SEEBASE Study and GIS for greater McArthur Basin

Abstract

The SEEBASE Study and GIS provides maps of basement terranes, depth to basement (SEEBASE surface), base of Wilton package, depth to Moho, basement thickness and total sediment thickness in GIS format and is accompanied by a comprehensive report outlining methods and major findings for the greater McArthur Basin. The greater McArthur Basin is a Palaeo to Mesoproterozoic basin that contains key stratigraphic intervals prospective for both petroleum and mineral resources. Numerous studies since the late 1990s have recognised stratigraphic correlations between the McArthur Basin, Birrindudu Basin and Tomkinson province, the outcropping and undercover extent of these contiguous regional correlatives are informally referred to as the greater McArthur Basin.
