12.01.2022 3D point cloud fly-through of the dry sections of Pannikin Plains Cave, rendered in Unity. Point cloud data collected with the Zebedee 3D Mapping device. This s...ystem was the location of a near disaster 1988 expedition when flash flooding caused a land-slide at the cave. It went on to be the inspiration of the 2011 cave diving film Sanctum. See more

06.01.2022 EXCITING NEWS! We're very happy to announce some long-awaited changes at Kilsby Sinkhole which will allow our site to be more accessible than ever before. To k...ick things off, we're launching an initial summer season of small-group snorkelling experiences inclusive of a site tour, gear hire and in-water guide. This is a great way to explore the site and our new facilities ahead of the commencement of additional above-ground tours and water-based experiences which will become available in 2019. Spots on these initial tours are limited so to book or find out more, go to www.kilsbysinkhole.com #kilsbysinkhole #aplaceforeveryone #snokelling #discovermountgambier #seesouthaustralia
02.01.2022 As many of you may have seen in the news recently, CDAA divers have recently discovered a cache of fossils littered throughout a submerged collapse chamber whil...st exploring a new section of the Tank Cave system. This is an absolutely amazing find, and unlike many of the fossil deposits discovered in other Australian cave systems, provides a unique opportunity to study these remains before any disturbance by humans has occurred. It is a discovery that can provide researchers with a wealth of scientific information a true time-capsule that will allow scientists to learn more about the animals that once roamed the lands of the Lower South East areas of South Australia. In recognition of the importance of this discovery, the CDAA has begun collaborating with expert palaeontologist, palaeoecologist (and CDAA member) Dr Julien Louys, and has immediately declared this part of the cave a control zone. CDAA diver, Ryan Kaczkowski, who is credited with the discovery of the chamber, has provided video and photographic documentation of the fossil remains to Dr Louys and the CDAA. The next step will be for the CDAA to accurately map and survey the area so that Dr Louys and his team will be able to coordinate further research and potential excavation of the fossils later in 2019. To prevent unnecessary disturbance of any fossils, access to the area will be strictly limited to those conducting research and/or documenting the find on behalf of the CDAA, and will require written consent from the CDAA National Committee. To date, some of the remains identified by Dr Louys from photos provided to the CDAA include various species of extinct megafauna such as Australia’s largest known mammalian predator the marsupial lion (Thylacoleo carnifex), and numerous species of kangaroo, including representatives of the short-faced kangaroo sub-family (Sthenurinae). As research continues, we can only dream about what other amazing finds will be uncovered! See more
