Last updated:5 September 2023
The Galilee Basin region is located in southern and central Queensland. It ranges in depth from the modern ground surface to 2,800 m deep and has an area of approximately 249,000 km2 The Galilee Basin contains sedimentary rocks spanning the middle Carboniferous to the late Triassic periods and is overlain in parts by the geologically younger Eromanga, Lake Eyre and smaller Cenozoic basins.
Location of the Galilee basin region, including the extended region extent
The TEGI data and information repository contains a compilation of current geological, energy, carbon capture and storage, groundwater, minerals and environmental information for the Galilee Basin. GIS data is available to download for analysis where available. A short guide is provided with each GIS dataset to explain the nature and application of the data. Reports outline the methodology used for environmental assessments in the TEGI Program.
