Crystalline basement of the Gawler Craton continues further southwards than previously interpreted, extending under northern Kangaroo Island. Depths to basement range from 200 metres near Emu Bay, and approximately 250-750 metres inland from Cape Cassini, to greater depths elsewhere. Basement, assumed to be Palaeoproterozoic Lincoln Complex, is terminated by a complex fault zone analogous in character to the Torrens Hinge Zone of the eastern Gawler Craton.
