RB 80/00028 Hawker town water supply investigation - 1979 drilling programme.
Drilling of 6 scout holes to maximum depth of 152 metres investigated a faulted syncline 5 km SE of the township. Yields were too low or salinity too high to provide a useful supply. Further drilling should be concentrated 11 km NW of Hawker where...-

RB 87/00079 Quorn town water supply.
In 1985 1 production well and 4 scout wells were drilled around Quorn. Pump testing shows the production well has a low long term yield and none of the scout wells show any potential for town water supply. Deeper wells should be drilled in the...-
