Subsurface Geology of Southwestern Ontario
In October, 2003, the Ontario Oil, Gas and Salt Resources Library, the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources, Ontario Geological Survey and Natural Resources Canada entered into a partnership under the Targeted Geoscience Initiative to complete a two-phase project known as Southern Ontario Hydrocarbon Resource Evaluation and Regional Stratigraphic Synthesis. The two phases of work comprise; 1) Hydrocarbon resource evaluation of the Ordovician Trenton-Black River hydrothermal dolomite play in southern Ontario, and 2) Regional stratigraphic correlations.
Part 1 – Hydrocarbon Resource Evaluation
The objective of this part of the Work is to update the evaluation of Ontario’s resources of oil and natural gas which was completed by the Ontario Geological Survey in the early 1980’s. The present study is focussed on assessment of the resources contained in pools discovered in rocks of Ordovician age from 1981 to the end of 2002 and an update of resource additions in previously discovered pools. Most of this phase of the work was contracted to Golder Associates Ltd with contributions by staff of the Ontario Oil, Gas and Salt Resources Library and the Ministry of Natural Resources.

Part 2 – Regional Stratigraphic Correlations
The objective of this part of the work is to produce and publish an updated report based on Paper 67-2 of the Ontario Department of Energy and Resources Management entitled “Guide to the subsurface Paleozoic stratigraphy of southern Ontario”. This phase of the Work is a cooperative effort of the Ontario Geological Survey, the Ontario Oil, gas and Salt Resources Library and the Ministry of Natural Resources.
