Description: The Structural Framework of Queensland. The geological framework of Queensland is classified by structural or tectonic unit (provinces and basins) in which the rocks formed. These are referred to as basins (or in some cases troughs and depressions) where the original form and structure are still apparent. Provinces (and subprovinces) are generally older basins that have been strongly tectonised and/or metamorphosed so that the original basin extent and form are no longer preserved. Note that intrusive and some related volcanic rocks that overlap these provinces and basins have not been included in this classification. The map has been compiled using boundaries modified and generalised from the 1:2 000 000 Queensland Geology map (2012). Subsurface basins are also shown and these are based on data and published interpretations from petroleum exploration and geophysical surveys (seismic, gravity and magnetics). In April 2026 a boundary was added for the Taroom Trough, interpreted as the principal depocentre of the Bowen Basin. The outline shown uses the −3000 m depth to basement contour (Geognostics OZSEEBASE, 2021), as a visual guide to the basin’s deeper structural domain; this contour is provided for reference only and does not represent a formally defined boundary. South Nicholson Basin - Extent revised July 2026 by NRMMRRD staff, using a combination of the Australian Geological Provinces dataset, 2018.01 edition, Geoscience Australia (GA) and Detailed Surface and Solid geology - Queensland, published 2026-07-14. Capentaria Basin compiled using boundaries modified and generalised from the 1:2 000 000 Queensland Geology map (2012). Minor revision was carried out by NRMMRRD staff in July 2026 using Detailed Surface and Solid geology - Queensland, published 2026-07-14 to match updated South Nicholson Basin outcrop. Georgina Basin compiled using boundaries modified and generalised from the 1:2 000 000 Queensland Geology map (2012). Subsurface extent is based on data and published interpretations from petroleum exploration and geophysical surveys (seismic, gravity, and magnetics). A partial revision was carried out by NRMMRRD staff in July 2026 using Detailed Surface and Solid geology - Queensland, published 2026-07-14. Western Subprovince compiled using boundaries modified and generalised from the 1:2 000 000 Queensland Geology map (2012). A partial revision was carried out by NRMMRRD staff in July 2026 using Detailed Surface and Solid geology - Queensland, published 2026-07-14.
