These points were then crosschecked against key references on springs found in the KT-LEB region of South Australia (Gotch (2013); Keppel et al (2016)) to provide information on the spring source aquifer and spring complex name. Information on some additional springs located along Cooper Creek with a Cenozoic source aquifer was obtained from Wopfner (1961).
