The Cromer-C clay deposit consists of three groups of workings extending over 1¼ miles in fractured greywacke rooks of the Kanmantoo Group of sediments. The white clay is derived from kaolinisation of the original sediments possibly due to hydro thermal solutions in the vicinity of a major fault. The clay occurs as pockets, which in the northern group of workings has a general echelon arrangement. Test drilling with a Rarer mounted auger between the groups of workings is suggested.
