2.0      DESCRIPTION OF EXISTING CONDITIONS
2.1    Geology and Subsurface Conditions
The 1:100,000 scale Gympie Special Geological Map1 (Ref. Text Figure 2 below) indicates that the site is
underlain by early to middle Triassic age meta-sedimentary geology (‘arenite, argillite, phyllite’) of the Kin
Kin Beds (pale green blue shading).

Along the southern cut batter for the proposed shed pad, exposures of distinctly weathered, low strength
phyllite were observed (Ref. Text Figure 3).

The Ground Drill investigation comprised two boreholes across the proposed building platform to depths
of 0.5 m to 2 m below ground level (BGL). Borehole BH1, closest to the cut batter, encountered distinctly
weathered, low strength rock with auger refusal at 0.5 m BGL. Borehole BH2, closest to the fill batter,
