Summary The research programme provided a preliminary guide for designers concerned with the required still water Under Keel Clearance (UKC) and still water Water Plug Height (WPH) of air-lifted Gravity…
Summary Integration of aeromagnetic data can be based on two fundamental variations in the data, in amplitude and texture, giving the rationale behind this project. These two characteristics were used…
Summary This three-year study of the hydrodynamics of the regional North West Shelf used open-file pressure, temperature and salinity data in determining and analysing fluid migration pathways, pressure compartments, fault…
Summary Because most North West Shelf crude oils are volatile, the internationally accepted toxicity test protocols do not necessarily serve for regulatory application there. This project addressed the deficiencies of…
Summary This project met all its objectives, which were to determine the incidence in former gold miners of radiographic silicosis, to relate this incidence according to the ILO Pneumoconiosis Classification…
Summary To test the hypothesis that original facies of Pilbara banded iron formations were carbonate-rich, new dedicated lithofacies and sequence-stratigraphic analysis of the Hamersley Province was undertaken in this project.…
Summary Techniques developed in an earlier AMIRA-supported program for investigating hydrodynamics in gibbsite precipitation were applied in this project, to understand mechanics of precipitation in laminar and turbulent flow regimes.…
Summary This study was based on the concept of molecular stratigraphy by which the distribution of compounds in sedimentary sequences is interpreted in terms of its geological and environmental factors.…
Summary In this AMIRA project (P479A) a rigorous comparative evaluation of all available methods for cyanide analysis has been carried out. Methods recommended were those that proved reasonably robust and…
Summary Previous observations suggested that Au was soluble in organic, carbonated soils under present-day conditions. Another project found that solutions in the pH range 5.5 to 9 retained above 500…
Summary This work was undertaken to ascertain from laboratory studies if hyper-saline tailings surfaces will develop into major dust sources if left uncapped, and to measure the dust yield potential…
Summary The report presents a revised regional palynological-zonal scheme for the Late Triassic, enhanced by studies of Northern Carnarvon Basin samples. Five major bioevents are recognised across the basin, offering…
