The petrophysics database contains petrophysical (rock physical properties) data managed and acquired by the Geological Survey of NSW (GSNSW). Petrophysical properties recorded are: magnetic susceptibility (volume normalised); principal axes and degree of anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility; natural remanent magnetisation (NRM) intensity and direction; remanent magnetisation component directions; Koenigsberger (Q) ratio; saturated density; dry density; grain density; porosity. Vector and tensor magnetic properties (remanence and AMS) are oriented to in-situ (geographic) and fold-corrected (stratigraphic) coordinates where sample and bedding orientation are known.

This fossil database contains information on samples mainly collected by the Geological Survey of NSW unless otherwise noted, with many specimens housed at the Londonderry Core Facility. To ensure the preservation of of key outcrops, only localities for microfossils and trace fossils are shown. For information on the locality of macrofossils and/or where specimens can be inspected, please email geoinfo.admin@industry.nsw.gov.au.
