Publicly available geology data are compiled to provide a common information base for resource development and regulatory decisions in the north Bowen Basin region. This data guide gives examples of how the compiled data can be used. It supports a data package that presents core photographs, existing knowledge of the stratigraphy, and structural elements for the north Bowen Basin and the overlying Cenozoic basins. Stratigraphic frameworks capture the geological groups and formations that make up the sedimentary sequence in the north Bowen Basin region. The north Bowen Basin has 5 stratigraphic groups. From deepest to shallowest, these are the Lizzie Creek Group, Back Creek Group, Blackwater Group, Rewan Group and Clematis Group. Overlying the north Bowen Basin are the geological formations of Cenozoic basins. The north Bowen Basin has 5 play intervals, which are consolidated into one hydrostratigraphic interval. Overlying the north Bowen Basin are 1 Cenozoic play interval and 1 hydrostratigraphic interval. The geological groups and formations in the play intervals and hydrostratigraphic intervals are summarised in the stratigraphic charts included with this data package. Structural elements maps summarise where the sedimentary sequence has been deposited and later deformed by crustal movements. Structure information is used in assessing the geological potential for resources and interpreting groundwater flow and connectivity at the basin scale. The stratigraphic frameworks and structural elements provide the basic geological context for the north Bowen Basin region geological, resource and environmental assessments.
