Tertiary deep lead deposits in the Iris-Lea River
Valley and the Basalt-Bell Creek Valley are
described. Sediments total 280 in thickness, have
an upper layer of grey billy, and are capped by
basalt and basaltic breccia. The bottom of the
leads lies at up to 150 below the level of the
present drainage and a reversal of drainage
direction may have taken place.

The Royal Society of Tasmania acknowledges, with deep respect, the traditional owners of this land, and the ongoing custodianship of the Aboriginal people of Tasmania. The Society pays respect to Elders past, present and emerging. We acknowledge that Tasmanian Aboriginal Peoples have survived severe and unjust impacts resulting from invasion and dispossession of their Country. As an institution dedicated to the advancement of knowledge, the Royal Society of Tasmania recognises Aboriginal cultural knowledge and practices and seeks to respect and honour these traditions and the deep understanding they represent.
On 15 February 2021, the Royal Society of Tasmania offered a formal Apology to the Tasmanian Aboriginal people.
