Detailed field studies of outcropping material from the Oodnadatta and Wintinna 4 mile areas, supplemented by analyses and petrological descriptions of selected samples, has revealed a rock assemblage of considerable complexity. The results obtained have led to a better understanding of the geological history of the area, and of the genesis of some of the more complex rock types. The characteristics of certain silcretes suggest that they may be of economic value as sources of high purity silica, special abrasives and filtering media.
