All index properties data are shown in Table T15. Gamma-ray attenuation (GRAPE) density measured on unsplit cores are found to agree well with the bulk sediment density determined from ... No GRAPE densities were obtained from the dolerite flows of lithostratigraphic Unit XI because of extensive core fracturing.

Interaction of climate, vegetation and duration of weathering in the various substrates has led to a diverse array of dolerite-derived soils. The properties of the soils are broadly linked to the major Tasmanian vegetation types that range from dry eucalypt woodland to rainforest and sedgeland-heathland.

Takes exception to the hypothesis that differentiation in thick dolerite sills takes place by a stoping mechanism involving the settling of relatively large blocks of crystal mush, as proposed in a recent paper by Jaeger and Joplin, rather than by gravitational settling of individual crystals.

This investigation of naturally occurring fractures in the mafic rocks of the Palisades dolerite sill characterizes the porosity of this crystalline rock sequence, and yields a method of determining the in situ porosity when complete down-hole information is not available.

Several properties depend on water supplies from the forested area on the mountain. A major intake point is within the coupe area along Dublin Town Road. An older intake point is nearby. ... This was stressed by Leaman (2002) in a review of dolerite properties where it was suggested that much wider zones were required.
