Millions of years ago the middle of Australia was covered with water and there was a big ditch under the water where Lake Eyre is. Very slowly the water started the to let the patch of Australia that it was covering show for the first time, the only part the water did not leave was the salt lakes in Australia. One of the patches it left the water in was Lake Eyre. The water evaporated but left the salt behind to form beautiful salt crystals to change into different crystals each time the lake flooded and dried.
