The inferred depositional environment of the has implications for the exploration methodology for groundwater in palaeovalleys. The methods that worked effectively for shallower palaeovalley systems in the Kintore and Nyirripi regions (such as TEM) did not work as well in the deeper Cenozoic basin at Central Mount Wedge. Consequently, the experience gained from the reconnaissance-level studies for this project can be used to help guide the most effective application of different survey methods, depending on the type of palaeovalley system to be assessed.
