Abstract
Recent drilling by Mighty River Power at Kawerau has proven high permeability and good production at depths of 1400-2000m in greywacke. Interference tests among these wells and between them and the existing production wellfield shows very high and horizontally isotropic permeability communicating over several kilometres laterally and a kilometre vertically.
