Lake Gregory (Paraku) - A salina

This lake also appears to be on a fracture zone.

It is situated between the Great Victoria Desert and the Tanami Desert in the north-east of Western Australia. It has a semi-regular inflow, so remains fresh much of the time, but becomes salty in dry spells when the inflow is reduced.
