Did a supervolcano erupt and form Port Phillip Bay?

Embark on a geological journey as we explore the fascinating story of the Melbourne Zone in Victoria, Australia. Delve into a rich narrative spanning over four hundred million years, from the fragmentation of the supercontinent Gondwana, and the formation of the distinctive Port Phillip Sunklands, to the intriguing evidence of volcanic activity.

Discover how tectonic events far across the Tasman Sea in New Zealand may be intricately linked to Victoria's geological history. Uncover the potential for re-mineralization and hidden gold-rich rivers, as we delve into the powerful effects of rifting and earthquakes on mineral deposits. The Earth's history is written in the stones beneath our feet - join us as we decode these stories of transformation and hidden treasures.
