Alluvial deposits in the Red River Valley constitute a relatively undeveloped but potentially important aquifer in northwestern Louisiana. The alluvium is 75 to 150 feet thick in the thalweg of the entrenched valley. It consists of clay, silt, sand, and gravel; the sand and gravel constitute the lower half of the deposits.
