The Parachilna 1:250 000 map area is about 250 road miles north of Adelaide, South Australia, and includes the eastern shore of Lake Torrens, the central Flinders Ranges and part of the Lake Frome Plains. The ranges are composed of folded Adelaidean (late Precambrian) and Cambrian sedimentary rocks intruded by diapirs, composed of a breccia of the Lower Adelaidean Callana Beds, which were active during sedimentation. Flanking the ranges are older Pleistocene dissected gravels, younger Pleistocene alluvium and Recent soil and sand ridges. Recently worked economic minerals are barytes and galons.
