Zusammenfassung:Mesozoic transformation of Western Australia spans 252 to 66 Ma, an era represented by sedimentary deposits that cover about 23% of the onshore part of the State and virtually all offshore basins, with the Upper Jurassic – Cretaceous extending beyond the continent onto oceanic crust. These sedimentary successions are up to 15 km thick in offshore depocentres and the Perth Basin, and contain only minor igneous rocks apart from areas near the continent–ocean boundary where intrusions are abundant.
