INtRODUCTION

In June 1970, the Bureau of Mineral. Resource8 (BMR) waa requested by the Department of the Interior (D.I.) to locate deposita ot plastic ad. non-plastic gravel* within a 4 km :rad1u8 of 'RiTerlea t homestead on Padd7s River Road. The area of 1Dvestigation was later extended to a. radius ot about 8 laB £:Nm 'Riverlea' homestead (Fig. 2), and. acoe8s was gained to Pierces Creek Forest and to Blocks 1, 10, 16, 24. 29, 33, 34, 35, 41, 47 and. 76, Paddya River Distriot.

Constraints imposed bi the Department of the Interior on the location of gravel pits were as tollovs:

pits should be less than 8 km from the roadwGrks th~should be accessible from existing roads they should not be located on freehold or resumed freehold land they should not be readily visible from eJ:i8ting roads

cp;0LOGY

General . The area was mapped by Snelling (1960), and is covered by the

Canberra 1:250,000 Geological Sheet, sm/55-16 (StruB8, 1971). The rocks are, in decreasing order of abundance, the Shannona Flat Granodiorite, sedimental7 rooks of prob~ble Ordovician age, Silurian Volcanics, !barva Adamellite and m1nor amounts of aplite, microg,t'anite, and propbyrlt1c leucog.ran1te.

hat"riA. ADd G'ay'~ The suitability of material tor u.e as plastiC gravel depends on

the chemistry of the parent rock, the development ot co.pletel1 weathered roCk, and the extent to which the weathered profile bas survived the present cycle of erosion. Completely weathered material derived trom a biotite-rich parent rock, such as the ShaDAons Flat Granodiorite or some of the volcanic rocks, invariably oontains a red.plastic clay. which renders it unsuitable for use as non-plastic gravel; however, areas of slopewash derived trom completely weathered volcanic or granitio rocks may provide suitable material because muoh of the olay would have been washed troll the material during transport. The weathered argillaceous sedtaentary rooks are ,aD.rally too claJey tor use as gravel.

9fIDQd~Qrite gnd td,,811it. The aoid igneous rocks of the A.C.!. provide both plastic and

non-plastic gravel and many thousands of cubic metres have been won in the past. Commonly ocourring:'ID1de8irab1e materials 1n such gravels are organic matter and f'lakey or platy minerals such as biotite. and to a lesser utent muscovite andchlor1te. Unfortunately, biotite.is present to varying amounts in lIlost parts of' the batholith and this generally readers in situ weathered material unsuitable as a souroe for gravel.

More than 150 hand auger holes (logs of'these are available at BMR) were drilled to check depth of' weathering, degrees of leaChing, and development of red clay. Favourable sites were chosen for ezamination with a power auger.

*

The most suite-ble ~terial for use as plastic gravel was found on

Minimum reserves of about 7000 au II are generally OODsidered to constitute a viable deposit. See Appendix 1 for def'initions of' terms 'Plastic' aDd '.on-Plastic Gravel'.

Block 41, 'Riverlea' station (Hole Bo. P.R. PRo,), where seismic investigations indioated that granite at this looality was highly weathered to a depth of at least 10 m. loather potential deposits of plastic or non-plastic gravel were found on granite.

S,d1mentary fpot, and yplp8Di gB -The sedimentary roob oonsist mostly of shale and impure quartzite.

Although a suitable gravel deposit could possibly form in reworked slopewash from tbese parent materials, DO suitable material vas found in the Paddys River area. The Paddys River Volcanics are of intermediate composition, giving rise to·olayey weathered profiles of shallow depths, generally about 0.5 to 1.5 m.

Cleek depositA Creek sections were examined to determine suitability of the

creek-bed sediments. The only occurrence which did Dot show an excess of organic matter or clay was at Pieroes Creek (Fig. 2). Sixteen power auger holes were d~lled (rig. ,), but the material is poorly graded: it has a low silt and olay oontent (Appendix 2). The deposit is unsuitable for plastiC or non-plastic gravel, but could probably be mixed with a more plastic material to obtain a gravel with a satisfactory range of Plasticity Indu. Reserves of about 5000 cu m were proved.

RESULTS AND CONCLUSIOBS

With the exceptions of the plastic gravel deposit found on Block 41, and the small reserves of material with poor grading characteristics at Pierces Creek, no other suitable plastiC or non-plastic gravel deposits were found.

RECOMllENPATIO,S

The area south of 'Riverlea' may be served by the Gibraltar Creek gravel pit (Vandenbroek & Hansen, 1m), and the search for Suitable material should be extended to the Uriarra area, which couldserv. the Paddys River Road north of 'Riverlea'. -

DEFINITI9NS OF GRAVEL. PLASTIC AND NOI-PLASTIC

'Gravel' is used in this report in an engineering rather than geological s~nse. It is defined as an unconsolidated, well-graded mixture of gravel-sized rock fragments and/or mineral graiDs 8~ch as quartz and feldspars,

Page 10: UEAU O MOEA ESOUCES, GEO OGY A GEOYSEICS · /q7S EAME O MIEAS A EEGY UEAU O MOEA ESOUCES, GEO_OGY A GEOYSEICS eco SEAC O GAE EOSIS O AYS IE OA, A.C.., 2 y.. ase ie iomaio coaie i

together with sand and silt, in a feebly plastic soil binder. It should be stressed that the terms gravel, sand, and silt refer only to particle size according to the Unified Soil Classification System, and not to their mode or origin. .

'Gravel' derives its strength from meohanical interlock owing to high internal friotion of its sub-angular components and s,ec1fioations have been designed bf the Commonwealth Department or Works (CDr) for quality control (see Appendix 2). These specifications are based on the assumption that the performance of 'gravel' is influenced by two characteristics, partiole size distribution and plasticity. !he latter is determined by an empirical test which indicates the affinity or the material tor water and thereby the potential volume change of the clay binder. Particle eiBe l1Dd.ts are flexible, but the. grading curve should be smooth.and parabolic.

'Plaatig' and 'ngn-plattig Ilayel' There are two types' or gravel required for rural roads. In anB1r&eeriDg

terminology they are known as 'plastic gravel' an4 'non-plaatic gravel'. '!he former is used for surfaoing unsealed roads and for· shouldera on sealed roads. It. plasticity iDdex (PI) should Dot exceed 8 and its m.axilnDa partiole si._ should not exceed ,.8 om in diueter. '.on-plastic gra"el' i8 uae4 aa a surface course underneath a aeal and its PI moat DOt exceed 6 and ite maxt.aa particle ei.e should not exceed ,.8 ca.' .

In general, the 'plastiC' variety should have a higher percen'tap of fine-grained material than the 'Don-plutic' type because vehicle traffic tenda to remove a considerable portion of the riner pained .. terial.
