	Abstract		This CD contains a report that summarizes results of
	hydrogeological properties measured from six deep coreholes.  Fifty-six representative
	sandstone samples of the Paskapoo Formation were collected for thin section
	petrography to determine mineralogical, textural, digenetic and aquifer characteristics.
	Major mineralogical compositions, grain constituents and porosity were semi-quantified
	using visual estimation.  Petrography data is summarized in table format, including
	framework mineralogy, diagenetic minerals, rock type, texture and porosity.
	Representative photomicrographs with descriptions of the thin sections are provided.
	Helium porosity measurements were made for all sandstone samples with
	corresponding thin sections.  In addition, air-permeameter measurements, conducted
	by the Alberta Geological Survey, were taken along the cores.  All results and data
	are presented here.  CD is in PDF format.
