CONTENTS

WELCOME TO AESC 2014On behalf of the Organising Committee, I would like to heartily welcome you to the city of Newcastle for the Australian Earth Sciences Convention 2014, the major biennial event of the Geological Society of Australia. No matter what stage of your career you are at, I’m sure that over the coming days you will learn a few things that you didn’t know before.

In developing the program, we have done our utmost to try and cover as many disciplines in the Earth Sciences as possible. We trust that your fi eld of interest is covered but also encourage you to attend presentations outside your area of interest as the AESC presents an opportunity for all of us to learn something outside of our normal fi eld of endeavour. Every presentation is of equal merit, be it a talk or a poster, so please try to attend both the oral and poster sessions. I’m sure that you will fi nd many presentations of interest.

For AESC2014, we have intentionally done our best to try and support as many young Earth Scientists to attend as possible. You are our next generation and we more senior Earth Scientists are delighted to welcome you here. We have also developed a number of public outreach events including the public forum on the future of energy in Australia, a public lecture series and an interactive geological exhibition. Informing and communicating our science to the public is something that we all should do.

We also wish to thank our sponsors and exhibitors for their support, particularly in this harsh economic climate.

To leave you with a short quote:

‘Geologists never grow old, they just weather away with the passing of time’

SATURDAY 5 JULYFIELD TRIP: Hunter Valley Coal: From the Exploration Site to the Coal ShipLeader: Sarah Jardine, Geological Survey of NSW

0800 – 1700Coach departs from and returns to City Hall Inclusions: All transport and meals

The Hunter Valley is the largest coal-producing region in NSW. It is rich in resources, hosting several large coal mines, an extensive transport network and one of the largest coal-exporting ports in the world.This field trip follows the journey of mined coal through the Hunter Valley. The day starts at an exploration drill rig where Permian black coal resources of the northern Sydney Basin are discovered and analysed to determine their mining potential. The trip continues to an open-cut coal mine operation, where mine design, mining techniques, coal processing and handling will be observed. Most coal is transported to a domestic or international market via a rail network. This network delivers the export product to large coal terminals at the port of Newcastle. The field trip continues on through the port’s coal terminals, where the trains are unloaded, coal is stockpiled and ships are loaded.The field trip is a must for those interested in the complex process of discovering, mining, transporting and exporting coal from the Hunter Valley.

SUNDAY 6 JULYFIELD TRIP: Geology of the Gloucester basinLeader: Sarah Jardine, Geological Survey of NSW

0800 – 1700Coach departs from and returns to City HallInclusions: All transport and meals

The fault-bounded Gloucester Basin contains coal-bearing Permian sedimentary and volcanic units resting unconformably on Carboniferous strata of the New England Orogen. The basin’s Permian sequence contains up to 50 coal seams which were deposited in an actively subsiding graben. The area hosts two operating coal mines, a developing petroleum industry and various agricultural enterprises.This one day field trip will provide an overview of the geology of the region. Companies face challenges in extracting coal from seams that outcrop along the eastern margin of the basin, where the strata are folded and dip steeply. Towards the centre of the basin, the seams are flatter but deeper and the petroleum industry is developing projects to extract gas associated with the coal seams. Farming in the area has a long, successful history as a result of the soil and water resources associated with the local geology. A coal mine, a coal seam gas field development and dairy farm will be visited allowing attendees to gain an understanding of how each industry operates and co-exists with others in the basin.

FIELD TRIP: Geology and Wines of the Lower Hunter ValleyLeader: Phil Gilmore, Geological Survey of NSW; John Greenfield, Geological Survey of NSWContributor: John Davis, Tallavera Grove Vineyard

0800 -1700Coach departs from and returns to City Hall Inclusions: All transport and meals, including a vineyard lunch. Does not include wine with lunch.


The vineyards of the Hunter Valley are famous for their Semillon and Shiraz. This field trip provides a chance to sample local wines at the cellar door and examine the geology of the Mount View and Pokolbin area in the local Hunter Valley. Geology stops will examine Late Carboniferous volcanism of the New England Orogen (Mount View inlier) and Early Permian sedimentary sequences (Sydney Basin).The role of underlying geology and soil formation in viticulture will be examined, particularly their importance in the development of suitable soil profiles for growing Hunter Valley Shiraz. Lunch will be provided in the vineyards, and of course there will be an opportunity to sample and purchase fantastic Hunter Valley wines.

WEDNESDAY 9 JULYFIELD TRIP: Geology, Surf & Scenery of Newcastle: A Sunrise Coastal Walk Leader: Phil Gilmore, Geological Survey of NSW; John Greenfield, Geological Survey of NSW

0600- 0830 0600 pick up and drop off at CBD hotels Inclusions: Coffee at Merewether Surf House

A 6km sunrise walk along the Bathers Way from Nobby’s to Merewether to enjoy the spectacular coastline, examine the local geology of the Late Permian Newcastle Coal Measures, discuss the European settlement and development of Newcastle and spot some whales! A good level of fitness is required for this tour.

FRIDAY 11 JULYFIELD TRIP: Geological History of the Lower Hunter ValleyLeader: Phil Gilmore, Geological Survey of NSW; John Greenfield, Geological Survey of NSW

0800-1700Coach departs from and returns to City HallInclusions: All transport and meals

This one-day trip provides an overview of the geology of the Newcastle area from Port Stephens to the north, the coalfields to the west, Lake Macquarie to the south and coastal sections along the Tasman Sea. The role of mapping by Edgeworth David and others leading to the rich mining culture in the region will also be discussed.

Four main aspects of the local geology will be examined at field stops:• Late Carboniferous sequences including volcanism of the New England Orogen in the Port Stephens area, and varved

shales related to glacial activity in the Seaham area• Fossiliferous shallow marine sedimentary rocks of the Early Permian Branxton Formation• Sedimentary sequences of the Late Permian Newcastle Coal Measures, including Glossopteris and other plant fossils;• Quaternary geology of the Hunter Valley, including formation of the barrier systems of Stockton Bight and the impacts

of past climate change in the area’s geomorphology.

WORKSHOP: Establishing and Defining Stratigraphic UnitsPresenter: Catherine Brown, Geoscience Australia

0930- 1200Hunter Room, City HallInclusions: Morning Tea and course notes

The Workshop aims to encourage more of Australia’s geologists to define and/or redefine stratigraphic units, through discussion of Australian examples and issues. We hope to: • Demystify the fundamental concepts such as what is lithostratigraphy? Why are definitions important? What is a type

section? What procedures apply in Australia? How do I pick a suitable name?• Provide advice on locating important resources such as the Australian Stratigraphic Units Database, the International

Stratigraphic Guide, the Australian Stratigraphy web pages and unit definition form, members of the Australian Stratigraphy Commission, and the current International Time Scale.


• Use Australian examples to show how the International Stratigraphic Guide has been interpreted in Australia. This will include discussion on ways of dealing with various lithologies, mixed lithologies, and particular issues with igneous units; what to do with ‘legacy units’ that don’t meet the current guidelines; why units are split up or grouped together; and any other stratigraphic issues participants wish to raise.

• Explain how data from your publications gets into the Australia Stratigraphic Units Database and offer ideas on streamlining your writing and refereeing processes to get high quality new unit definitions approved and published in a timely manner.

WORKSHOP: Coal Quality Assessment for Geological PurposesPresenter: Professor Colin Ward, University of NSW

WORKSHOP: The Global Multiple Sulphur Isotope Record: Insights into the Evolution of the Early Earth and Genesis of Mineral SystemsPresenter: Professor Marco Fiorentini, University of WA

0900-1700Newcastle Room, City HallInclusions: Morning Tea, Lunch & Afternoon tea & course notes

Sulfur (S) is a crucial element that is involved in numerous biological processes and is a critical ligand that complexes, transports and concentrates a wide range of metals in hydrothermal fluids and silicate melts. As a result, sulfides play a key role in the formation of numerous world-class mineral systems, including gold, nickel, copper and the platinum group elements.

However, even if the scientific community broadly agrees that sulfur most likely played a crucial role in the establishment of the first forms of proto-life, the relationship between the global sulfur cycle and the evolution of the biosphere-atmosphere-hydrosphere-lithosphere in the Early Earth is still a hot topic of debate. Furthermore, although the genetic association between sulfur and metal enrichment is well established, it is generally difficult to fingerprint and spatially localize the sulfur and metal sources that play a role in ore genesis.

This workshop aims at bringing together the sulfur isotope community to present the latest advances in our understanding of the multiple sulfur isotope signature record and jointly identify the greatest knowledge gaps that should be addressed in the short term future. In particular, the main topic of debate will be focused on the processes that lead to the genesis and preservation of mass independent sulfur isotope signatures in the global geological record. In fact, in the last two


decades, the discovery and measurement of non-mass dependent sulfur isotope signatures in sedimentary, igneous and metamorphic rocks has permitted the formulation of numerous new hypotheses on the evolution of the Early Earth. The analytical techniques, both for whole-rock and in-situ analysis of a wide range of S-bearing phases, including sulfides, sulfates and phosphates, have dramatically improved and it is now possible to measure precisely and accurately extremely faint isotopic signals. However, our capacity to generate data has overcome our ability to interpret them.

SATURDAY 12 JULYWORKSHOP: Remote Sensing and Field Spectroscopy for Geoscientists

Presenter: Dr Rob Hewson, Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology

0900-1700Newcastle Room,City HallInclusions: Morning Tea, Lunch & Afternoon tea

A one day workshop on the background of remote sensing and mineral spectroscopy relevant for geological and regolith investigations. Lecture-type presentations will be accompanied by hands-on practical sessions accessing remote sensing imagery, derived map products and mineral spectral signatures. Geological case studies, with a focus on mineral exploration, will be examined using ASTER multispectral satellite, airborne hyperspectral imagery and field spectrometer data sets. Issues covered include costings, sensor resolution, atmospheric interference, illumination conditions, vegetation cover and other quality control aspects. Examples of strategies to integrate such datasets with geophysical data (e.g. aeromagnetics, radiometrics), DEMs and public domain fractional cover estimates (e.g. vegetation cover %). A detailed examination of current (and future) airborne / satellite sensors and field spectrometers will be described. The resulting take home information will provide an overview of various operational remote sensing and field data sets, to enable the participant to assess its viability for specific geoscientific questions. The ultimate aim is to empower the participant with the knowledge to initially undertake or contract out spectral investigations as part of mineral exploration.Participants are required to bring their own laptops.

Panellists;Prof. Iain Stewart, Geoscience Communication at Plymouth University (UK)Dr Gary Ellem, The University of NewcastleProf. ben Hankamer, University of Queensland, Institute for Molecular Bioscience Dr Tony Irwin, Technical Director SMR Nuclear Technology Dr Alex Wonhas, CSIROMs Rachel Connell, Director, Office of Coal Seam Gas, NSW Trade & Investment.

The forum will take the format of the popular ABC TV programme, Q&A.You are invited to submit your questions to the panel by 5pm on Monday 7th July by handing them in to the registration desk, complete with your name and where you are from and a mobile phone number. You must be in the audience on the night to have the chance of asking your question, but there is no guarantee that your question will be asked.

An abundance of relatively cheap energy has been the critical support component of the quality lifestyle we enjoy in Australia – it powers the cars we drive, the appliances we use in our homes, and the industry we rely on for creature comforts and wealth creation. Most of this energy comes from fossil fuels; For example, coal accounts for over half of Australia's domestic energy production; 90% of NSW electricity comes from coal. But fossil fuel resources (oil, gas, coal) come at a cost to the local environment and probably to the global climate. Moreover, we live on a finite planet, so the shift from the industrial era to the sustainability era must come, if we are to maintain our lifestyles through the 21st century and beyond. Alternative renewable sources of energy are available, but many of these have their own limitations in terms of capacity, environmental effects, and high production costs. At present they represent less than 5% of our energy production. Moreover, the impacts of energy production, particularly coal mining, are strongly felt by local communities when mines encroach on urban areas and valuable agricultural land. Thus, the key themes are the future of energy resources in Australia, and the social impact of our transition to a secure renewable energy future. These are key national issues and will increasingly become global issues.

So, what does the future hold for Australia? What are the best resources/alternatives to secure a reliable energy future and what are their environmental effects? Are alternatives really viable and what are the implications of transitioning society into the 'sustainable era'?

'Energy 2050' will consist of a panel of speakers who have intimate knowledge of their respective industries, or have a vision of where we need to be in 2050.


WEDNESDAY 9 JULYConvention DinnerDress: Smart Casual. A warm coat is advisable for Fort Scratchley
