107 meters and 143 to 152 meters contain as much as 75% of meta-ande-
Lsite and probably represent Triassic flows.
Temperatures ranged from 11.3*C at 9 meters to 15.90C at 152
meters with an average gradient of 32.1*C/km between 15 and 152
meters. The profile is straight and represents heat flow by conduc-
tion. The low gradient may be partly attributed to the high thermal
conductivity of quartzite which effectively decreases the gradient.
Groundwater encountered at 113 meters may also have a cooling effect
on the gradient.-7-
