Non-prospective sedimentary

Data quality and availability vary
among regions
Prospective areas in sedimentary basins where suitable saline formations, oil or gas fields, or coal beds may be found. Locations for storage in
coal beds are only partly included. Prospectivity is a qualitative assessment of the likelihood that a suitable storage location is present in a given
area based on the available information. This figure should be taken as a guide only, because it is based on partial data, the quality of which may
vary from region to region, and which may change over time and with new information (Courtesy of Geoscience Australia).
