%X Results of past surface and subsurface geological and geophysical surveys indicate that the Cooper&apos;s Creek area has been a sedimentary basin from Lower Palaeozoic time to at least the beginning of Cretaceous time.The Cooper&apos;s Creek Basin is bounded to the east by the Canaway Ridge, to the south by a basement ridge that runs from Naryilco to Kopperamanna, to the north by a folded trend that runs from Warbreccan to Kopperamanna.Sediments from Cambrian to Recent age have been encountered in wells drilled by Delhi-Santos. It is postulated that the present basin originated in post-Siluro-Devonian time after the Bowning orogeny.Physiographically the axis of the basin is reflected by the Cooper&apos;s Creek.
