SEISMIC DATA PROBLEMS ON COASTAL LIMESTONE, W.A.

Abstract

The surface Coastal Limestone in the Perth basin extends from Cape Leeuwin in the South to Geraldton in the north forming a strip along the coast up to 15 miles wide. Over a great portion of this area the reflection seismic results are unreliable. Seismic studies on the limestone disclose some aspects of the problem and indicate ways to improve the quality of the data.
