The NDI Carrara 1 sedimentology, microstructural analysis and sequence stratigraphy program was a joint undertaking between Geoscience Australia (GA) and CSIRO (Perth) as part of the Exploring for the Future program to examine the sedimentology, sequence stratigraphy and paleogeography of the Carrara Sub-basin. The program was based on recovered core from the National Drilling Initiative (NDI) deep stratigraphic drill hole, NDI Carrara 1. NDI Carrara 1 is the first drill hole to intersect the Proterozoic rocks of the Carrara Sub-Basin, a large depocentre discovered during seismic acquisition conducted during the first phase of the EFTF program in 2017. NDI Carrara 1 is located on the western flanks of the Carrara Sub-basin, reaching a total depth of 1751 m, intersecting ca. 630 m of Cambrian Georgina Basin overlying ca. 1100 m of Proterozoic carbonates, black shales and siliciclastics. This final report, and associated appendices, compiles the findings of three milestone deliverables. The first component of the report addresses the sedimentology of the Proterozoic section of NDI Carrara 1 with an accompanying Appendix (core log, from HyLogger data). The second component is a detailed microstructural analysis based on selected thin sections in intervals of interest. The final component completed a 1D sequence stratigraphic assessment, enabling regional stratigraphic correlations to be established and an interpretive paleogeographic map generated for the Proterozoic sequences of interest across the region .
