The Great Artesian Basin is one of the largest groundwater reservoirs in the world, sustaining life wherever its ancient waters come to the surface. It covers 1.7 million sq km, representing over one fifth of the continent, with most of it lying under Queensland, but extending into NSW, SA and the NT. We take a deep dive into one of the largest groundwater resources in the world, as disparate groups unite in efforts to protect it from general overuse, mining and carbon projects. Other highlights in our August-September issue include the robust Red Centre cattle station Ammaroo and its associated properties, how small players can invest in farming and a photographic exploration of the west coast of SA’s wild Eyre Peninsula.
