Uluru (Ayer's Rock) and Kata Tjuta (The Olgas) are two large and famous monolithic rocks that exist in the southern part of the Northern Territory in Central Australia. Both of these beautiful rocks owe their origin from the The Petermann Ranges, which was a mountain range that was as high as the Himalayas in its peak and was lengthwise similar to the whole Himalayan mountain range. As the Petermann Ranges eroded, large alluvial deposits formed, and at least two of these alluvial fans would, in time, become Uluru and Kata Tjuta in present day. In this video, I will cover how this came to be, and we will dive into how Uluru and Kata Tjuta formed.
Uluru was formally known as Ayres Rock and Kata Tjuta was known as The Olgas and the origin of both of these Australian landmarks is truly extraordinary, stretching for over 600 million years when the mountain that created these two landforms begun its existence.

🌏 About OzGeology
OzGeology is an Australian-based RUclips channel that specializes in creating high-quality documentaries on Earth sciences and natural disasters. The content is designed to be easy to digest and covers a wide range of topics, not only focusing on geology but occasionally exploring other scientific areas as well.
Hope you enjoyed this two part short documentary, guys! As per usual, just a heads up that we'll released the compiled version of these two, tomorrow. Thanks for watching and for supporting the channel! :)
Thanks for making these videos. You make learning about geology really enjoyable
Love the channel.
On g. earth project au gold . Note the circular pattern of no gold near Coffs Harbour. Same circle visible on normal g. earth view.
Also strange piano keys ridge line near Newton Boyd.
Love it mate. Could you please look into the west Australian gold fields and its reefs. Also, Lattimer reef locations, as I believe i have information on that. I'll be actually travelling to the locations i suspect this year. Message me. Cheers
@@hcraretep gravimetrics show a circular anomaly 400+- km in diameter, in a location im trying to get someone with resources to look into. N9 luck so far. My idea is most probably wrong... but trying to get anyone to acknowledge my idea is proving pointless
@@silvergreylion we don't need bull crap, just actual science
Australia's geological history is amazing.
I didn't think I needed this in my life, but now I do. Praise the Algorithm🙌
These video's need to be shown in schools as I'm sure the kids would be most interested in your great work.
This was great .. I'm old but I'm still learning new things all the time :) Thx
Unbelievable process. This is the best explanation I've seen so far.
We need one for Flinders Range south Australia and learn how it formed and how big it use to get before eroding
+1 for this! My uncles property in Crystal Brook is classed at the start of the Flinders Ranges
Brilliant description of this process... keep up the good work Oz
Thanks mate, fascinating as normal. Keep them coming. ❤ from WA
Mt Augustus in Western Australia is twice the size of Uluru and well over twice as old.
Great video. I lived there recently, such an amazing landscape. The layers of its past are clearly visible on much of the McDonnell ranges (made it to Gosse Bluff crater too). It's so interesting how it all formed and slowly eroding away; the land we have is so old.
I was a tour guide up that way a couple of decades ago. We were taught by a local geologist that Uluṟu and Kata Tjuṯa were both part of the same alluvial fan, but that Kata Tjuṯa was near the mouth, and hence collected the larger stones in the aggregate.
p.s. your pronunciation of both Uluṟu and Kata Tjuṯa is terrible. But I love your work.
One more point, the graphic you used shows Uluṟu and Kata Tjuṯa connected underground, and this is known to be false.
Oollooroo 😮
The macron under a consonant means you stress the vowel preceding it.
@@andrewbraithwaite1365 i was jk 😉 didn't know about the macron so cheers for that info 👍
Ooh!! FIRST!!! 😂 (I’m such a child, 51 ya know!). Love LOVE your channel, thank you for what you do 🙏🏼
My Auntie is going to show her school class these videos - I am jealous of those kids knowing this grrrrr. Lucky buggers. Great video!!!!
First class video. Thanks
Did the bucket list thing.. Fly to Adelaide and take Ghan to Darwin breaking the journey and spending a few days in and around Alice. Once in a lifetime for me.
Kata Juta was amazing to go and see first hand. More interesting than Ayers Rock in a way. Tour guide mentioned that the formation goes down 6km but I hadn't realised it was actually connected to Ayers Rock. Hard to figure where all that material came from.. but now knowing there was a 9km high mountain range it all makes sense. .
The name A*ers R*ck is RACIST! It is highly offensive and disrespectful to First Nations Peoples. NEVER SAY IT AGAIN!
Wow dude, you are seriously prolific with your videos ❤❤ 15/10 to you as these videos would take serious effort. Your insights are profound.
I so loved your Chevron stuff in NZ, it made so much sense as I've tramped most of those places! Stewart Is really did get hammered. The Hellfire Pass chevron is unreal! It is literally a steep pass on a mountain ridge but sand! It seems Unbelievable and now it makes sense. You solved my 24 year mystery as how it could exit. Same for Mason Bay n Doughboy Bays (amazing places), then East Ruggedly, where the chevron goes right thru the Island.. You really need to visit them!.. So amazing thank you❤❤
Yes, I'm in VIC and loving your Oz vids it makes so much sense
Ambiguous comment for RUclips algorithm in support of the author. !
Precise & concise.👍
Look forward to seeing these later this year! Bucket-list trip to Oz 😃🌏
Interesting.
Cheers dude, daily oz geographics fix sorted.....eagerly awaiting tomorrow's 😂😊😂😊
I am SO pleaaed thst your channel exists! 🙏
Amazing
Thanks mate. Very handy work for use when teaching the Year 9 earth science curriculum!
Just as lovely as those beautiful Appalachians in the U.S..
You are sensational this is my number 1 🎉 experience.
Peterman was a titan of a man and when he rested he became the mountains and the lands
I just subbed bloke and sill enjoy this I finks
*_I always wondered when and how the sandstone's in Uluru were tipped sideways..._*
I am interested if the Devils Marbles south of Tennant Ck was formed in a similar way?
mate, your videos are fascinating and have given me a new found interest in geology. Here i was thinking we were in the middle of a tectonic plate and safe from all this volcanic activity!
I live in WA and have three interesting geology sites you might like to explore. Firstly, the Stirling Range in southern WA. We climbed to the top of Mount Hassell (approximately 900 metres) to be greeted by seashells. Secondly, Peak Charles in the southern Goldfields area, which is supposed to be an extinct volcano. Lastly, the Napier Range in the far north of WA. It used to be a reef million of years ago. Fascinating stuff.
Live this stuff. What was Australia like just before it began drying out?
I wish we still had a 10+ km mountain range in this continent
I am a long way from spiritual, but the Olgas really are a spiritual place.
Any chance you could do a video on the “Devils Marbles” in the Northern Territory?
Perhaps we should meet - you'd be able to see the Stewart Is pics that show the chevrons: Hellfire Pass, Martin Bay rear dunes (with endangered NZ Dotterals), East Ruggedly is a chevron valley. Smoky Beach chevron dunes... Makes so much sense now why they are shaped as they are. (I've done 55 days tramping it over 5 trips).....
why is the video explanation of uluru private?
Didn't know this.
Hey dude. The link in the description for the last video links to a private video...
Abstract :
The energy that dominates the earth is very great, some of it is natural, like the heat of the sun and volcanoes, and some of it is human action, by cutting down trees, without replacing them and cultivating in their place...
There are five forces that control or dominate the planet...
1- The first theory (horizontal dynamic movement) and its end...
The occurrence of storms, rain, floods and snow, at unexpected times and places, is because of the expiration of this theory, which needs to be balanced...
2- The second theory (vertical dynamic movement) and its end...
This movement or force controls or dominates the earthquakes, earth cracks, drying up of rivers and lakes, earth openings, mountain collapses, and the emergence of drinking water springs on the ground...
It becames out of control...
These phenomena increased due to the end of this theory...
The third theory: it is water that rotates the earth...
The fourth theory: the Earth's axis of rotation has tilted 2° degrees...
The fifth theory: The Earth has a new orbit...
These studies had completed and sent on July 26th 2000

FORCIBLY DISPLACE
The owner of the house looted and burned by C4
This case (the coast of the White Sea shrinking by 100 meters) proved my fourth theory, the deviation of the Earth's rotation axis by two degrees... After the opening of the dams and the water leaking into Syria and Iraq, this force affecting the Earth's rotation axis disappeared, so the rotation axis returned one degree, to be 1 degree, Instead of two degrees...

Imagine if there was gold deposited in that original alluvial fan, easiest gold mine on earth😂
That whole area is so red.
It's called Ayers Rock, always has been, always will be !
Cool story bro.
Thanks for the video and all the research and effort it took to make.
Interesting stuff that I can't wrap my head around but at least i don't flat out deny it, man there's some real nutters in this comment section.
I don't understand how it's called the Peterman Ranges if it existed 500 million years ago & no longer exists. Who was this
Peterman?
That's Ayers Rock.
why is the link to your referenced pre video blocked and private only??
Thanks for pointing this out. We remastered the video, you can find the link to it here: ruclips.net/video/3JzhP8qfbqE/видео.html
Hey good stuff , sent ya some more cash ,,get a box of beers bro ..
Mate you are the best, thank you, you legend! Appreciate ya tons mate!
To the world with my respect and greetings... There are no Arabic, Anatolian, European, Chinese, or Indian dishes... There is water that rotates the earth, and water balances the shape of the earth, its rotation or revolves around itself and around the sun.Ebb and tide are considered as a safety valve for the earth and its rotation...

You realise that the Peterman Ranges are still seismically active.
So, who was this guy Peterman that existed 400 million years ago?
Was called ? Who was around to call it that. It is called…
Isn’t reduced Iron black, rather than silvery?
All the iron ore I have seen in WA is a blue/silver tinge except for the ore in Yandi (WA) which is slightly more purple
@@FPVXTC pretty sure those are iron oxides
No one in Australia pronounces granite like that.
Really? Last time I checked, I'm from Australia. Meaning at least 1 person does.
i thought it was a astroid.
For Shame!
I can't believe that the youtubes allowed you to say Orogeny multiple times throughout your video 🧐
Why?
Orogeny is a very well used geological term...seems like this person has their English nouns confused!
The invalidity of the theory of tectonic creeping of the Earth’s layers, one on top of the other, which is taught at universities ...

So it could be polished up and look shiny?😂
Ayers Rock dummies. 🤠🤠🤠
So what your saying is, it belongs to the earth NOT ANY PEOPLES !!
Nope. Don't put words in my mouth and make a geological video, political.
It is NOT uluru it is AYERS ROCK
lol yeah right!
🤦♀️🤦♀️
Some falsehoods.
Nope.
So it was called the Peterman ranges 500,000,000 years ago.🤦♂🤣
Oh right "We need to go back 900,000,000..." BLA BLA 🍌🐒
They weren't part of it but run off from it
