- W4378069984 abstract "The greater McArthur Basin is an informal term for a Palaeo-to-Mesoproterozoic sedimentary system that consists of terranes from the McArthur Basin, Birrindudu Basin, and the Tomkinson Province. These spatially distant basins are interpreted to connect in the subsurface based on geophysical, lithological, and geochronological evidence. The coeval sedimentary units of the greater McArthur Basin were subdivided into non-genetic depositional ‘packages’ bookended by regional unconformities. In ascending order, these packages are the: Redbank, Goyder, Glyde, Favenc, and Wilton Packages. The ca. 1660–1610 Ma Glyde Package is the focus of this study and includes the economically important Barney Creek Formation, found in the McArthur Basin sensu stricto. The Barney Creek Formation hosts the world-class, sediment-hosted, Zn-Pb-Ag McArthur River deposit. Importantly, it is also a key petroleum source rock and unconventional hydrocarbon reservoir, containing Australia’s geologically oldest oil and gas discoveries and forming a part of the McArthur Petroleum Supersystem. Consequently, identifying chronostratigraphically similar units elsewhere in the greater McArthur Basin is important for explorers in finding analogous economic resources. In situ Rb–Sr geochronological results of the Barney Creek Formation shales sourced from borehole LV09001 yielded ages of 1634 ± 59 Ma and 1635 ± 67 Ma. Shale samples from Fraynes Formation in borehole Manbulloo S1 were dated at 1630 ± 57 Ma and 1636 ± 42 Ma using the same approach. These ages are in good agreement with U–Pb ages of tuffaceous layers from the same units, suggesting that they represent their early burial histories and not secondary, post-depositional events. These results indicate that the Fraynes Formation and the Barney Creek Formation are direct chronostratigraphic equivalents, with ages within analytical error of each other. In addition to the geochronological similarities, the δ13Ccarb, 87Sr/86Sr, and δ88/86Sr isotopic constraints from both units also display parallel geochemical fingerprints up-section. These include a positive δ13Ccarb excursion of ∼2.0 ‰, a trend towards more crustal-dominated 87Sr/86Sr ratios, and a negative δ88/86Sr excursion of ∼-0.25 ‰. These findings further support the application of isotopic chemostratigraphy as a powerful tool to correlate distal carbonaceous rocks in the basin system. Importantly, these geochemical fingerprints also show that the McArthur Group and the Limbunya Group experienced similar changes in palaeoenvironments during the evolution of the basin system. However, trace element data collated in this study indicates that they may have recorded different, heterogeneous palaeoredox histories. Geochemical models based on redox-sensitive trace elements V and Mo suggest that the Fraynes Formation sustained a much more euxinic water column as opposed to the Barney Creek Formation. These differences may have implications for the accumulation and preservation of base metals and hydrocarbons within the sediment." @default.
