Some modifications to methods of relief peel preparation and latex replication have been made for use in the study of the evaporite and carbonate sediments and algal-mats of the peritidal regions of Spencer Gulf, South Australia. The use of hessian backing material enables araldite relief peels to be made of large faces of unconsolidated materials. A technique of cutting sediment cores to provide an undisturbed surface for preparing a peel has been developed to overcome problems of core disturbance or contamination caused by conventional methods of core sawing or core extrusion. Plaster-of-Paris moulds were taken of algal-mat surfaces, including some subject to daily tidal inundation, without extensively damaging the mats. Rubberlin latex casts of these moulds provide detailed replicas of the mat topography.
