Subsurface Mapping and 3D Reconstruction of Silurian Clinton-Medina Groups, Southwestern Ontario

The Silurian age Clinton-Medina Groups is a succession of sedimentary rocks found across Ontario, in outcrop and in the subsurface. The history of the stratigraphy is complex, and therefore confusion exists relating the stratigraphy regionally in the subsurface across Ontario. The Clinton-Medina Group formations are important for Ontario’s energy sector, providing petroleum resources from natural […]

Porosity Development in the karstic Silurian Lockport Group and Salina A Unit in southwestern Ontario and the application of core CT scanning technique

Lockport Group is a carbonate rocks succession that subcrops in southwestern Ontario; a potable water source, oil/natural gas producer and storage, and a hydrochemical indicator interval for potential nuclear waste disposal. Using core logging and lithofacies analysis to establish a sequence stratigraphic model, it is possible to document and interpret the regional geographic and stratigraphic […]

Regional Variation and Geologic Controls on the Porosity and Permeability of the Silurian Lockport Group, southwestern Ontario

The Lockport Group is a succession of carbonate rocks that subcrops in southwestern Ontario. It is of great interest as a source of potable water at shallow depths in Wiarton-Guelph-Hamilton area, of production of oil/natural gas and storage of natural gas and as a hydrochemical indicator interval for potential disposal of nuclear wastes in the […]
