	WESTERN AUSTRALIA - LoveToKnow Article on WESTERN AUSTRALIA (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
		Western Australia differs from the country to the east in having no extensive ranges to collect vapour, while the trade winds blow off the dry land instead of from the ocean; for these two reasons the climate is very dry.
		Western Australia is the most sparsely populated of all the states; only the coastal fringe and the gold-fields show any evidences of settlement, and if the area were divided amongst the population there would be but ten persons to 52 sq.
		Western Australia has very extensive forests of timber, and it has been estimated that the forest surfaces cover more than 20 million acres, of which 8 million acres are jarrah; 1,200,000 acres, karri; 200,000 acres, tuart; 7 million acres, wandoo; and 4 million acres, York gum, yate, sandalwood and jam.

		Nowhere in Australia (with the possible exception of Wilsons Promontory National Park in Victoria) are there beaches to match the special magic of those which, buffeted by the winds of the Southern Ocean, stretch from Esperance along the coast to Augusta.
		In Western Australia, because of the low rainfall in the wheatbelt, towns are often located near large granite outcrops, which the early settlers "dammed" in some way to collect rainwater from the infrequent storms.
		Kanowna, once a thriving township of 3000, is now just scrub on the edge of the desert with placards to indicate where once the battery, state school, hotels, railway siding and bank stood.

	The Ultimate Kanowna - American History Information Guide and Reference
		Kanowna is a ghost town in the Goldfields region of Western Australia.
		It is located at 30°37'S 121°36'E, about 20km east of Kalgoorlie, Western Australia.
		Increasing gold prices in the late 1970s sparked renewed interest in exploring the geology of the area for new sources of gold, and the discovery of a large amount of gold, previously undiscovered because the vein did not reach the surface, made gold mining in the region economically viable again.

	OzGold '97 - Australian Gold Deposits - Deposit Descriptions, Archaean
		The deposit is developed within and over rocks of the Archaean Saddleback greenstone belt in the Western Gneiss Terrane of the Yilgarn Craton, and falls within the Darling Ranges bauxite province to the east of Perth where the same profile is mined on a large scale for bauxite.
		Individual lodes occupy 20 to 50% of a lode channel and may be 30 to 1800 m long, 0.1 to 10 m thick and extend 30 to 1160 metres down dip.
		The alteration and mineralisation is predominantly associated with the latter.

	Regional seismic reflection profiling, Kalgoorlie goldfield, Western Australia
		Seismic reflection profiling recorded in the Kalgoorlie region of Western Australia has imaged the structure of the Archaean supracrustal greenstones, the detachment between these supracrustal greenstones and the underlying strongly reflective felsic crust and the geometric relationships of the various mapped fault systems.
		The east side of the Scotia Kanowna Dome is imaged as a series of west-directed greenstone thrust slices which sole into the basal detachment, while the western side consists of similar greenstone slices but thrusted towards the east, and lying structurally below the west-directed thrust wedges.
		The Scotia Kanowna Dome is therefore a number of thrust duplexes, thrust from both the east and west, rather than a broad folding of coherent stratigraphy across the whole of the dome.

		It covers highly prospective ground adjacent to the Kanowna Shear Zone which has been subjected to intensive exploration since the discovery of the Kanowna Belle gold mine in late 1989.
		A large area of anomalous gold geochemistry and alteration associated with splay structures off the regional Kanowna Shear Zone has been outlined, suggesting close proximity to a significant gold mineralised system.

		Centred about 50 km east of Hamelin Pool in Shark Bay, Western Australia, the impact structure is best shown by gravity, seismic, and magnetic data because it is buried beneath up to 600 m of Jurassic—Tertiary strata.
		In this Report, regional seismic data, mostly of 1960s to 1980s vintage, was tied to onshore wells and the three offshore wells at the extremities of the study area, and were interpreted alongside gravity and magnetic data to evaluate the structure, stratigraphy, and petroleum potential of the area.
		Summary: The west Kimberley area in the north of Western Australia is an important producer of zinc, lead, iron ore, and diamonds and is prospective for gold, bauxite, coal, copper, tungsten, tin, beryl, mica, corundum, uranium, and clays.
