Depositional History and Processes at Burford, Ontario

<p> Sediment samples were taken from the exposed facies of two quarries north of Burford Ontario. The samples were then dry sieved and the results were plotted as frequency histograms to show the type and quantity of sediment present. Moreover, measurements of soil tongues, sand lenses and strata depths were recorded to provide a comprehensive understanding of the depositional history and processes.</p> <p> The above research was then combined with the present day comprehension of the depositional history of southern Ontario. The conclusions reached in this paper are useful, as they contribute and improve the understanding of the depositional history of southern Ontario.</p> / Thesis / Candidate in Philosophy
