a Miner’s Right. 5. Does that mean that a Miner’s Right is required even if you are fossicking on your own land? Yes. 6. How much is a Miner’s Right? Refer to Earth Resources Fees and Charges 7. How long does a Miner’s Right last? You can purchase a Miner’s Right for 2 or 10 years, but not exceeding 10. 8. Do pensioners, people who are unemployed or people with disabilities receive any concessional discount if they purchase a Miner’s Right? No. 9. Do hobbyists or gemstone seekers require a Miner’s Right? Yes. 10. If a family goes away prospecting and fossicking does each family member need a Miner’s Right? All adults who intend to fossick must have a Miner’s Right. Children under supervision of an adult with a Miner’s Right do not need a Miner’s Right of their own.

  • Fault Geometry As Evidence for Inversion of a Former Rift Basin in the Eastern Lachlan Orogen
    Australian Journal of Earth Sciences (2003) 50, 513–523 Fault geometry as evidence for inversion of a former rift basin in the Eastern Lachlan Orogen D. R. GRAY* AND R. T. GREGORY† School of Geosciences, Monash University, Melbourne, Vic. 3800, Australia. Reactivated faults have controlled the inversion of an inferred rift basin formed on weakly attenuated Silurian crust of the Eastern Lachlan Orogen. These included north-trending faults, considered part of the rift-related extensional faulting and silicic volcanism (Snowy River Volcanics), and northeast- trending Silurian inverted faults in the Ordovician and Silurian basement rocks. The elongate, largely north-trending Lower Devonian Snowy River Volcanics, and limestone and mudstone sequences of the Buchan Group now reflect ~20–30% east–west buckle shortening in the rift sequence (Murrindal Synclinorium) and 10% fault shortening due to reactivation of basement faults (Emu Egg Fault and East Buchan faults). Faults generally have steep dips, older over younger movement sense, and varying dip directions along their lengths. A peculiar fault geometry that shows faults changing dip direction laterally about segments of vertical fault dip suggests fault reactivation. This geometry requires a scissors-type rotational motion in the fault plane with increasing displacement away from fault segments with vertical dip (pivot points). Zones of steep fault dip are characterised by marked folding in the footwall and hanging wall where shortening has been accommodated by folding rather than by fault displacement. Such geometries are not typical of faults in fold- and thrust-belts (e.g. Canadian Rocky Mountains and Appalachian Valley and Ridge Province). These faults show similarities with inverted extensional faults in the High Atlas of Morocco and in the extensional fault patterns in the offshore Otway Basin of southwest Victoria.
