- Upcoming Excursion and Lecture -

Excursion
Copper and diprotodons of Burra
Friday 21st to Sunday 23rd June

This is an advanced notice of an excursion to the Mid-north area on Friday 21st to Sunday, 23rd June. We realise some people might be working on the Friday, so there is the option of joining the excursion on the Saturday at Burra.
The plan is to travel to Burra via Pt Wakefield, Balaklava and Clare, looking at areas of geological interest along the way. Saturday will be visiting at locations around the Burra region. Sunday will focus on the mining history of the town.

Lecture
33rd Brian Daily Memorial Lecture

"Top shelf sedimentary structures” by Dr Nick Lemon

Thursday 6th June 2024     Time: 7:00 pm.

Identifying sedimentary structures is one of the best ways to determine the depositional environment for sedimentary rocks. It is a particularly useful approach for Proterozoic sediments. This presentation focuses on shallow marine structures. It is illustrated with outcrop examples from the Flinders Ranges and modern analogues.
The lecture will be preceded by a presentation by the 2024 Brian Daily prizewinners.
