RB 58/00070 Geophysical investigation at the southern end of Lake Torrens in a search for brines, gravity and magnetic results (19/1/1964).
A gravity trough extending southerly from Lake Torrens suggests a possible subsurface escape route for brines from Lake Torrens. It is recommended that this gravity trough be drilled, however this recommendation may be modified by later seismic...-
