Silky Oak
Silky Oak is gravillia robusta (escuse spelling)
N Qld blackwood is acacia melanoxyn (spellingagain)
Same species I understand as Tas blackwood. It just grows better in certain environments. Along the creeks in N NSW, it is common as well, but rarely gets to any size before the grubs get to it, on the highlands on the Gt Divide, it grows OK, but in the moist cool areas of N Qld, it is once again a tree that provides good wood.
That's my understanding anyway.

N Qld Blackwood
We've processed several large logs, as part of loads from N Qld, over the last 12 months. The processed slabs are almost indistinguishable from the Tas variety, I think it is common on the scrub edges, but needs cool moist areas to grow into good timber.
I have also seen some processed boards from N NSW, and they were almost a brown/purple colour: having said that, you get a variety from Tasmania, with some logs cutting up light, almost white, and others dark, which is the sought after colour.
I don't have much knowledge however about its availability from N Qld, perhaps someone else can comment?
Regards
Greg
