RST Apology to Tasmanian Aboriginal people 2021.
Observations of the relationship between linear
or planar features on either side of dykes usually
form the basis of a field determination of their
mode of emplacement, although it is known that
sections oblique to planar features may lead to conflicting
results. In Eastern Tasmania only rarely
are examples encountered where dyke wall-rock
units are of use. However, dyke wall irregularities
are common and a comparison of opposite walls
have shown the dykes to be intrusive. Disproportionate
offsets of corresponding wall irregularities
due to connecting cross-dykes are general,
which results in intrusive bodies resembling those
of a replacement origin.

The Royal Society of Tasmania acknowledges, with deep respect, the traditional owners of this land, and the ongoing custodianship of the Aboriginal people of Tasmania. The Society pays respect to Elders past, present and emerging. We acknowledge that Tasmanian Aboriginal Peoples have survived severe and unjust impacts resulting from invasion and dispossession of their Country. As an institution dedicated to the advancement of knowledge, the Royal Society of Tasmania recognises Aboriginal cultural knowledge and practices and seeks to respect and honour these traditions and the deep understanding they represent.
On 15 February 2021, the Royal Society of Tasmania offered a formal Apology to the Tasmanian Aboriginal people.
