ON THE GEOLOGY OF NATURAL GAS AM) PETROLEUM IX SOUTHWESTERN 



ONTARIO 



BY H. I'. II. BRUMELL 



Remarks were made in discussion by Dr I. C. White, who said : 



That .Mr Brumell's paper was confirmatory of Professor Edward Orton's conclu- 

 sion that the limestone, when a repository of oil or gas, is dolomitic and porous, 

 and that the probable reason why the Dundas anticlinal contains no gas is because 

 the Trenton limestone there is not dolomitic. 



Mr II. M. Ami said: 



That the Trenton is throughout not dolomitic; that the dolomitic layers below 

 are of the Calciferous.
