Author: Miller, P.G.

Reconnaissance sampling of coastal and inland exposures of the Tertiary succession in the Willunga and Noarlunga sub-basins of the Saint Vincent Basin indicates that the P205 content of the sediments is below the average of normal marine carbonates. A mean of 0.09% P205 was recorded from a total of 83 samples, with a range of 0.01% to 0.45% P205.
