The Surat Basin’s Middle Jurassic Walloon Subgroup is a productive coal seam gas source in Queensland, Australia. The Walloon Subgroup can be subdivided into the Upper and Lower Juandah coal measures, the Tangalooma Sandstone, the Taroom Coal Measures, and the Eurombah/Durabilla Formation, from top to bottom. Correlation across the basin is challenging due to high lateral variability and lack of extensive stratigraphic markers. The Walloon Subgroup is also, in places, incised by the overlying Springbok Sandstone, sometimes interpreted as far down as the Tangalooma Sandstone. New age dates suggest that the Walloon Coal Measures are Oxfordian in age and mark a period of high rates of Corg production and burial, and an intermittent decrease of atmospheric pCO2. The un- or dis-conformable base of the Springbok Sandstone coincides with a turning point of this supposedly global phenomenon. This study uses organic stable carbon isotope trends as a correlation tool within the Surat Basin’s Walloon Subgroup and its overlying Springbok Sandstone. Analysis of a stratigraphic suite of coal samples from several wells across the Surat Basin shows a gradual enrichment in 13C up section from the Taroom to the Lower Juandah Coal Measures, with the most positive δ13C values within the Upper Juandah Coal Measures. Thereafter there is a rapid reversal to more negative δ13C values for coal samples of the Springbok Sandstone. The upward enrichment occurs well before the shift in maceral composition to increased inertinite content in the coals, suggesting more global allogenic processes are controlling the carbon isotopic trend. The consistency of these trends lends a more confident correlation for sub-units within the Walloon Subgroup, and assists in determining the level of incision disconformity of the Springbok Sandstone.
