...F ig . 11. Case 5 corresponding to the condition that the Termite Range fault extends to a depth of 30 km. (A) Temperature distribution and superimposed fluid velocity vectors after 1,400,000 years. A positive temperature anomaly and strong upward fluid flow is developed adjacent to the deepened...

... changes to the north of the Termite Range and Barramundi faults, which are interpreted as active structures during deposition.The Termite Range Formation is up to 1,300 m thick and comprises two fining upward sequences, T 1 and T 2 , both dominated by sandstone in the lower part and by shale in the upper...

.... Mineral paragenesis, stable isotope, and K-Ar dating studies demonstrate that long-lived structures such as the Termite Range fault acted as hot fluid conduits several times during the Paleoproterozoic and Mesoproterozoic in response to major tectonic events. Illite and chlorite crystallinity studies...

... passage of potential metal-bearing fluids rather than background conductive heat flow from the basement. Such hydrothermal fluids are responsible for inverse maturation profiles in the vicinity of the Termite Range fault and extreme maturation (reflectance values) up to 6 percent Ro at the Grevillea...
