Western Australia
Es gibt keinen aktiven Vulkan in Western Australia, allerdings einige erloschene und den geologischen Nachweis von weiteren. Neunzehn erloschene Vulkane gibt es im Tal des Fitzroy River in der Region von Kimberley, wie auch heiße Quellen, die möglicherweise mit der Aktivität erloschener Vulkane verbunden sind. Es gibt auch Vorkommen von Basalt bei Bunbury und Cape Gosselin.

The Crater - Hypipamee National Park, Atherton Tableland, Queensland, Australia This is the surface crater of a volcanic pipe or diatreme about 100m across. Its sheer walls have a water pool at the bottom. The pipe turns at a depth of some 80m underwater and tracks towards other volcanic formations in the region.

Crater of Mount Eccles (Victoria).jpg
"The crater itself is one of the most picturesque in Victoria, owing to the irregularity of its structure, the fanciful disposition of the timber on it declivitous slopes, and to the circumstance that a beautiful fresh water lake occupies the concavity in the centre, and the waters are of a brilliant green harmonizing with the hue of the surrounding vegetation."
