The distribution of clastic sedimentary rocks in Western Australia. Clastic sedimentary rocks may form in a basinal environment. Basins are considered to be potential source areas for the circulation of manganese-rich fluids and the early concentration of manganese in carbonate-rich rocks.

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