Hidden Geology of Australia: Paroo-Darling Mound Springs, Tasman Abyssal Plain and the Woodleigh Impact Crater

Australia hides some of its most extraordinary geological wonders far from the tourist trail. From the rare artesian mound springs of the Paroo-Darling, to the vast Tasman Abyssal Plain beneath the sea, and the buried Woodleigh Impact Structure carved by a colossal meteor, these sites reveal the hidden forces that shaped the continent. They are the lesser-known but no less spectacular stories of water, tectonics and cosmic collisions that continue to define Australia’s deep past.
