Devonian Geology of Copper Mine Range, far west New South Wales
Abstract. The NW-trending Copper Mine Range, 40 km WSW of White Cliffs in far west New South Wales, is bounded in the west by the NW-trending Koonenberry Fault. Fluvial strata forming the range comprise eight ?Emsian-Eifelian (Devonian) units which together are ~3000 m thick. They unconformably overly Precambrian strata, except near Cupala Creek where they unconformably overlie Precambrian strata. South of the Copper Mine Range, and adjacent to the eastern margin of the Koonenberry Fault, are brecciated quartzose arenites, which are probably coeval with Unit 2 of Copper Mine Range. Unconformably above them are four units of lightly indurated, fluvial ?late Mid Devonian-Late Devonian strata that are altogether >1200 m thick. The basal conglomerate Unit A, >600 m thick, is fault bounded. Unit B, >700 m thick, lies south of Unit A and comprises fine sandstone, which contains a lenticular, 450 m thick sedimentary breccia (Unit C). Unit D is mapped in the north and is younger than Units A, B and C.

Trace Elements in Coal Science
D.J. Swaine
Abstract. Trace elements are relevant in several aspects of coal science. Five topics are dealt with in detail, namely, the occurrence of trace elements, boron as an influence of marine influence, boiler deposits, fluorine in coal, and the deposition of trace elements from the atmosphere. There is an increasing interest in the fate of trace elements from the combustion of coal for power production, especially environmental aspects of trace elements from the atmosphere and from ash disposal areas. Several suggestions for future work are outlined.
