Potential Field Interpretation of the Capricorn Orogen Key Findings Forward models suggest the seismic line interpretation is consistent with potential field data. Hamersley Group has the potential to extend as far south as the Edmund Basin Magnetic anomalies attributed mainly to the Hamersley Group, Leake Springs Metamorphics and BIF Yilgarn-Capricorn boundary is south-dipping
