| Geology of the Lagoon Creek Project |
|
|
The Westmoreland region lies within the Palaeoproterozoic Murphy Tectonic Ridge that separates the Mt Isa Inlier from the McArthur and South Nicholson Basins. Basement in the area comprises metasediments and quartzites of the Murphy Metamorphics which are unconformably overlain by two Proterozoic cover sequences, the Cliffdale Volcanics and the Tawallah Group.
