New geochemical, hydrological, and neo-tectonic data suggests that existing models that involve recharge in eastern Australia, relatively simple flowpaths and discharge in springs in the western margin require modification. New geochemical data indicate a small volume flux of deeply derived (endogenic) fluids mixing into the aquifer system at a continental scale. Neo- tectonic data indicates active tectonism today that provides a fluid pathway through faults for the deeply sourced endogenic fluids to discharge in GAB travertine depositing springs.", optnote="exported from refbase (http://www.uhydro.de/base/show.php?record=122), last updated on Fri, 26 Jan 2024 13:19:04 +0100", issn="1878-5220", opturl="https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S187852201300146X" }
