Published: 01 Dec 2007 Created: 18 Nov 2024 Revised: 18 Nov 2024

Author: Fairburn, W.A.;Cowley, W.M.

Newly compiled surface geological mapping data for the Adelaide City and inner eastern suburbs is presented as a draft map and explanatory notes. The distributions of Eocene to Holocene units of the St Vincent Basin have been reinterpreted from existing data, with some input from limited additional field work. Included photographs of excavated sedimentary rock exposures, since covered, provide a valuable record.
