Exploring for the Future (EFTF) is an Australian Government program led by Geoscience Australia, in partnership with state and Northern Territory governments. This first phase of the EFTF program (2016–2020) aimed to assist industry investment in resource exploration in frontier regions of northern Australia by providing precompetitive data and information about energy, mineral and groundwater resource potential. As part of this initiative, this record presents whole-rock inorganic geochemistry data including X-ray fluorescence (XRF) and laser ablation-inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) analyses and quantitative X-ray diffraction (qXRD) results for 67 drill core and cuttings samples of sedimentary rocks from Barnicarndy 1 drilled in the Barnicarndy Graben of the Canning Basin. The inorganic geochemistry analyses were undertaken by Geoscience Australia and Bureau Veritas (BV). This work complements other components of the EFTF program, including a comprehensive sampling program of the Barnicarndy 1 deep stratigraphic well, the Kidson Sub-basin seismic survey, and the Kidson Sub-basin petroleum systems model to better understand the geological evolution, basin architecture and petroleum prospectivity of the region.
