Geological mapping shows that the catchment consists of two roughly equal areas. One comprises Cambrian arkose overlain by Permian glacial sands, and the other is composed of Cambrian phyllite and greywacke with thin slopewash cover. Salinity measurements, taken during October 1972 from surface water subcatchment areas, gave several values exceeding 1000 mg/1 (maximum 4 900 mg/1). Higher salinity values occur in water derived from or flowing across the Cambrian phyllites and greywacke.
