A further zone of radio-active "Houghton Diorite" was revealed in a scintillometer survey of part sections 5406 and 5516 Hundred of Yatala. The region of radio-active high is located on the slope of a hill and is thought to consist of a zone of primary radio-active material on the upper slope with secondary derived material creating the effect downslope. A number of post holes were made over the radio-active high zones in an attempt to measure the radio-activity of the basement rocks and this experiment afforded interesting results.
