Could you look at the circular Anomaly near Coffs Hbr . Bordered by " the lack" of gold . As per the Gold au google earth project. Different geology in a big circle . You can see it's shape on normal google earth.
Fascinating subject. Thanks for your efforts. When I was at Sydney Uni in the early 90's, we went on a geology field trip down the coast to look at each stratigraphic layer of the Sydney Basin (Sydney to around Kiama). There was one location down South where the lecturer got the bus to pull over at some random point where we went for a quick 5 minute wandrr into the bush. He showed us an area that was over 80m above sea level where the soil horizon had a mixture of organic rich silt topsoil (similar in appearance to Botany humus) interspersed with gravel, shells, diatoms, etc. He said that he believed it to be possibly tsunamigenic, but that more research needed to be done to confirm the hypothesis. I wish I could recall the exact location, as I'd love to return to the site for a closer look.
I go up to Stockton 3 or 4 times a year for a week or 2 of 4wding and fishing, I'm going to look out for what was described in this video next time I go up.
The thought of a mega tsunami is terrifying but is very much real. I have had dreams of being on the coast and a massive. Wave smashing the land and sweeping me into the water. It feels so real I dunno if it's a past life memory or what but I've always been terrified of the ocean and have a very healthy respect for it.
Simular like you in 1997 i had dream where i am standing on the north side of Sydney(Cremorne& Mosman area ) & looking at Opera house only small part of highest roof peach was standing outside of water...everywhere are huge fish jumping outside of water and everything are bit dark ...Even today i have shivers thinking about this...I said to my family and friends about dream but we are still here right on the coast.
I used to work for a lawn mowing company and some of my sites was in Dungog and if the land scape could talk, it would be interesting. Rock deposits high on hill sides, gullies and the view from the Barrington tops area needs to be visited. There could be evidence this title wave you are talking about in this episode might have gone as far as Vacey, in the upper Hunter which is roughly 65 miles inland? I live in Newcastle NSW and you missed lake Macquarie, Belmont to Swansea is one sandbank. Thank you for your time and effort.
This is making a lot of sense to me now, I'm from Newy too and the few times I've ventured up high in the gog I always thought it was very unique geography for this reason. Edit: and as someone who has once gotten stuck in the middle of Swansea channel when the tide went out, I concurr with your Sandbank comment
Great work, most enjoyable and scary at the same time. I have done quite a bit of research on Botany Bay, Cronulla, Kurnell and the Georges River. During the last ice age, the Georges River emptied into the Tasman Sea around 7 to 10km further out to present and exited via Wanda. Kurnell was an island after the seas rose again and the Georges was either silted up or was blocked by a Tsunami delivering sand to form the Cronulla Sandhills. The Bay, formerly a basin of creeks and grassland, was filled and the Cooks River emptied into it rather than via the heads. I wonder if you have had a look at this possibility, a Tsunami forming the land bridge to Kurnell? I grew up in Sand Souci and when I was a kid in the 60s, Dad dug a bore for water and pulled up shells from 5m down, we often talked about how this could be. Keep em coming, great work. Thank you.
@@Kristenoyinbo 17 feet to be exact, and 1/2 a km from the current shore. Mainly Cockels. Dad hit a layer of them, so obviously a river or Bay bed at some time, but only 10,000 years ago, the Bay was dry and had been for thousands of years during the last Ice Age. So how did they get there? Poor old dad went to his grave wondering.
@@Kristenoyinbo South of Russell Ave, East of Napoleon St, West of Clareville Ave, North of Ida St. 15 Dickin Ave. The Sans Souci Peninsular is all rock on the Western side, hence Rocky Point Rd. As you head east, you drop down to the swamp and creeks. Look up "The geological history of Botany Bay and Pt Jackson during the ice age". It's very interesting if you know the place.
really interesting, and living in Newcastle a little bit terrifying! 22,000 years ago, and 20ish thousand-year period! OK. Another great video, thankyou. The amount of effort you put into this is obvious. great work.
go back and have a look at one mile beach at Forster. In the direct S/E you can see a very obvious path of a wave retreat. Also, the high ground beyond the headlands about 250 meters or more inland and around 100 high you will find the large boulders discussed in your first episode. On the north end is huge sand dune deposited from a southeast direction. It's noted in Cooks Diaries as he sailed north from Botany Bay.
Yes - Forster gal here too. I used to point this out as a guide when we were further out to sea especially about Cook and it’s visibility. Must admit I didn’t think so much about Tsunami but wind. Fascinating 👍
Another really well explained video - Thanks. I'm interested in the possible deposits of North of Sydney to Newcastle - mainly around Tuggerah to Swansea area if possible. Many Thanks again.
The buckle crater event where you documented damage in Victoria and Tasmania I found fascinating as an ocean lover due to waves following the great circle paths. There could be the possibility that this event had a refracted wave that hit some places in NSW as well, especially those places that are open to the South.
I worked in a sand Quarry towards the Northern end of Stockton Beach a few years ago. I've dug thousands of Tonnes of sand from the western (inland) side of the dunes. The sand is blown in with the easterly and southerly winds. The sand particles at the southern end of the beach are coarser and larger than the sand at the northern end, these are worn down as they are blown along the beach and over the dunes. The deeper/further we dug into the dunes would reveal darker and dirtier sand which was beginning to form sandstone coming out in chunks rather than granules. there is plenty of foreign material throughout the 2km section of Dunes we had access to. Also had a pit 2km further south that we dug from, this also contained many foreign objects, from broken trees, gravels of various descriptions, pumice pebbles, thin dark organic layers, presumably from grasses or small shrubs. found some old shoes from maybe the late 70's aswell in some of the darker sand maybe 10m into one dune. The family owned property has been going since the 60's there mining the sand. the dunes have been growing west/northwest for a long time, replenishing their dunes every year with more sand blown in. Evidence for a tsunami would be deep and perhaps best found halfway along their width at the northern 1/3rd of its length, due their west/ north west growth naturally over time.
Apparently captain cook documented that there was trees along the coast uprooted and knocked down facing inland when they first arrived... Can you look into this information and see if its creditable? My geography teacher said this to me when i told him that i had a fascination with tsunamis.
This and your last video were very interesting. I live about half way between the locations you've focused on in these two videos. Thinking it could be worth looking at the Northern Beaches in Sydney (from Manly, to Palm beach and the Central Coast) Looking at it in a similar lens, all of the beaches have either dunes or water outlets only at their Northern ends. Plus, the shallow waters near Ocean beach (Umina) could be a result of deposited sands. Slightly further north at Bouddi National Park there are similar scars in the cliffs to what you've shown here.
Just to be clear this is a theory. Just a note he keeps saying could and possible. Also that it has not been tested yet in certain areas. Also the studies he mentions are all basically from the same 2 guys. Just to be clear he could be right and your teachers were miss informed too but pushing up is the going theory and we teach the current theory with the most evidence.
I agree with @shozza100 This is speculation and a theory based on OzGeo's clear focus. In full context and considering the coal formation of The Hunter Region, it's a combination of many factors. Without an origin for this tsunami, I'm less than convinced. BUT, I also don't believe the earth to be millions of years old, so yeah. lol
@@OzGeologyOfficial a old friend of mine is a Geologist, she explained that the east coast of Oz has been hit with numerous Tsunami’s… the rock formations in the headlands bend inwards they should bend outwards…
Thanks! I'm using an app for the geological maps called Australian Geology Travel Maps and for the cross sections that measure the height of places I'm using an online website called Macrostrat. Enjoy :)
I think you should investigate the coastline around cape Howe (NSW/Vic border), Gabo Island, the Mallacoota area and further south along the coast. Numerous expansive elevated dune deposits and other tsunami evidence that probably relate to these same events.
I came here to see if anyone had commented about exactly this area. From Mallacoota up to Moruya and of course further north or south but this is exactly what I was going to comment. Araluen and areas inland, many sea shells have been found. Also , Sugarloaf mt in Moruya is an absolute anomaly. Gulaga is an ancient volcano but Sugarloaf mountain Moruya is a conical pyramid shaped mountain. Moreover the guilds places parliament house exactly 144kms from Montague island and when a straight line is drawn from the lighthouse on Montague/ barungaba to the glass pyramid on parliament house crosses straight over Sugarloaf, the big hole 72kms from the island and two giant granite boulders. 5 incredible sites covering a distance of 144kms in a perfectly straight line to parliament house. Not an ancient. Check my channel for proof of what I'm talking about.
The use of images which do not illustrate the point you're asserting is becoming frustrating. Use leaders, pointers, graphics etc., but, highlight the features within the images - especially, when even to a trained eye, they aren't easily identified.
@@iallreadyknowsunshine57 ... Really??? A bit of constructive criticism was given and you berate them for it. Grow up. Actually, your name says it all really.
Darawank is place of flathead fish in local gatang language . I’ve studied this area and there are two hysteric beaches easily seen via space imagery that I have . They are many kms from where the beach is today . And there are other beaches somewhere out in the ocean far from shore. These historic beaches are from when the oceans where much higher thousands of years ago and much lower. The temporary modern day beaches are 5 to 7 thousand year old along with the islands and lakes . I believe ocean hight may answer some of your questions . Nice videos 👍🇦🇺
Would love to learn more about Far North Queensland. As the rock formations out around Chillagoe are amazing the Lime stone is so jagged and sharp ❤❤❤❤
It's worth mentioning that the guys from Wollongong Uni first twigged to the idea of the tsunami affected coast when they started wondering about the huge boulders on the top of cliffs at Kiama. At 7.42 you may be able to widen the beach area affected from waves between the Broughton Islands due to diffraction?
I am very fascinated by tsunamis and their causes. I can spend entire days watching and rewatching the videos of the tsunamis that hit Japan on March 11th, 2011. The tsunamis that are large enough to be classified as megatsunamis move such enormous tides of water, and are so powerful that shadow effects from small islands just do not exist.
I'm located approx 50km inland from Newcastle. It's been long rumoured that the Western side of Kurri Kurri (called Weston) was once a beach area with shells and sand in large deposits. Located approx 40km inland. Also the Hunter River has big flood plains that stretch out to Maitland and even Singleton.
Loved this video and the last one. Won’t look at some of those beaches the same again 😅 Is there evidence of the tsunami(s) reaching New Zealand? I like the meteorite theory, but would also like to know how submarine shelf collapse and NZ volcanism has been ruled out.
I remember as a teen finding layers of sea shells in the dirt at the top of Minnamurra falls walk, scary to think it might have been from a tsunami...thats a long way up.
Thanks another interesting vid. Do you think the shear number of apparent tsunamis is just a statistical consequence of having such a lot of ocian around it? or do you think there are specific Biggar picture reasons for there being so many? I am thinking about things like: The Southern hemisphere facing the center of our milky way? One or more meteorite shower who's path we cross periodically? Earths magnetism directing particularly Ferus meteorites to land in the southern hemisphere? What has given me the idear is the resent paper(?) that linked the prevailing meteorite directional origin's with a particular proto planetary disc around a newly forming star.(sorry I tried to find my ref unsuccessfully it was an Anton Petrov video) . In short do you think there are parts of Earth get hit more often than others on average?
Do you believe the earth flips every 12000 years? Does any evidence support this? Thanks bro. Love all the local aus/vic info you have researched so well 👍
pretty sure it does flip every 12000 years with a minor flip every 6000. I have been studying this for a while now and been following "suspicious observers" youtube channel. I'm on the mid north coast of nsw and are looking for safe zones given the weakening magnetic field and the acceleration of the poles towards the future position around 90degs from present. The tsunamis that hit western australia show the history of the inertial waves caused by the flip whereas the tsunamis on the east coast show the backwash as the waters recede . The east coast swings to the north so the back wash hits at differing angles as the earth flips . This channel seems to indicate what I would expect to see evidence of, don't really want any more confirmation would rather be refuted.
That sounds intriguing! Geology has a way of revealing hidden stories about a place. Which area are you from specifically? I know you mentioned you lived in Victoria, but I’d love to explore the geological history there and maybe dive into its untold story! 🤔
Thank you for bringing this intriguing and mostly overlooked research to us. Every politician, who plans to construct nuclear power plants, should watch this!
The most terrifying thing about these videos by Oz is the utter ignorance by those who fund geological research projects. What’s the cost of a mega-tsunami hitting Sidney? What's the cost of doing nothing? What's the cost of a small research team (led by Oz) making core samples, taking new Lidar images over forested areas, on site evaluation etc? We as humans need to put more money into geological research. The absolute cheapest thing to do is to "Don't look up". The second cheapest thing is to learn from the past. Perhaps cosmic impact studies and cataclysmic events will be the next big thing in research funding once the global warming and CO2 craze has passed!
They don't want to scare the new migrants...still an immigration country. See the marketing brochures from the govt site. Can't possible mentions tsunamis
I appreciate your time and effort and what you put forward is interesting. What I have a problem with is the use of the term mega =tsunami when you are referring to these different facing chevrons. In my eyes, what I would call a mega tsunami would have washed up against the Great Dividing Range. Such a tsunami would have come from either a coastal shelf slip or a large meteor. The Indonesian tsunami was not a mega tsunami yet we saw what damage it did. around the Indian Ocean. I predict the next Mega tsunamis based on a coastal or mountain slip will be the Canary Islands or a coastal shelf slip off the west coast of Canada. The same could be said of a coastal slip on the eastern side of the Cooks Strait in NZ.
Around the Hunter Valley, you find large concentrations of fossils high up on mountain ridges. Around around 200 to 400 metres above sea level I seem to find massive areas of fossils. Some of the giant boulders at these elevations even look like petrified animals or entities of some form, but that's another story.
250 years before president is basically when the first fleet landed. If there was a tsunami then there would be stories from the many tribes in the area about it or there would have been notable damage that the english should have noticed. I will agree there are some dreamtime stories that do fit with a tsunami or flood but much older
FAscinating insights into our country. Can we get rid of the background music track,please? It was starting to get really annoying after 8 or 9 minutes. Those of us with less than perfect hearing find it makes speech hard to separate from the background noise.
Maybe you may know? I was told in Cairns the overlooking hills have rocks which do not belong there, rather they are or were identified as rock belonging to the reef and thus a tsunami was theorised as being the reason and apparently this event occured 1000s of yrs ago? Is this true?
I believe that there is metor impact crater in Floraville 2280 Newcastle I’ve always thought that from a very young age the size is approximately just over 200 meters in circumference about 30-40 meters deep on top of a hill inside the crater is like a tropical rain forest all around the top of the crater is river rock very bizarre from google maps you can see the circular outline with a different colour of plant life looks more impressive when you track up and have a good look if it is and i believe so I’m staking naming rights right now Turners crater hope you look into it
Stanage Bay Queensland is evidence of a massive tsunami. On the beach, massive deposit of small rounded rocks cemented together, now falling apart. Fitzroy Island has coral and shells deposit on top of the lookout over 100 m high. Cape Grenville has massive coral boulders high up on cliff top.

Loved this video and the last one. Won’t look at some of those beaches the same again 😅
Is there evidence of the tsunami(s) reaching New Zealand? I like the meteorite theory, but would also like to know how submarine shelf collapse and NZ volcanism has been ruled out.
I remember as a teen finding layers of sea shells in the dirt at the top of Minnamurra falls walk, scary to think it might have been from a tsunami...thats a long way up.
Thanks another interesting vid.
Do you think the shear number of apparent tsunamis is just a statistical consequence of having such a lot of ocian around it? or do you think there are specific Biggar picture reasons for there being so many?
I am thinking about things like:
The Southern hemisphere facing the center of our milky way?
One or more meteorite shower who's path we cross periodically?
Earths magnetism directing particularly Ferus meteorites to land in the southern hemisphere?
What has given me the idear is the resent paper(?) that linked the prevailing meteorite directional origin's with a particular proto planetary disc around a newly forming star.(sorry I tried to find my ref unsuccessfully it was an Anton Petrov video) .
In short do you think there are parts of Earth get hit more often than others on average?
Do you believe the earth flips every 12000 years? Does any evidence support this? Thanks bro. Love all the local aus/vic info you have researched so well 👍
The earth doesn't flip. The magnetic poles sometimes do, though. The last time was estimated to be about 40,000 years ago.
pretty sure it does flip every 12000 years with a minor flip every 6000. I have been studying this for a while now and been following "suspicious observers" youtube channel. I'm on the mid north coast of nsw and are looking for safe zones given the weakening magnetic field and the acceleration of the poles towards the future position around 90degs from present. The tsunamis that hit western australia show the history of the inertial waves caused by the flip whereas the tsunamis on the east coast show the backwash as the waters recede . The east coast swings to the north so the back wash hits at differing angles as the earth flips . This channel seems to indicate what I would expect to see evidence of, don't really want any more confirmation would rather be refuted.
Lets go surfin now, every body is learning how, comon and party with me!
Hi ozgeology could you look at the central Coast region because there are many headlands that could have signs of this tsunami
@OzGeology at what time period did these tsunamis happen ?
What’s before present?
Chevron island Gold Coast...🤔 Would like to have a beer with the original land developer there, deep pockets and a good sense of humour 🍻
Hope you do my area soon, always thought there was an untold story there 🤔 geologically speaking of course
That sounds intriguing! Geology has a way of revealing hidden stories about a place. Which area are you from specifically? I know you mentioned you lived in Victoria, but I’d love to explore the geological history there and maybe dive into its untold story! 🤔
I think your angling is slightly off in some of the diagrams, should be angled slightly more southeast
Thank you for bringing this intriguing and mostly overlooked research to us. Every politician, who plans to construct nuclear power plants, should watch this!
My pleasure! Thank you so much for watching :)
Hey, I live in the jervis Bay area, some of the best beaches
The most terrifying thing about these videos by Oz is the utter ignorance by those who fund geological research projects. What’s the cost of a mega-tsunami hitting Sidney? What's the cost of doing nothing? What's the cost of a small research team (led by Oz) making core samples, taking new Lidar images over forested areas, on site evaluation etc? We as humans need to put more money into geological research. The absolute cheapest thing to do is to "Don't look up". The second cheapest thing is to learn from the past. Perhaps cosmic impact studies and cataclysmic events will be the next big thing in research funding once the global warming and CO2 craze has passed!
They don't want to scare the new migrants...still an immigration country. See the marketing brochures from the govt site. Can't possible mentions tsunamis
Intresting. But. Volcanic sandstone?
Riveting. 👍
I'm so glad you enjoyed this! Thank you so much for watching!
Great work as usual man.
When you say 'before present' (BP/YBP) are you using 1950 as you zero marker or 2024. Or are you using BP mistakenly as BC/BCE.
Just curious, no harm.
I appreciate your time and effort and what you put forward is interesting. What I have a problem with is the use of the term mega =tsunami when you are referring to these different facing chevrons. In my eyes, what I would call a mega tsunami would have washed up against the Great Dividing Range. Such a tsunami would have come from either a coastal shelf slip or a large meteor. The Indonesian tsunami was not a mega tsunami yet we saw what damage it did. around the Indian Ocean. I predict the next Mega tsunamis based on a coastal or mountain slip will be the Canary Islands or a coastal shelf slip off the west coast of Canada. The same could be said of a coastal slip on the eastern side of the Cooks Strait in NZ.
Around the Hunter Valley, you find large concentrations of fossils high up on mountain ridges. Around around 200 to 400 metres above sea level I seem to find massive areas of fossils. Some of the giant boulders at these elevations even look like petrified animals or entities of some form, but that's another story.
I'm curious about the shape of broken Bay, and in particular the peninsula, woy woy ettalong umina. So flat, imagine one here.
Love your work. It would be good to chat on our show.
Alright, where did it come from? What was the point of origin?
250 years before president is basically when the first fleet landed. If there was a tsunami then there would be stories from the many tribes in the area about it or there would have been notable damage that the english should have noticed. I will agree there are some dreamtime stories that do fit with a tsunami or flood but much older
Taupo eruption 250CE ?
FAscinating insights into our country. Can we get rid of the background music track,please? It was starting to get really annoying after 8 or 9 minutes. Those of us with less than perfect hearing find it makes speech hard to separate from the background noise.

Its time to rewind...

Maybe you may know? I was told in Cairns the overlooking hills have rocks which do not belong there, rather they are or were identified as rock belonging to the reef and thus a tsunami was theorised as being the reason and apparently this event occured 1000s of yrs ago?
Is this true?
Ever looked at The Gulf of Carpenteria. Have heard stories, are they true?
I believe that there is metor impact crater in Floraville 2280 Newcastle I’ve always thought that from a very young age the size is approximately just over 200 meters in circumference about 30-40 meters deep on top of a hill inside the crater is like a tropical rain forest all around the top of the crater is river rock very bizarre from google maps you can see the circular outline with a different colour of plant life looks more impressive when you track up and have a good look if it is and i believe so I’m staking naming rights right now Turners crater hope you look into it
If u said the tsunami hit NSW or New Castle or Sydney I got something to tell y’all… WELP IM DOOMED
Very bad mic pops and thumps in this one.. Hard to listen to :(
I noticed that. I'll be addressing them in future videos. Thanks for your feedback :)
I think the indigenous would know.
Ohhh yeH , talk jargon to me baby
😂
😂 my bad. I'll try to explain the terms more in future videos.
It’s Seal Rocks, not Seals rock.
Thanks for clarifying that! I appreciate it.
the world has been remade many times
In other words you haven’t got a clue what happened but would like to make it appear you do )
Not sure what you mean, but thanks for watching and commenting!
Just get to the point 👉😉
Lets ignore Australia was an inland sea and go with your B.S.
😂😂
What do the indigenous mobs have to say? They’ve been here 60 thousand years
Sorry but as Australian, nothing did happen here.
Not even a tsunami.
It definitely did. As the study proves.
Stanage Bay Queensland is evidence of a massive tsunami. On the beach, massive deposit of small rounded rocks cemented together, now falling apart. Fitzroy Island has coral and shells deposit on top of the lookout over 100 m high. Cape Grenville has massive coral boulders high up on cliff top.
