The use of hydrochemistry as an age tracer is cost effective and easily applicable. Hydrochemistry has been shown be a useful groundwater age proxy in previous studies. We demonstrated hydrochemistry is a useful complementary age tracer in an NZ aquifer. Hydrochemistry provided additional constraint on age of up to 100 years old groundwater. We also inferred chemistry of recharge and weathering rates from groundwater chemistry.
