Australian Geological Survey Journal Volume 16 Issue 5

AGSO Journal volume 16, issue 5 contains seven scientific articles published by the Australian Geological Survey Organisation. The articles cover geochemical analyses, zircon U-Pb dating, fossil wood identification, and biostratigraphic studies. This collection was aggregated by the Australian Ocean Data Network and last updated in April 2026.

Use Cases

• Analyze geochemical data from mafic dyke swarms in the western Musgrave Block to understand their origin and relationship to the Giles Complex.
• Use zircon U-Pb ages and geochemistry from igneous and metamorphic rocks in the northern Prince Charles Mountains for geochronological modeling.
• Study fossil woods from the Upper Permian Bainmedart Coal Measures for paleobotanical and paleoenvironmental reconstruction.
• Apply biostratigraphy data from Rig Seismic samples near Christmas Island for regional stratigraphic correlation in the northeastern Indian Ocean.
• Examine lithostratigraphy and depositional environments described for the non-marine Eumeralla Formation in the Otway Basin.

Strengths

• Contains seven peer-reviewed scientific articles.
• Covers multiple geological disciplines including geochemistry, geochronology, and paleontology.

Limitations

• Data is presented in PDF/HTML article format, not as structured datasets.
• Specific sample sizes, row counts, and columnar data are not provided.
