Following inspections of two bores in Hundred Freeling which were reported to have traversed coal, a regional geological investigation of the district was undertaken. The area occupies a southern part of County Sturt and an eastern part of County Hindmarsh, and includes Hundred Freeling and portions of the Hundreds of Monarto, Mobilong, Bremer, Brinkley and Strathalbyn. Professor R. Tate palaeontologically logged the material from Knight's Bore, Hundred Brinkley, whilst Mr R. Segnit conducted several underground water property investigations in the Hundreds of Freeling and Strathalbyn. Mr R.K. Johns conducted a geological survey in the Rocky Gully area, Hundred Mobilong. The field work for this report was conducted during the latter portion of 1950 under the supervision of Mr L.W. Parkin and Mr R.C. Sprigg.
