The distribution of chemical sedimentary rocks, such as carbonate-rich rocks in Western Australia. Chemical sedimentary rocks and the basinal environment in which they commonly form are considered potential source areas for manganese-rich occurrences.

Legend Description
Chemical sedimentary rocks dominant Chemical sedimentary rocks are considered to be a dominant lithology within the polygon. There is a high probability of observing chemical sedimentary rocks in these areas.
