The Cultana basement 3D Geological Model covers a region which includes the Roopena, and western half of the Cultana, 1:100,000 mapsheet areas. The subsurface geology that has been modelled comprises a succession of deformed Palaeoproterozoic sedimentary and intrusive rocks which are overlain by Corunna Conglomerate and Mesoproterozoic Gawler Range Volcanics and are intruded by Hiltaba Suite granites. In the east of the modelled region, the Gawler Craton basement is overlain by a sequence of Neoproterozoic sediments and volcanics of the Stuart Shelf. These sediments have been eroded from the uplifted block of the Cultana Inlier, to expose the basement below.
