Brief description

## **Abstract**

This dataset and its metadata statement were supplied to the Bioregional Assessment Programme by a third party and are presented here as originally supplied.

Boundary of basement inliers penetrating the Great Artesian Basin. These were used to delineate areas of no data in the dataset 'Water table elevation of the Great Artesian Basin' (Geoscience Australia dataset, catalogue \\#75830). Data is available in Shapefile format This GIS data set was produced for the Great Artesian Basin Water Resource Assessment and used in watertable maps in: Chapter 6 of Ransley TR and Smerdon BD (eds) (2012) Hydrostratigraphy, hydrogeology and system conceptualisation of the Great Artesian Basin.
