Does he use strength or geokinesis? Both? Dont know much about him.
The feat was only preformed after Brion reached his full potential while fighting in his native land of Markovia(which is also his 'place of power'😉, and essentially became a gigantic earth elemental with tremendous power:
Don't get me wrong... I love Brion, and the feat is absolutely beastly(I've been posting it ever since the issue was originally released), but it doesn't seem like that kind of circumstantial power-up is necessarily in alignment with the spirit of this thread. /shrug

He is rather predictable.
Exactly, which is unfortunate. There are certain posters who support certain characters as if they own shares in the companies that publish those characters. In my opinion, the scan you posted clearly showed that a certain spit-curled character being able to lift way in excess of a single rock in Australia. It more than met the criteria for the other question asked ...ability to lift standing and not by flying etc (I could say something about the 'flying' stipulation, but as I am sure the person making it making a loaded point and not being genuine, I will not waste my time).
Your post fully answered the question. Full stop.
As for the original question on the rock - there are several characters. Ranging from Superman (easily) to the Hulk (I'm sure someone will be happy). Those two are the easiest - there's a scan of the Hulk lifting a mountain (as I said, this whole thread is a loaded one ....), and DarkSaint's post shows Superman definitely can do the same (and easily since this riock is significantly smaller than the earth). There are others, but those would be more controversial to some (especially those who feel flying strength is different from 'standing' strength ...Im not one of those due to a more than basic understanding of leverage).

Good choice.
Water is 800% denser than air. Here, you can see what happens when you fire an assault rifle underwater:

Arthur threw a submarine from the bottom of the ocean to the surface, with enough energy to lift it clear out of the water:
Throwing that 20,000 ton sub would be the equivalent of throwing 1.6million tons in air.
And throwing is much harder than lifting. Imagine lifting a 30kg weight...then imagine throwing it.
For those who say you are aided underwater by buoyancy, yes, to a point, but that sub had sunk and was lying on the ocean floor - IOW, no buoyancy.
AQ could do it.

That's one of the more controversial standing characters that could do it, and one of his high end feats back this. So ...yes. Even if maybe not straight up lifting it for a long time (ala Hulk or Superman), but he'd definitely move it off the ground even if not outright lift it.

There was that time where he lifted an entire city block. Not the same as a mountain, but definitely shows AM's strength is not as low as some believe.
Aquaman also stopped the force of Atlan's scepter. As well as covered an entire oceanic trench (which are at the bottom of the sea and he was pressing down on it meaning going against its position.)
Pre52
He resisted Polaris pull who was able to casually lift on Atlantis
As well as the city block feat..
Here's links.
City block with cars, buildings, etc on it as well as underwater.

Aquaman's also done stuff like breakout of a grapple from Wonder Woman or restrain Hercules for 5 panels.
