    Notes: Abstract The travertine structure containing Mountford Spring is in the only surface accumulation of CaCO3 on Lake Torrens, a playa in South Australia. Here the first 14C data on Lake Torrens is presented. 14C ages for travertine samples surrounding Mountford Spring, range from 13 770 ± 130 years BP to 22 700 ± 290 years BP, giving a time frame for lacustrine sediments wedged in between. In the absence of recent tectonic movements, the old travertine (22 700 ± 130 years) on the clifftop, surrounded by younger spring deposits (13770 ± 130 years) at a lower level, prove a deflation event at this playa.

    Notes: Abstract The chloride content of the groundwater increases towards Lake Torrens. Major enrichment occurs on the playa and is caused by evaporation from the capillary zone. The chloride is sea derived via cyclic aeolian transport.
