This projects aims to develop a 4D tectonic geography framework to support the effective exploration of the McArthur Basin. This project will construct this by a) investigating the evolving tectonic setting, b) examining intra-basin correlations and trace the source to sink sediment provenance, c) unraveling the depositional geography using novel isotopic proxies, and, d) constructing the subsequent thermal history of the basin. The techniques developed through this project will de-risk the exploration for petroleum in this basin, and be applicable in opening up Proterozoic petroleum elsewhere in Australia and internationally.

该项目旨在开发一个4D构造地理框架，以支持麦克阿瑟盆地的有效勘探。 该项目将通过以下方式构建该模型：a）调查不断演变的构造背景，B）检查盆地内的相关性并追踪沉积物的来源，c）使用新的同位素替代物揭示沉积地理，以及d）构建盆地随后的热历史。通过该项目开发的技术将降低该盆地石油勘探的风险，并适用于澳大利亚和国际其他地区的元古宙石油勘探。
