fields seems to preclude a deep source with significant migration across strati-
graphic boundaries. Threlfall et al. (1976, p. 54) noted that the gas province
is where the reservoir rocks of the Latrobe Formation are of Eocene age, while
the oil province is where they are of Paleocene and late Cretaceous age.
