Brief description

Geoscience Australia (GA) recorded a regional seismic survey across the eastern Yilgarn Craton in 1991 in order to map the major structures in the region at depth. The three lines of the L132 seismic survey, BMR91-EGF1 to EFF3, total a length of 258 km. The main traverse, BMR91-EGF1, was 213 km long and oriented approximately east-west. The greenstone belts of the Archaean Yilgarn Craton in Western Australia, and particularly those near Kalgoorlie, are host to world class gold and nickel deposits. Therefore, knowledge of the geological structure at depth plays an important role in developing exploration models for this region.
