The regional hydrogeology of a major portion (Counties Young, Hamley, part Albert and part Alfred) of the northern Murray Basin has been assessed to assist salinity control investigations. 5 main aquifer systems are defined. 2 are pre-Tertiary (Devonian and basal Cretaceous) and restricted within a Mesozoic-Palaeozoic infrabasin at depths below 700 metres. 3 are of Tertiary age and extend over the entire region. Away from the river, hydrogeological data is sparse and the aquifer systems poorly defined, particularly in the northern region.
