    9 February 2018 Murray River Loxton Cruise 2018 Dates Announced Captain Cook Cruises has announced the 2018 dates for its popular seven-night Loxton cruises onboard small ship paddle-wheeler the Murray Princess. The Mannum to Loxton cruise will depart Mannum on Friday 23rd November at 4.30pm and disembark at Loxton on Friday 30th November at 9am. The Loxton to Mannum cruise will depart Loxton on Friday 30th November at 4.30pm and disembark at Mannum on Friday 7th December at 9am This historic 339km voyage between Mannum to Loxton in South Australia only operates once every year and follows in the wake of the great 19th century pioneers on a unique journey through three Locks. “We are very excited to be operating this incredible cruise again in 2018. Both cruises are very popular with guests who want to explore Australia’s outback history between Loxton and Mannum. It is also a part of Australia not many people have seen or experienced.” Explains Donna Gauci, General Manager, SeaLink South Australia. The Loxton cruises feature overnight stops at Katarapko Creek, Cobdogla, Overland Corner, Old Distillery, Morgan, Sunnydale and River View Lodge. Days are filled with exciting onshore excursions including a visit to Ngaut Ngaut Aboriginal Reserve - one of Australia’s most significant archaeological sites, experience a typical Australian woolshed show and Native Wildlife Shelter at Sunnydale and at Morgan and Waikerie explore their historic townships and museums. At Cobdogla visit the Cobdogla Irrigation & Steam Museum - home to the world’s only working Humphrey Pump and at Loxton learn about the early settlers and their families via displays in over 45 recreated buildings and exhibits at ‘The Village’, along the banks of the mighty Murray River.

  • RENMARK TROUGH AREA (INCLUDING the NADDA and BERRI BASINS) Links Tenements (PDF; Contains a Link to the DSD Website for the Latest Information)
    RENMARK TROUGH AREA (INCLUDING THE NADDA AND BERRI BASINS) Links Tenements (PDF; contains a link to the DSD website for the latest information) Summary Age Early Permian – Early Cretaceous. Area in South Australia 9500 km2 (3670 sq. miles). Depth to target zones 500 m (Cretaceous), 850 m (Permian). Thickness 1250 m. Hydrocarbon shows Minor methane show and fluorescence in Permian. First commercial discovery None. Identified reserves Nil. Undiscovered resources (50% prob.) not determined. Production Nil. Basin type Intracratonic. Depositional setting Paraglacial (Permian); non-marine and marine (Cretaceous). Reservoirs Non-marine and marginal marine sandstones. Regional structure Faulted anticlinal complexes. Seals Non-marine shale. Source rocks Marine and non-marine shales, coal. Depth to oil/gas window Unknown. Number of wells 15. Seismic line km 1878 2D. Structural setting The Early Permian Nadda Basin and Early Cretaceous Berri Basin both underlie the Tertiary Murray Basin. They collectively span 9440 km2 of eastern South Australia and are located east of the Adelaide Geosyncline (Fig. 1). The sediments are preserved in structurally controlled depressions, namely the Renmark Trough, Canegrass Lobe and the Paringa Embayment (Figs 1, 2) and are confined entirely to the subsurface. They unconformably overlie either Late Devonian sediments of the Darling Basin or Cambrian Kanmantoo Group, although recent DSD drilling has indicated significantly older ?Adelaidean basement. Exploration history Petroleum exploration commenced in the 1950s in the area to the south of the Nadda and Berri basins. It was not until 1961 that the Department of Mines commissioned an aeromagnetic survey over the western Murray Basin which revealed a deeper basin outline in the Renmark area.

Memoirs of Museum Victoria 62(1): 91–99. Two new spatangoid taxa are described from the Glenforslan Formation cropping out in the Murray River cliffs near Blanchetown, South Australia. One taxon, Murraypneustes biannulatus gen. et sp. nov., a large species of spatangoid with two ‘peripetalous’ fascioles (one circling the margin and the other close to the distal end of the relatively short petals), two distinct sizes of aboral primary tubercles, and a depressed apical system. The other spatangoid described, Spatagobrissus dermodyorum sp. nov. differs from the only other fossil species of this genus recorded from Australia, S. laubei (Duncan, 1877), in having a much shorter labrum, markedly larger peristome and periproct and larger primary tubercles within the peripetalous fasciole.

  • TRILITY FS Berri Barmera Reuse Scheme 2020 FINAL
    Berri Barmera Reuse Scheme Providing treatment and reuse schemes to satisfy the needs of communities and industry TRILITY Designed, Built, Financed and Operates (DBFO) the wastewater treatment and reuse scheme for the Berri-Barmera Council in South Australia’s Riverland. www.trility.com.au The SA Riverland region relies heavily on the over allocated River Murray and reuse water supply provides a much needed alternative water source to help ensure an environmentally sustainable future for the region. The new facilities were designed to transfer wastewater from local residential properties and trade effluent from a local large winery to the new Wastewater Treatment Plants (WWTPs). The plants utilise a combination of enhanced lagoon-based treatment with High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) lined facultative lagoons, pressure screen filtration and chlorination processes prior to the distribution of the Class B standard reuse water. Pumping stations and new pipelines enable the transfer of treated effluent to demand areas. The project provides a disposal path for industrial wastewater and the treated effluent is used to irrigate the local golf courses and parklands, reducing reliance on the River Murray. Who Where Snapshot Berri Barmera Council covers an area of Barmera, Berri and Glossop, approximately Client Berri Barmera Council approximately 508km2 and incorporates 220km north-east of Adelaide in South the townships of Berri, Barmera, Cobdogla, Australia’s Riverland region.
