| Michelle_306 | Hosted in the Hardey Formation, Northwest Oakover Syncline. Southeast side of track from Bamboo Creek to Green Hole. It is of the Bamboo Creek Porphyry; Sheet within Hardey Sandstone; high level sill or lava. |
| Michelle_315 | Top of Koongaling Volcanics of Gregory Ranges Complex; overlain conformably by unnamed sediments. Sample from exposures in bed of small west-draining creek |
| Michelle_323 | Porphyry intrudes upper members of the Archaean greenstones of the Warrawoona Group |
| Michelle_510 | Deposit occurs in Archean serpentinized peridotite. It is the TL for three carbon minerals, paraotwayite, otwayite, and nullaginite, that occur as secondary mineralization in shear zones of the deposit. The veinlets cut all other minerals and appear to be late stage and low temperature in origin. |
| Michelle_512 | Deposit occurs in Archean serpentinized peridotite. The serpentinite has undergone extensive alteration by shearing and silicification. Otway deposit is the TL for three carbon minerals, paraotwayite, otwayite, and nullaginite, that occur as secondary mineralization in shear zones of the deposit. The veinlets cut all other minerals and appear to be late stage and low temperature in origin. |
