The NDI Carrara 1 Sedimentology and Sequence Stratigraphy program has been undertaken by CSIRO (Perth) under contract to Geoscience Australia as part of the Exploring for the Future program to examine the sedimentology, sequence stratigraphy and paleogeography of the Carrara Sub-basin based on recovered core from NDI Carrara 1. NDI Carrara 1 is the first drill hole to intersect the Proterozoic rocks of the Carrara Sub-Basin, a large depocentre discovered during seismic acquisition conducted during the first phase of the EFTF program in 2017. NDI Carrara 1 is located on the western flanks of the Carrara Sub-basin, reaching a total depth of 1751 m, intersecting ca. 630 m of Cambrian Georgina Basin overlying ca. 1100 m of Proterozoic carbonates, black shales and siliciclastics. The contract will be reported on through three milestone deliverables or 'Packages'. Interim reports on each package will be released and made public following review and approval, however, retroactive revision of released interim milestone reports may be conducted as further information, data analysis and interpretation is completed. This Package 1 milestone interim report (and accompanying Appendix) is a contracted milestone deliverable, on the sedimentology of the Proterozoic section of the National Drilling Initiative (NDI) drill hole Carrara 1 with an accompanying Appendix (Core log, from HyLogger data). Subsequent Package 2 and 3 reports will be publicly released as they are made available and reviewed. |
