Three observation bores were drilled within 1.5km of each other approximately 4km south-west from Waikerie. Depth ranged from 235 to 329m, substantially deeper than all othe bores in the area, and all Tertiary epochs are represented. The stratigraphic value of the drilling is enhanced by 49 tube cores which provide uncontaminated sampls of all pre-Pliocene formations. Palaeontological and palynological examinations have enabled construction of a detailed stratigraphic column from Quaternary to Paleocene.
