    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    A deep-drilling exploration of an ancient basin has uncovered fossilised corals, trilobites and unseen rock combinations. Scientists will use samples to determine how ancient Devonian-era fish grew so big. The fossils will help scientists understand the seabed's history, but geologists did not find a salt layer they were looking for.

    Tradies swap swags for dongas on wheels to retain workers out bush (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    A remote outback community has turned to dongas on wheels to keep trades within the bush. The triple-trailer road train accommodation is entirely off-the-grid, meaning it can be set up anywhere in Queensland. The Barcoo Shire hopes the accommodation will retain skilled road workers.
