Geochronological synthesis and Time-Space plots for Proterozoic Australia

Summary

Determining the timing, duration and extent of geological events is a key component in the development of geodynamic models for a geological region. A useful way to depict this information is via time-space plots. This report presents time-space plots for each of the Proterozoic Inliers of Australia, together with explanatory notes describing the geological interpretation of the available data and highlighting major knowledge gaps.

This series of time-space plots was produced in the period September to December 2006, as a component of the Proterozoic Geodynamic and Metallogenic Synthesis Project within the Onshore Energy and Minerals Division, Geoscience Australia.
