Australia: The Land Where Time Began

A biography of the Australian continent 

Situated on the eastern flank of the Great Dividing Range to the west of Townsville in Queensland, it covers an area of about 7,500 km². There are 46 known vents, the lava from most of which flowed to the northeast towards the Burdekin Valley. The Toomba vent produced a lava flow 120 km long about 13,000 years ago.
