60 wells were examined. Information on a further 120 wells was obtained from Departmental records. Very high salinity is characteristic. Useful water has been obtained from Adelaidean sediments, Upper Proterozoic Tent Hill Formation, Cambrian Andamooka Limestone, an unnamed Cretaceous formation, and Cainozoic sediments. Standing water levels ranged from 3 - 15 metres, and yields were small, with supplies as low as 5 kl/day in production.
