Lake Borumba and Yabba Range

This landscape has developed on marine metamorphic beds that have been uplifted and folded. In the those phases many faults and joints have been created giving rise to strong lineaments in the landscape. Here greenstone, intruded granodiorite, phyllites, jasper and mudstone geologies are present.

The structures run north-south whereas the major valleys run west-east.

The variation in the colour of the forests on the ranges is a record of wildfire and recent control-burning history.
