Abstract
This report has been prepared by Karina Meredith, a hydrogeochemist from Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation’s (ANSTO) Institute for Environmental Research, for the Government of Western Australia (WA), Department of Water (DoW). The purpose of this project was to provide assistance and technical support with groundwater sampling, radiocarbon analysis, interpretation of isotopic and hydrogeochemical data, and radiocarbon correction modelling for groundwater samples. These tasks were completed so that a representative age for groundwaters in the West Canning Basin in the Pilbara Region could be made. This work forms part of the Pilbara Water Smart Australia Project. Crown Copyright © 2009
