Adelaide University AAPG Student Chapter

TODAY | Book and bake sale 📚🍪

12 – 5 PM, room 2.10 Santos Petroleum Engineering Building

One week ago the University of Adelaide AAPG Student Chapter Field Trip to Kangaroo Island was well under way. Led by Prof. Peter Moore of Curtin University, we were shown the enigmatic story of a shallow marine Cambrian basin and spent plenty of time hunting for the famous trilobite fossils of the Emu Bay Shale in the sunshine. A fantastic time by all accounts - big thank you to everyone involved.

After a crazy weekend of baking, our sale is now on! Come see us at the Student Kitchen in the Hub. :) It's just a gold coin donation, fundraising will go towards our Kangaroo Island field trip at the end of the year.

The joint SPE & AAPG field trip of 2016 is away! Tomorrow will feature a visit to the Viva Energy Geelong Refinery and Mount Elephant.

Best of luck to The University of Adelaide's AAPG Imperial Barrel Award team of 2016, who are in the process of finalizing their basin evaluation and will be presenting to the Asia Pacific Region judges mid April!

In November 2014, University of Adelaide AAPG student chapter and Bob Dalgarno led 22 partticipants on a 3-day excursion to examine the geology of the Otway Basin and limestone coast of Victoria and South Australia. Highlights included Cretaceous sands, tertiary volcanoes, modern karst features, and Pleistocene dunes. A good time was had by all. Stay tuned for details on our 2015 trip!
