ABSTRACT
Paleozoic limestones and dolostones have been quarried for many years, providing a source for a wide variety of products, including crushed stone, building stone, lime and cement.
This study identifies more than 750 inactive and abandoned quarries in Ontario, many of which were once significant operations in their time. Most of these quarries are now either filled with water or landfill, or are overgrown. Many are now in urban areas, and have been filled, or have been incorporated into parks and other recreational areas.
Inactive quarries which expose significant geological sections or which historically have been major operations are described here in detail.

PROJECT METHODOLOGY
Geologists of the Sedimentary and Environmental Geoscience Section of the Ontario
Geological Survey (OGS) have recently completed a geological inventory of all active limestone and dolostone quarries in Ontario as part of a larger study on the limestone industry in Ontario (Limestone Industries of Ontario: Deny, Michener, Booth and Wahl and
OGS 1989a, 1989b, 1989c). As a complement to the report on the active quarries, a compilation of the inactive and abandoned quarries in Ontario is presented here. The data for this report is contained on a computer data base, maintained by the OGS, in which the detailed field descriptions of these quarries, as recorded in 1986 by the OGS geologists, are entered. The geologists who provided the detailed geological information of these quarries include, in addition to the author, D. K. Armstrong, R. K. Bezys and V. A. Mazur. The field work was done under the supervision of M. D. Johnson.
In addition to the field work undertaken in 1986, previously published works by
Miller (1904), Parks (1912), Goudge (1938), Hewitt (1960, 1964a, 1964b, 1964c) and Hewitt and
Vos (1972) on the limestone industry of Ontario were also examined, along with those geological reports and maps, published by the OGS and the Geological Survey of Canada, which describe the Paleozoic geology of Ontario.
Following a discussion of the Paleozoic geology of Ontario (summarized from Deny,
Michener, Booth and Wahl and OGS 1989a; and Williams 1991), 147 inactive and abandoned quarries are described in detail. Appendix 1 provides a listing of all the inactive and abandoned quarries in Paleozoic limestone and dolostone strata in Ontario currently known
1 to the Ontario Geological Survey. All known active quarries, described in detail in Deny,
Michener, Booth and Wahl and OGS (1989a, 1989b, 1989c), are also listed. Appendix 2 consists of a set of 18 maps (back pocket) showing the locations of these quarries according to MNR District. Any additions, revisions or deletions to this list would be welcomed by the staff of the Sedimentary and Environmental Geoscience Section, Ontario Geological Survey,

PALEOZOIC GEOLOGY OF ONTARIO
INTRODUCTION
The Paleozoic strata of Ontario occur in a broad area which extends in the east from the
Ontario-Quebec Provincial border southwest across the province to Windsor, with a northerly extension to northern Lake Huron (Figure 1). In addition, small outliers of Paleozoic rock are scattered across the Canadian Shield, the largest of which occurs around the northern end of
Lake Timiskaming. Large areas of the Hudson Bay Lowland are also underlain by strata of
Paleozoic and Mesozoic age.
The sediments of the Paleozoic strata in Ontario were deposited primarily in shallow marine environments, at a time when the province was inundated by a series of inland seas.
These sediments are now the limestones, dolostones, sandstones and shales which underlie parts of Ontario. Within the inland seas, carbonate sedimentation was controlled by the quantity of clastic sediment that entered the sea, the salinity of the seawater, and the rate of calcium carbonate production, and was influenced by the water depth, current direction, and proximity of the shoreline. When the proper conditions prevailed, carbonate sedimentation occurred. Subsequent subsidence and burial led to the formation of the limestone and dolostone strata which have been extensively quarried in Ontario.
The Paleozoic rocks of Ontario can be subdivided into five major regions based on their geographic position and geological age. These regions are: Eastern Ontario
3 Figure 1. Paleozoic geology of southern Ontario. (Ordovician), Central Ontario (Ordovician), the Niagara Escarpment (Silurian), Southwestern
Ontario (Devonian), and Northern Ontario (Cambrian to Cretaceous) (Figure 2). The
Northern Ontario region includes the northern Lake Huron area, the Lake Timiskaming
Outlier, and the Moose River Basin of the James Bay Lowland (see Figure 2).
In southern Ontario most of the Paleozoic strata dip at a shallow angle to the southwest, and combined with erosion, this has resulted in successively younger rocks being exposed to the southwest. Therefore, from northeast to southwest these strata can generally be described in ascending stratigraphic order, from the Cambro-Ordovician in Eastern
Ontario to the Upper Devonian in Southwestern Ontario (see Figure 1).
The Paleozoic rocks, originally deposited as flat-lying units, were subsequently affected, in varying degrees, by several tectonic events. Strata west of Kingston generally dip to the west and south at a rate of a few metres per kilometre, with widely spaced normal faults which rarely express topographic relief. Strata east of Kingston, however, have been disrupted more extensively with displacements across fault zones of several hundred metres, producing non-horizontal beds in places (Williams 1991). The thickness of the Paleozoic strata in Ontario increases in a southwesterly direction to a maximum of about 1350 m near
Sarnia (Johnson et al. 1985). Average thicknesses for the principal carbonate units in which quarries have been commonly developed are shown in Table 1.

LOWER ORDOVICIAN Oxford 120 The major structural features (Figure 3) which influenced the deposition and subsequent distribution of the Paleozoic strata in southern Ontario are:
Michigan Basin - An approximately circular structure (roughly 650 km in diameter), the Michigan Basin was formed by subsidence of the Precambrian basement in central
Michigan. As subsidence continued. Paleozoic sediments collected, reaching a maximum thickness of 4800 m at the basin centre (Fisher et al. 1988), and thinning considerably towards the margin of the basin (as in southwestern Ontario).
Appalachian Basin - This northeast-trending, elongate feature (1400 km long, 800 km wide), centred in New York and Pennsylvania, is a foreland basin which parallels the
Appalachian Mountains. Strata reach a maximum thickness of about 13 000 m in the northern and eastern parts of the basin (Milici and de Witt 1988). The Niagara Peninsula of
Ontario contains strata deposited on the northwestern marginal edge of this structure.
Algonquin Arch - A broad, northeast-trending, Precambrian topographic subsurface feature which acted as a hinge between the Michigan and Appalachian Basins throughout the
Paleozoic, the Algonquin Arch forms the "spine" of southwestern Ontario. Some Paleozoic units thin towards and over the arch, or are completely absent over it. At the southwestern end of the arch, near the United States border, the arch is separated from the Findlay Arch by a major depression called the Chatham Sag (see Figure 3).
Frontenac Axis - An exposed, fault-bounded (in part) highland of Precambrian rocks, which extends from the Canadian Shield to the St. Lawrence River northeast of Brockville,
8 Figure 3. The major structural features of Ontario (from Deny, Michener, Booth and Wahl and OGS 1989a).
9 the Frontenac Axis separates the Paleozoic strata of Eastern and Central Ontario. The strata of both regions are generally similar lithologically, suggesting that the axis was not a major barrier to deposition throughout most of the Paleozoic.
In Northern Ontario, the main tectonic structures which controlled the deposition and distribution of Paleozoic strata include the Cape Henrietta Maria Arch, the Hudson Bay Basin and the Moose River Basin. The Cape Henrietta Maria Arch is a major Precambrian structure which separates the Paleozoic and Mesozoic strata of the Moose River Basin of the James Bay
Lowland from the Paleozoic strata of the Hudson Bay Lowland (see Figure 3). Many of the smaller outliers of Paleozoic strata, such as the Lake Timiskaming Outlier (see Figure 2), were protected from erosion by down-dropped fault blocks.
Almost every Paleozoic carbonate unit exposed at the surface in Ontario has been quarried at some time for some purpose. Most quarries were utilized for crushed stone, although the production of lime, cement and building stone has also been important. The most significant carbonate units, in terms of volume of material extracted and number of quarries, include the Ordovician Oxford, Gull River, Bobcaygeon, and Lindsay formations; the Silurian Lockport, Amabel, Guelph and Bertie formations; and the Devonian Bois Blanc and Dundee formations, and the Detroit River Group.
The following descriptions of the Paleozoic formations of Ontario are grouped into the five major regions (see Figure 2) listed above. Those units which have been significantly quarried are emphasized.
10 PALEOZOIC GEOLOGY OF EASTERN ONTARIO
The Eastern Ontario region, part of the Ottawa-St. Lawrence Lowland (Figure 3), is bounded by Precambrian rocks of the Gatineau Hills to the north and the Frontenac Axis to the west
(see Figure 2). To the south and east, the regional boundary is arbitrarily located along the
Ontario-Quebec provincial boundary and the St. Lawrence River. The Paleozoic rocks in this region (Table 2) include Upper Cambrian to Upper Ordovician sandstones, shales and carbonates (Williams 1991). The carbonates of the Lower Ordovician Beekmantown Group, the Middle Ordovician Rockcliffe Formation and the Ottawa Group have been most extensively quarried. The most common use for the stone from these quarries has been building stone, lime and crushed stone for road construction.
Potsdam Group
As the basal Paleozoic unit in the region, the Cambro-Ordovician Potsdam Group consists of the Covey Hill and overlying Nepean formations (Table 2). The Covey Hill is an interbedded feldspathic conglomerate and sandstone, and the Nepean, a quartz sandstone with minor conglomerate interbeds (Williams 1991). Both units have been quarried for building stone and crushed stone; the Nepean Formation was the source of building stone for the construction of the Parliament Buildings in Ottawa. Many of the old quarries around the
Ottawa area are no longer active and have been filled in and built over.
Beekmantown Group
The Lower Ordovician Beekmantown Group consists of the March Formation, a thin unit consisting of alternating intervals of sandstone, sandy dolostone, and dolostone; and the overlying Oxford Formation, a thick unit of dolostone (Table 2).

UPPE R POTSDAK / POTSDA M CAMBR I 12 March Formation The March Formation consists of alternating intervals of sandstone, dolomitic sandstone, sandy dolostone, and dolostone. The dolostones are fine to medium crystalline and range from thin to thick bedded. The sandy dolostone beds contain medium- to coarse-grained quartz grains. The thicker dolostone and sandy dolostone beds of the formation were often utilized for building stone, both in the construction of local buildings and in the dams and canals of the Rideau Canal system. Oxford Formation The dolostones of the Oxford Formation are light brownish to greenish grey in colour, microcrystalline to medium crystalline and range from medium to thick bedded. There are numerous abandoned quarries throughout Eastern Ontario, where the formation outcrops, as the dolostones were commonly used in road construction. Rockcliffe Formation The Middle Ordovician Rockcliffe Formation, which disconformably overlies the Beekmantown Group (see Table 2), consists of interbedded quartz sandstone and shale, with an upper member, called the St. Martin Member, of fine- to coarse-crystalline limestone. In the eastern part of the region where the upper member forms outcrops, several quarries were opened in the calcium-rich limestones for lime and cement. Ottawa Group The carbonates of the Middle Ordovician Ottawa Group have been subdivided into the following formations (in ascending stratigraphic order): the Shadow Lake, Gull River, 13 Bobcaygeon, Verulam, and Lindsay formations (see Table 2). These formations are defined on the type of carbonate present, presence or absence of shale interbeds, crystallinity, bed thickness, and colour. Shadow Lake Formation The Shadow Lake Formation in Eastern Ontario consists of silty and sandy dolostones with thin intervals of sandstone and shale. The dolostones are microcrystalline to fine crystalline and very thin to thick bedded. This thin formation has not been significantly quarried. Gull River Formation The Gull River Formation is subdivided into two members: a lower member of interbedded microcrystalline to fine-crystalline, thin- to thick-bedded limestone and fine-crystalline, thin- to thick-bedded, silty dolostone, with minor interbeds of quartz sandstone and shale; and an upper member of thin- to thick-bedded, microcrystalline to fine-crystalline limestone, interbedded with thin shale intervals. Where this formation is exposed in the Ottawa and Cornwall areas, it has been quarried extensively, primarily for crushed stone for road construction, rarely for lime. Bobcaygeon Formation The limestones of the Bobcaygeon Formation are interbedded with varying amounts of shale, which is the basis upon which the three members are recognized. The lower member consists of thick-bedded, sporadically chert-rich, relatively shale-free, microcrystalline to medium-crystalline limestone, with interbedded intervals of calcarenitic limestone. The middle member consists of interbedded microcrystalline to coarse-crystalline limestone, fine- 14 to medium-grained calcarenitic limestone, and calcareous shale. The upper member generally consists of medium-bedded, shale-free, microcrystalline to coarse-crystalline limestone. Outcrops of the formation are abundant in the Ottawa area, where many quarries have been developed to extract the thick beds of the lower member for building stone use. All members of the formation have also been used for crushed stone for road construction and as a source for lime. Verulam Formation The Verulam Formation consists of interbedded limestone and shales. The limestones are predominantly grey-brown, thin to medium bedded, fossiliferous, microcrystalline to coarse crystalline, and include medium- to coarse-grained calcarenites. The grey, commonly calcareous, shale interbeds are often as thick as the limestone beds. Outcrops of the formation are present around Ottawa and to the east, but the high shale content of the formation has restricted its use for most products. It has been only used as a source of crushed stone for road construction when no other material was available. Lindsay Formation The Lindsay Formation is subdivided into two members (see Table 2). The lower unnamed member is a thick interval of grey, thin- to thick-bedded, microcrystalline to coarse- crystalline, nodular limestone, with thin shale interbeds. The thinner, upper member, called the Eastview Member, is a black, petroliferous, calcareous shale, which is equivalent to the Collingwood Member (an oil shale), Lindsay Formation, of Central and Southwestern Ontario. The lower member has been used extensively for crushed stone where it outcrops in the eastern part of the region. 15 Billings, Carlsbad and Queenston Formations The Upper Ordovician Billings, Carlsbad, and Queenston formations (see Table 2) are thick shale units which are rarely exposed at the surface. Consisting of dark brown to black, noncalcareous shale with minor limestone and calcareous siltstone interbeds; interbedded blue-grey, calcareous shale, fossiliferous, calcareous siltstone, and silty bioclastic limestone; and maroon and olive-grey noncalcareous shales, respectively, these formations, especially the Queenston Formation, have been utilized by the brick and tile manufacturing industry. PALEOZOIC GEOLOGY OF CENTRAL ONTARIO The Central Ontario region includes the area between the Niagara Escarpment to the west and the Frontenac Axis to the east, and is bounded by Precambrian rocks to the north and Lake Ontario to the south (see Figure 2). The strata exposed in this region range from Middle to Late Ordovician in age and consist primarily of carbonates and shales. The Paleozoic strata dip gently southwestward, exposing successively younger rocks to the west. While the lithologies of these Paleozoic strata are similar to those in Eastern Ontario of the same age, historical differences (Wilson 1946; Liberty 1969b; Williams 1991) have resulted in a different stratigraphic nomenclature for each region (see Table 2). Recent efforts have been undertaken by the OGS to standardize this nomenclature (see Deny, Michener, Booth and Wahl and OGS 1989; and Williams 1991; for a detailed discussion). The following summary is based upon the classification established by Liberty (1969b) as modified by Williams (1991). Shadow Lake Formation The Middle Ordovician Shadow Lake Formation in Central Ontario occupies the same stratigraphic position as the Shadow Lake Formation in Eastern Ontario (see Table 2), but 16 because it overlies the Precambrian surface in Central Ontario its lithology is very different than that in Eastern Ontario. The Shadow Lake Formation of Central Ontario is therefore not included with the overlying Simcoe Group carbonates (see Table 2), as is the case in Eastern Ontario, where the Shadow Lake forms the base of the laterally equivalent Ottawa Group carbonates. The formation consists of conglomerates, sandstones and shales. Although the unit may be exposed at the floor of a quarry, the clastic nature of the formation makes it unattractive for most uses. Simcoe Group The Middle Ordovician carbonate sequence known as the Simcoe Group in Central Ontario is correlative to the Ottawa Group, excluding the Shadow Lake Formation, of Eastern Ontario (see Table 2). The formations of each group can be correlated directly. Gull River Formation The Gull River Formation in Central Ontario, like that in Eastern Ontario, can be subdivided into two members. The lower member consists of interbedded, microcrystalline to fine- crystalline limestone and fine-crystalline, silty dolostone, and the upper member consists of thin-bedded, fine- to medium-crystalline limestone, interbedded with thin shale units. Bedrock exposures from Georgian Bay to Kingston of this formation have been extensively quarried for building stone, lime and crushed stone. Bobcaygeon Formation The Bobcaygeon Formation is subdivided into three members based upon the presence or absence of significant amounts of interbedded shale. The lower member is a very thick- 17 bedded, microcrystalline to fine-crystalline, shale-free, sporadically cherty limestone with interbeds of medium- to coarse-grained calcarenites. The middle member consists of thin- to medium-bedded, fine- to medium-crystalline limestone, with scattered medium- to coarse grained calcarenite beds, interbedded with thin shale beds. The upper member consists of fine- to medium-crystalline, relatively shale-free limestone. Natural exposures of the formation are rare because of thick Quaternary deposits which overlie the formation, but where it is exposed, these strata have been extensively quarried, especially the thick beds of lower member for building stone. Verulam Formation As in Eastern Ontario, the Verulam Formation in Central Ontario consists of interbedded limestone and shale. The thin- to medium-bedded limestones range from a very fine- crystalline, fossil-free variety to a coarse-grained, bioclastic limestone. The formation has been rarely quarried because of the thick overlying Quaternary deposits and its high shale content. Lindsay Formation The Lindsay Formation is subdivided into two members: a lower unnamed nodular limestone member and the overlying Collingwood Member, a black, petroliferous, calcareous shale. The Collingwood Member can be directly correlated with the Eastview Member, Lindsay Formation, of Eastern Ontario. The carbonates of the lower member range from thin- to medium-bedded, very fine-crystalline to coarse-crystalline, nodular limestone, with most beds being medium crystalline. Thin shale intervals are common throughout the lower member. The nodular limestones of the lower member have been extensively quarried for 18 crushed stone and raw material for the manufacture of cement in Prince Edward County, where the overburden is thin or absent. The petroliferous, black, calcareous, organic-rich shales of the Collingwood Member were once a source of hydrocarbons in the mid 1800's. Blue Mountain Formation The Upper Ordovician Blue Mountain Formation (see Table 2), a thick sequence of blue-grey shales, is rarely exposed because of thick Quaternary deposits, and has not been quarried. Georgian Bay Formation The Georgian Bay Formation (see Table 2) consists of a thick interval of interbedded limestone and shale with minor dolostone and sandstone interbeds. Its high shale content and limited exposure, due to thick overlying Quaternary deposits, have limited the usefulness of the formation to the limestone industry. Where the rocks of the formation are exposed, the shale-rich intervals have provided a source of material for several brick and tile operations. Queenston Formation The Upper Ordovician Queenston Formation (see Table 2), a thick unit of maroon shales and interbedded greenish grey siltstones and shales, rarely forms natural outcrops, except along the base of the Niagara Escarpment. Several quarries have used the shales of this formation for the manufacture of brick and ceramic products. THE PALEOZOIC GEOLOGY OF THE NIAGARA ESCARPMENT The Niagara Escarpment exposes Silurian carbonates which are underlain by shales and 19 softer carbonates of Silurian and Ordovician age. In Ontario, the Niagara Escarpment extends westward from the Niagara River to Hamilton, where it swings north and west to the Bruce Peninsula. In northern Lake Huron the escarpment continues westward across Manitoulin Island and into Michigan (see Figure 2). The escarpment itself consists of single, or (rarely) multiple, north-, northeast-, or east-facing cliffs, with the Paleozoic strata extending away from the face at a shallow dip to the southwest. The Silurian strata of the Niagara Escarpment were deposited under the influence of both the Appalachian and Michigan basins. Along the Niagara Peninsula, situated on the northwestern margin of the Appalachian Basin, the Silurian strata consist predominantly of terrigenous clastic sedimentary rocks, whereas to the northwest, around Lake Huron, the rocks consist predominantly of carbonates, having being deposited under the influence of the Michigan Basin. This difference in geologic history is reflected in the stratigraphic nomenclature of each of these areas (Table 3). The Paleozoic strata exposed along the Niagara Escarpment range from the Upper Ordovician Queenston Formation to the Middle Silurian Guelph Formation (see Table 3). The following discussion summarizes the more detailed formation descriptions found in Bolton (1953, 1957), Liberty and Bolton (1971), and Sanford (1972). Stratigraphic nomenclature used in this report follows that of Bolton (1957). However, since the time of writing (1988), some changes have been made to the stratigraphic nomenclature of the Silurian, particularly with respect to the Clinton Group and Amabel Formation on the Bruce Peninsula. This is discussed in more detail by Johnson et al. (1992). 20 Table 3. Paleozoic nomenclature of the bedrock exposed along the Niagara Escarpment (from Deny, Michener, Booth and Wahl and OGS 1989a).

ORD PPE R 3 -feNot present south of Owen Sound **Not present north of Collingwood Modified after Bolton, Table 1, 1957 21 Cataract Group In the Niagara Peninsula area, the Lower Silurian Cataract Group is subdivided into the Whirlpool, Cabot Head (in the eastern part of the Niagara Peninsula, the Power Glen Formation of Bolton, 1953, 1957), and Grimsby formations, and in the Bruce Peninsula area, into the Whirlpool (where present), Manitoulin, and Cabot Head formations (see Table 3). Due to their predominantly clastic nature, the grey shales of the Power Glen Formation; the red shales and sandstones of the Grimsby Formation; and the red and green shales of the Cabot Head Formation have not been quarried by the limestone industry. The white, quartz sandstones of the Whirlpool Formation and the dolostones of the Manitoulin Formation have been quarried for building stone and crushed stone, respectively. Manitoulin Formation The Manitoulin Formation is the only carbonate unit in the Cataract Group and consists of blue-grey to brown, thin-bedded, fine- to medium-crystalline dolomitic limestone and dolostone, which is locally chert-rich. Although the unit has good potential as a building stone, it has generally been under-exploited, particularly on Manitoulin Island, where bedrock exposures of the formation are extensive. Likewise, to the south, the dolostones occur only in cliff sections, and thus have been rarely quarried. Clinton Group The Middle Silurian Clinton Group has been divided into several formations which are restricted in their occurrence to either the southern or northern portions of the escarpment. In the Niagara Peninsula area, the following formations are present within the Clinton Group (in ascending stratigraphic order): the Thorold, Neahga, Reynales, Irondequoit, Rochester, 22 and Decew formations (see Table 3). To the north, along the Bruce Peninsula, the following formations are recognized (in ascending stratigraphic order): the Dyer Bay, Wingfield, St. Edmund, and Fossil Hill formations (see Table 3). The formations of the Clinton Group are generally thin and are usually only exposed in the cliff sections of the escarpment. The only units which have been quarried are the upper, predominantly dolostone formations, which have been excavated with the rocks of the overlying units. Thorold and Neahga Formations Along the Niagara Peninsula, the Thorold Formation is a thin, grey-green to white, quartz sandstone which is overlain by the grey to green shales and minor thin limestone interbeds of the Neahga Formation. These thin (up to 6.5 m and 2 m thick, respectively) formations have not been quarried by the limestone industry. Dyer Bay, Wingfield, and St. Edmund Formations These formations are restricted to the northern part of the Bruce Peninsula and Manitoulin Island. The Dyer Bay Formation is a thin, very fossiliferous, impure dolostone which is overlain by the green shales and shaly dolostones of the Wingfield Formation. The overlying St. Edmund Formation consists of grey to brown, thin- to medium-bedded, microcrystalline to medium-crystalline dolostone. Commonly, these formations are naturally exposed as cliff sections. The St. Edmund Formation has been quarried on Manitoulin Island for crushed stone. Reynales and Fossil Hill Formations The Reynales Formation, present along the Niagara Peninsula as far north as Acton, is 23 approximately stratigraphically equivalent to the Fossil Hill Formation, which occurs to the north along the Bruce Peninsula. The Reynales Formation is a thin- to thick-bedded, argillaceous, sparsely fossiliferous (except in the lower beds) dolostone and dolomitic limestone. The Fossil Hill Formation is a fine- to coarse-crystalline dolostone, commonly containing significant amounts of chert and silicified fossils. While rarely quarried on then- own, these formations have been extracted with the overlying strata of the Lockport or Amabel formations. Irondequoit, Rochester, and Decew Formations Overlying the Reynales Formation along the Niagara Peninsula eastward from Hamilton are the Irondequoit, Rochester and Decew formations. The Decew Formation is restricted to the area between Ancaster and the Niagara River, whereas the Irondequoit and Rochester formations extend northward a short distance to Clappison's Corners (just north of Dundas). The Irondequoit Formation is a massive-bedded, coarse-crystalline, crinoidal limestone, locally dolomitic. The Rochester Formation is a dark grey, calcareous shale with numerous fossiliferous limestone lenses. The Decew Formation consists of argillaceous to arenaceous, very fine-crystalline, dolomitic limestones and dolostones. These formations are generally not quarried on their own but they have been extracted with the overlying strata. The Decew Formation had been quarried in the 1800s as it formed a natural cement when burnt. The introduction of Portland cement led to the closure of these quarries by the early 1900s. Lockport and Amabel Formations The Clinton Group is overlain by the Middle Silurian Lockport Formation along the Niagara Peninsula and by the stratigraphically equivalent Amabel Formation to the north (north of 24 Waterdown) (see Table 3). Both formations are essentially similar dolostones, although significant differences occur between them in bedding character, crystal size, and colour. The Lockport Formation is subdivided into three members (in ascending stratigraphic order): the Gasport, Goat Island and Eramosa members. The Eramosa Member also extends northward to become the uppermost member of the Amabel Formation (see Table 3). Recent work (Armstrong and Meadows 1988), however, suggests that due to lithological similarities and the interbedded nature of the unit with overlying strata, the Eramosa Member on the Bruce Peninsula may be best assigned to the overlying Guelph Formation. The Gasport Member is a blue-grey, thin- to very thick-bedded, fine- to medium-crystalline, crinoidal dolomitic limestone. The Goat Island Member is a grey, thinner and irregularly bedded, fine- crystalline dolostone, locally cherty or shaly. In the Hamilton area a thick interval of chert- rich dolostone in the Goat Island Member is informally called the "Ancaster chert beds". The Eramosa Member is a brown, thin-bedded, fine-crystalline, bituminous dolostone, with minor shale partings. The Amabel Formation on the Bruce Peninsula is also subdivided into three members (in ascending stratigraphic order): the Lions Head, Wiarton/Colpoy Bay, and Eramosa members (see Table 3). The Lions Head Member is a brown, very fine- to fine-crystalline dolostone. The overlying Wiarton/Colpoy Bay Member is a grey, thick- to massive-bedded, fine- to coarse-crystalline, crinoidal dolostone. As in the Lockport Formation, the Eramosa Member of the Amabel Formation is a brown, laminated, fine-crystalline, bituminous dolostone. 25 The Lockport and Amabel formations commonly form the crest of the Niagara Escarpment, and this has led, in the past, to the development of numerous quarries along the edge of the escarpment. The lower members were primarily utilized for crushed stone and lime, whereas the laminated dolostones of the Eramosa Member were often used as ornamental and building stone. Guelph Formation The uppermost unit on the Niagara Escarpment from the Niagara River north to the tip of the Bruce Peninsula is the Guelph Formation (see Table 3), which commonly outcrops to the west and southwest of the crest of the escarpment. The formation is typically a brown, thick- to massive-bedded, medium-crystalline, fossiliferous, porous dolostone, often with a distinctive sugary texture. Massive-bedded reefal zones are also present, especially in the area between the Bruce and Niagara peninsulas. The dolostones of the Guelph Formation have been used as a source for dolomitic lime and crushed stone. PALEOZOIC GEOLOGY OF SOUTHWESTERN ONTARIO The Southwestern Ontario region is bounded by Lakes Huron, St. Clair, Erie, and Ontario to the west, south, and southeast, with the crest of the Niagara Escarpment delineating the northern and eastern boundary (see Figure 2). The Paleozoic strata deposited in this region were influenced by the Appalachian Basin to the southeast and the Michigan Basin to the west (see Figure 3). The Algonquin Arch, which acted as a topographic high, marking the boundary between these two basins, also affected the type of sediments that were deposited between the basins. The resulting complex stratigraphy has resulted in a correspondingly complex stratigraphic nomenclature (Table 4). Throughout most of southwestern Ontario the 26 Table 4.

CO 27 strata are most similar to those which occur in the Michigan Basin, and thus the formational names are derived primarily from the Michigan Basin succession. The exception occurs along the Niagara Peninsula, where sediments of the Appalachian Basin predominate, resulting in the use of formational names derived from New York (see Caley 1945; Uyeno et al. 1982; and Telford and Johnson 1984; for more detailed discussions). The Paleozoic units exposed in southwestern Ontario range from the Upper Silurian Salina Formation to the Upper Devonian Port Lambton Group (see Table 4). Most areas in southwestern Ontario are covered by thick Quaternary deposits and therefore have limited outcrop exposure. Where the bedrock is exposed it has been primarily quarried for lime, gypsum, salt and crushed stone. Salina Formation The oldest unit, the Upper Silurian Salina Formation, is a thick sequence of dolostones, shales, gypsum and halite which is commonly covered by extensive, thick Quaternary deposits throughout most of the region. Although mined for salt near Sarnia, and gypsum at Drumbo, Caledonia and Hagersville, the Salina Formation has not been quarried for use by the limestone industry. Bertie and Bass Islands Formations The dolostones of the Upper Silurian Bertie Formation, which overlie the Salina Formation (see Table 4), are subdivided, in the eastern part of the Niagara Peninsula, into five members (in ascending stratigraphic order): the Oatka, Falkirk, Scajaquanda, Williamsville, and Akron members. These members range from shaly dolostones to calcareous dolostones with 28 limestone interbeds. West of the Niagara Peninsula, the dolostones of the Bertie Formation grade into the laterally equivalent brown, microcrystalline dolostones of the Bass Islands Formation (see Table 4). The upper contact of the Bertie/Bass Island Formation is the boundary between the Silurian and Devonian in Ontario. This surface marks a major unconformity and displays evidence of subaerial exposure and erosion. The lack of large areas of bedrock exposure in most of the region has inhibited major quarrying in either formation, although there have been (and still are) major quarries (for crushed stone) operating in the Bertie Formation along the Niagara Peninsula. Oriskany and Bois Blanc Formations In a few scattered localities, immediately overlying the Silurian-Devonian unconformity, is a thin interval of quartz sandstones assigned to the Lower Devonian Oriskany Formation. Elsewhere overlying the unconformity are the carbonates of the Lower Devonian Bois Blanc Formation (see Table 4), which is typically a Michigan Basin unit. The strata of the Bois Blanc Formation cross over the Algonquin Arch from the Michigan Basin to interfinger with equivalent limestone and clastic units of the Appalachian Basin. The formation typically consists of a cherty limestone with shaly partings, and rarely interbedded dolomitic limestones. The Springvale Sandstone Member is a basal calcareous, glauconitic sandstone or sandy limestone unit which occurs at some localities within the Niagara Peninsula. In some areas it can be difficult to separate it from the sandstones of the Oriskany Formation. The western occurrences of the Bois Blanc Formation commonly consist of fine-crystalline, sugary 29 dolostone. Only scattered exposures of the Bois Blanc Formation occur in southwestern Ontario and quarries are thus rare. Where bedrock exposures do occur, the rock of the Bois Blanc Formation had been used primarily for crushed stone. Onondaga Formation The Middle Devonian Onondaga Formation extends westward from the Appalachian Basin in New York into the Niagara Peninsula, where it is well exposed (see Table 4). Four members have been recognized in this formation (in ascending stratigraphic order): the Edgecliff, Clarence, Moorehouse and Seneca members. Only the three lower members actually extend into and outcrop in the Niagara Peninsula. Consisting of a complex sequence of bioclastic, biohermal, biostromal, cherty and shaly limestone, these members grade laterally westward into the carbonates of the Michigan Basin-derived Amherstburg Formation of the Detroit River Group (Table 4). Where it is exposed, the Onondaga Formation has been quarried for crushed stone, especially in the Port Colborne and Welland areas. Detroit River Group West of the Niagara Peninsula, the lower part of the Onondaga Formation is correlative with the Middle Devonian Detroit River Group. The group consists of the lower Amherstburg and overlying Lucas formations (see Table 4). Naturally occurring exposures of these strata are rare because of thick Quaternary deposits, although exposures are present in currently active quarries near Beachville, Woodstock, Amherstburg and St. Mary's. 30 Amherstburg Formation The Amherstburg Formation consists of a bituminous, chert-rich, bioclastic limestone which contains a diverse coral-stromatoporoid fauna. A localized, calcium-rich, stromatoporoid- rich, limestone interval in the Amherstburg Formation is referred to as the "Formosa Reef Limestone". Lucas Formation Overlying the Amherstburg Formation are the strata of the Lucas Formation, consisting of a complex sequence of lithologies. The most common rock types include micritic limestone, dolostone, halite and anhydrite. Along the western edge of the region, the evaporites are predominantly replaced by dolostones and calcium-rich limestones. One of these calcium- rich limestone units in the upper part of the Lucas Formation is called the Anderdon Member. The scarcity of bedrock exposures of the Detroit River Group, because of thick Quaternary deposits which overlie it, has provided few opportunities for quarry development. It is only recently that market conditions have made it profitable to remove the overburden to extract the calcium-rich limestones, which are used for metallurgical processes, cement manufacture and aggregate. Dundee Formation The Middle Devonian Dundee Formation consists of medium- to thick-bedded, micritic and bioclastic, locally cherty, limestones occurring between the carbonates of the Detroit River Group and the overlying shales of the Marcellus Formation and Hamilton Group. Although 31 bedrock exposures of the formation are scarce, exposures do occur sporadically along the Lake Erie shoreline. The unit has been used by the limestone industry for cement manufacture and aggregate. Marcellus Formation, Hamilton Group, Kettle Point Formation and Port Lambton Group Overlying the limestones of the Dundee Formation is a thick sequence dominated by grey to black shales and shaly limestones of the (in ascending order) Middle Devonian Marcellus Formation and Hamilton Group, and the Upper Devonian Kettle Point Formation and Port Lambton Group (see Table 4). Except for limestones of the Widder Formation (Hamilton Group), which have been quarried in the Arkona area for crushed stone, these units have only been used by the brick and tile industry. PALEOZOIC GEOLOGY OF NORTHERN ONTARIO For purposes of this report, the Northern Ontario region includes Canadian Shield areas north of the French River that are overlain by Paleozoic rocks. Paleozoic rocks occur in Northern Ontario (see Figure 2) on the northern Lake Huron islands of Manitoulin, Cockburn, and St. Joseph, and in the Sault Ste. Marie area; around the northern end of Lake Timiskaming; in the Hudson Bay Lowland; and as very small, local deposits which occur sporadically across the Canadian Shield. These areas will be discussed separately because of the unique geology of each area. Northern Lake Huron Ordovician and Silurian strata are exposed on Manitoulin, Cockburn and St. Joseph islands in 32 northern Lake Huron (Table 5). Cambrian sandstones occur in the Sault Ste. Marie area. The Ordovician strata are exposed on Manitoulin and St. Joseph islands are assigned to the Upper Ordovician Collingwood Member (Lindsay Formation), and Blue Mountain and Georgian Bay formations. Older Ordovician strata occur on smaller islands to the north of Manitoulin Island. The Silurian rocks, exposed on Manitoulin and Cockburn islands, represent the most northerly extension of the Niagara Escarpment and include (in ascending order) the Manitoulin, Cabot Head, Dyer Bay, Wingfield, St. Edmund, Fossil Hill and Amabel formations (Table 5). The characteristics of the Ordovician and Silurian strata in this region are essentially the same as those in Central Ontario and on the Niagara Escarpment. Several small quarries had been developed for local uses on the islands, especially for crushed stone and lime. Timiskaming Outlier A large area of Ordovician and Silurian carbonates and shales has been preserved at the northern end of Lake Timiskaming in a down-dropped fault block. The Lake Timiskaming Middle Ordovician units, which differ significantly from southern Ontario units of similar age, include (in ascending stratigraphic order): the Guigues (basal conglomerate and sandstone), Bucke (limestone), Farr (mottled limestone) and Dawson Point (black shale) formations (Russell 1984) (see Table 5). The Silurian strata include (in ascending stratigraphic order): the Lower Silurian Manitoulin (dolostone) and Cabot Head (shale) formations, and the Middle Silurian Evantural Creek (shale), Earlton (cherty dolostone) and Thornloe (dolostone) formations (Russell 1984) (see Table 5). 33 Table 5.

James Bay Lowland - Moose River Basin The Moose River Basin, underlying the James Bay Lowland, in the southern part of the Hudson Platform (see Figure 3), contains a thick Paleozoic and Mesozoic succession which includes Ordovician (Churchill River Group, Red Head Rapids Formation), Silurian (Severn River, Ekwan, Attawapiskat and Kenogami River formations), Devonian (Kenogami River, Sextant, Stooping River, Kwataboahegan, Moose River, Murray Island, Williams Island and Long Rapids formations), Middle Jurassic (Mistuskwia Beds), and Lower Cretaceous (Mattagami Formation) sediments (Table 6). North and west of the Moose River Basin, Paleozoic strata extend across the Cape Henrietta Maria Arch and into the Hudson Bay Basin (see Figure 3). The Middle Devonian carbonate units are the most desirable strata for the limestone industry, especially the Kwataboahegan, Murray Island and Williams Island formations. However, the isolation of this region, its sparse population and the nature of the terrain have precluded any quarry development, except for an intermittently operated quarry near Moosonee. The material excavated from this quarry (the medium crystalline, biostromal limestone of the Kwataboahegan Formation) was used in the construction of a nearby airport (Deny, Michener, Booth and Wahl and OGS 1989b). 35 Table 6.

A few of these quarries were licenced under the Pits and Quarries Control Act when they were visited for this report, but were not included in the Limestone Industries of Ontario (Deny, Michener, Booth and Wahl and OGS 1989a, 1989b, 1989c) because they were inactive at the time of the field work for that study, or else quarrying had not yet started. Some of the quarries included in this report have been inactive for many years and are included here because of their historical importance. Several quarries listed in Appendix 1 are now no longer visible because they have been filled, some by landfill, others for residential or industrial construction. The locations of these quarries were determined from old geological or topographical maps, or from information in old geological reports. More detailed information on these (or any other) quarries can be obtained from the Sedimentary and Environmental Geoscience Section, Ontario Geological Survey. The detailed descriptions are subdivided alphabetically by Districts of the Ministry of Natural Resources. An Index Map of these districts is included with the other maps in the back pocket (see Appendix 2). 37 THIS PAGE IS LEFT INTENTIONAL BLANK 3?

The quarry was operated by Innerkip Quarries, Limited, initially for lime in the late nineteenth century, and later for railway ballast between 1929 and 1933. Depending on the elevation of the water level, the section above the water exposes the contact between the dolostones of the Upper Silurian Bertie Formation and the overlying cherty limestones of the Lower Devonian Bois Blanc Formation. The Upper Silurian dolostones at the base of the exposed section have also been referred toosthe Akron Dolomite (Stumm et al. 1956) and the Bass Island(s) Formation (Liberty and Bolton 1971; Cowan 1975a; Winder et al. 1975; oc$. 1983^. The contact between the formations is approximately 1 metre above the water level and is characterized by iron-rich concretions and a thin sandy zone, with small pebbles, at the base of the Bois Blanc Formation (Winder et al. 1975, p.150). Goudge (1938) reported that the quarry was up to 33 feet (10 m) deep, with an additional 24 feet (7.8 m) exposed below the quarry floor in the excavation for the crushing plant. The irregular bedrock surface around the quarry brings the Silurian strata to the surface in places.

The quarry was opened in the late 1800's to provide lime for local farmers. In the early 1900's production was considerably increased when the quarry was operated by Gypsum, Lime, and Alabastine, Canada, Limited. The adjacent lime kilns produced a variety of limes, including white finishing hydrated lime, masons' hydrated lime, lump lime, agricultural lime, and speciality lime for chemical uses (Goudge 1938). Waste stone was crushed at the quarry and sold to local contractors. The quarry and plant were closed in 1932 because of a decreased demand for dolomitic lime. Since then the quarry has been idle, and the site is currently a popular swimming site. The quarry still exposes a considerable section of the Middle Silurian Guelph Formation. The 18.0 m thick quarry face consists of porous, fossiliferous dolostone. The fossils present in these strata include corals, brachiopods, gastropods, and numerous, large bivalves. Also, the numerous small vugs in these dolostones are commonly lined with small calcite and dolomite crystals.

The quarry was operated in the early 1930's by Ritchie Cut Stone, Limited for building stone. The stone, known as "Wellington Limestone" was used in the construction of the Commercial Hotel and the Bank of Commerce in Fergus, and in the College of Pharmacy building (now part of the University of Toronto) on Gerrard Street in Toronto. By the mid 1930's the quarry was only producing crushed stone, as the dolostone beds were not thick enough to consistently produce large mill blocks. The quarry was closed in the mid 1940's. The now overgrown quarry still exposes about 4 metres of dolostone of the Middle Silurian Guelph Formation. The light brown, medium, irregularly bedded (40-60 cm beds), very fine-crystalline dolostone weathers to very light brown.

The quarry was originally opened in the late 1800's by Christie, Henderson, and Company to provide lime and crushed stone to the local market. The quarry and plant were taken over by Gypsum, Lime and Alabastine, Canada, Limited in the early 1900's. By the mid-1930's the plant was producing hydrated lime and quicklime, and the waste rock was crushed for road construction and concrete aggregate. The quarry and lime plant was operated for many years, initially by Gypsum, Lime, and Alabastine, Canada, Limited, then by Domtar Chemicals Limited in the early 1960's, and by Guelph Dolime Limited in the mid 1980's. The initial quarry has been expanded considerably, first across the railway tracks, and then across the river. The quarry was inactive at the time the site was visited, and it was partially filled with water. The quarry and surrounding property are currently licenced to Guelph Dolime Limited. The quarry has been excavated into a low escarpment of the Middle Silurian Guelph Formation. The older part of the quarry had exposed up to 28 metres of massive, reefal dolostone of the Middle Silurian Guelph Formation (Hewitt 1960), whereas the newer part of the quarry had exposed about 18 metres of similar dolostone (Hewitt 1964c). Up to 15 metres of dolostone is still exposed above the water level at this site. The dolostones vary from a massive, biohermal facies, to a more evenly, thinner bedded inter-reef facies. The biohermal facies is very fossiliferous with abundant stromatoporoids, bivalves, gastropods, and corals, whereas the inter-reef facies is much less fossiliferous.

The quarry face, reported by Hewitt (1960) to be about 30 metres high, now exposes only about 21 metres of Middle Silurian dolostones because of the growing talus slope at the base of the quarry face. The lower 2.0 metres of the existing exposure of the quarry face consists of shaly dolostones of the Reynales Formation, which is overlain by 18.7 metres of massive dolostones of the Amabel Formation. The irregular, massive character of the Amabel Formation dolostone indicates that these strata are part of the reefal facies of this formation.

The quarry, once known as Maloney Quarry, was originally operated as a source of crushed stone in the late 1800's. The property was then operated until 1935 by Puslinch Quarry Company, Limited who produced crushed dolostone for refractory material, which was used in open-hearth steel furnaces in southern Ontario (Goudge 1938). After 1935 the quarry was used intermittently for crushed stone. The quarry and surrounding property are now owned by Steetley Industries. The strata above the water level consist of massive dolostones of the Middle Silurian Guelph Formation. The fossiliferous, lens-shaped structures exposed in the quarry indicate that these beds are in the reefal facies of the formation.

The quarry face (above the water level) exposes 3.9 metres of dolostone of the Middle Silurian Guelph Formation. Galena and calcite crystals occur within some of the beds in this quarry. The quarry was excavated into the crest of a broad dome-like structure. Goudge (1938, p.298) reported that the floor of the quarry had heaved in several places after the overlying stone had been removed.

The quarry was opened some time before 1887 and closed around 1930. Most of the rock excavated from the quarry was either used for crushed stone or lime by Canada Crushed Stone. The quarry, once extraction ceased, was the site of the processing plant for the new quarry on Highway 5. When the cost of transporting the unprocessed stone from the new quarry became too high, the plant was moved north to the depleted quarry south of the highway. The original quarry then became a landfill site for Steetley Industries, who had taken over the operation from Canada Crushed Stone. The 10.6 metre high quarry face exposes bituminous dolostones of the Eramosa Member of the Middle Silurian Lockport Formation which are overlain by the dolostones of the Guelph Formation. The contact between the two formations is placed where the darker grey, bituminous dolostones of the Eramosa Member are overlain by the brown, massive bedded dolostones of the Guelph Formation. The dolostones of the Lockport Formation contain numerous vugs, most of which are filled by crystals. Minerals identified by Sabina (1986a) include calcite, gypsum, barite, pyrite, galena, sphalerite, and goethite. In addition, chert nodules are scattered throughout the dolostones, as are brachiopods. 7z GEOLOGY UNIT THICKNESS Guelph Formation UNIT 3 2.8 m Dolostone: medium brown, weathers light brown; fine to medium crystalline; thick to massive bedded, with sharp, stylolitic or undulating contacts; small vugs present, commonly with calcite crystals lining the vugs; slightly bituminous in scattered intervals; lower contact of unit sharp and planar.

The quarry was operated for a short time in the early 1900's providing fill for road base on the nearby highway. The quarry, although small, is of considerable geological significance, in that this is one of the very rare localities where the Ordovician - Silurian contact can be observed. This quarry exposes the contact between the dolostones of the Upper Ordovician Georgian Bay Formation and the dolostones of the Lower Silurian Manitoulin Formation. The exact placement of this contact has been debated for over 30 years and while it can be narrowed down to about a 25 centimetre thick interval its exact position has yet to be decided.

The presently operating Woods (Longford) Quarry of Fowler Construction Company, Limited lies immediately to the north of these abandoned quarries. These historically important quarries were once a significant source of building stone. Known by the trade names of "Rama" stone and "Longford" stone, they were used in many buildings throughout Ontario, including the Roman Catholic church in North Bay, a school in Orillia, the post office, library, and churches in Orillia, in the head office of the Imperial Bank at Toronto, and as trim in several post offices in the Toronto area. In addition polished Rama stone was used as interior trim in the post offices at Montreal, Thunder Bay, and Guelph, as well as a number of buildings in Toronto (Parks 1912; Goudge 1938). Miller (1904) also reported that Longford stone was used in the construction of the Queen and King Street subways in Toronto, in the foundations of the Parliament Buildings and [old] city hall in Toronto, in the Hamilton tunnel of the Toronto, Hamilton, and Buffalo Railway, and by the Grand Trunk Railway in bridge construction. Stone not used for building purposes was used as flux in the Midland blast furnace, or it was burned in a lime kiln adjacent to the quarries, producing a white lime (Miller 1904). These quarries, originally operated by hand, were opened in 1883 by individual operators, who consolidated in 1901 to form the Longford Quarry Company, Limited. Until the early 1930's only the Longford stone was quarried, when in 1933 the property was acquired by Lake St. John Quarry Company, Limited, who then in 1936 sold it to Longford Quarries Limited. The company quarried the Rama stone, which was marketed as "Rama Mottled Dove", and shipped most of it to the Toronto It 7 market. The Longford stone was no longer quarried as it was too brittle to be worked by mechanical methods. The quarries had ceased operations some time before 1960. These quarries are now very overgrown, with vegetation obscuring most of the old excavations. Quarries which had been worked below the lake level are also now filled with water. The quarries expose limestones and dolostones of the Middle Ordovician Gull River Formation. The "Rama" stone, from the lower part of the quarries, consists of grey-brown weathering, light grey-brown to light green-brown, fine-crystalline, thick-bedded dolostones and dolomitic limestones of the lower member, Gull River Formation. The "Longford" stone, from the upper part of the quarries, consists of white weathering, very light grey, microcrystalline, thick-bedded limestones of the middle and upper members of the Gull River Formation (as defined by Liberty 1969b). A composite section of these quarries and nearby natural exposures reveals a total thickness of approximately 10 metres (Hewitt 1960, p.39). A detailed description of these strata was presented in the report of the Limestone Industries of Ontario (in prep*), as the same interval is exposed in the Woods Quarry of Fowler Construction Company, Limited (quarry description H-6).

It was operated by Kirkfield Crushed Stone Ltd. until 1963 and produced crushed stone for concrete and asphalt aggregate, agricultural lime and for road construction. It was also used, in part, in the building of the Trent Canal and the lift lock at Kirkfield. The quarry is now mosty water-filled and is a popular swimming hole. This location is geologically significant as it once exposed an excellent section of the uppermost Bobcaygeon Formation and the overlying Verulam Formation. The Bobcaygeon has a distinctive blue-grey colour at this site. Presently, there are about 3 metres of fossiliferous, thin-bedded limestone and interbedded calcareous shale of the Verulam Formation still exposed above the water level. The historical significance of this quarry is reflected in the literature cited below. The thick section exposed in this quarry fueled a lengthy debate on the precise classification of these beds in the stratigraphic succession in central Ontario. The numerous fossils collected from this site (Liberty 1969b lists over 140 different species) further increased the importance of this site to regional biostratigraphic studies.

The quarry covers parts of lots 5 and 6, concession I, Wainfleet Geographic Township, Welland County, in the Municipality of the City of Port Colborne, Regional Municipality of Niagara, and is bisected by a north-south township road (Quarry Road). The western half of the quarry (in lot 6) is partially water-filled, whereas the eastern portion is completely filled with water. This quarry has had a long and varied history. Extraction began in the late 1800's when Reeb and Sons produced lime from the high calcium limestone in 5 kilns beside a small quarry on lot 6. This operation was also known as the Welland Lime Works of Port Colborne. Crushed stone from the quarry was also used in road construction throughout the adjacent area. In the early 1900' s the Canada Cement Company began to extract stone from this quarry to supply its Portland cement plant, located in lot 33, concession I, Humberstone Township, when suitable stone was no longer available from the quarry adjacent to the cement plant (the East Quarry of the Canada Cement Company). The stone was shipped by a private railway to the plant. Shortly thereafter quarrying was also extended into lot 5. By this time the quarry had already reached its maximum depth of 5 to 6.5 metres (15-20 feet). In the 1950's all the high-calcium limestone had been extracted from this site which ended the quarrying at this site. For many years the quarry was kept dry by pumping, but in the early 1980's the pumps were removed and the quarry was allowed to fill. The only dry area is in the northern part of the western portion of the quarry. The limestone beds exposed in the quarry yield diverse and well preserved fossils, which are commonly silicified by chert. The property is currently under the administration of the Niagara Peninsula Conservation Authority. /5~o The quarry exposes up to 6.8 metres of cherty and shaly limestone of the Middle Devonian Edgecliff Member, Onondaga Formation. Large bioherms, mound-like accumulations of coral-dominated fossils, are exposed in the quarry walls. A unique facies of the Edgecliff Member is also exposed in this quarry, a 3 metre thick interval of greenish-grey shaly limestone is well exposed. Fossils found in the quarry include diverse species of rugose and tabulate corals, brachiopods, bryozoans, gastropods, crinoids, fragments of fish, and fragments of the large trilobite "Terataspis" sp.

The plant had been originally opened by the Canadian Portland Cement Company in 1908, but in 1909 this company merged with several other Ontario cement producers to form the Canada Cement Company. Extraction from these quarries ceased in 1925; limestone was then shipped by rail to the plant from newly developed quarries in lots 5-6, Wainfleet Township. The concrete plant itself was closed in the late 1960's. The property around the quarry is now administered by the Niagara Peninsula Conservation Authority.

The quarry is now part of the popular Sherkston Beaches, a family-oriented campground and recreational facility. The quarry was originally operated by the Empire Limestone Company of Scranton, Pennsylvania. Opened in the late 1800's, the quarry supplied large quantities of limestone which was used for flux in the iron and steel plants at Buffalo. Lime was also produced at the quarry, using a natural gas well to fuel the lime kilns. The quarry had ceased operations some time before 1938. According to Goudge (1938, p.284) the quarry was opened in a large lens of almost chert-free, high-calcium limestone. As the quarry continued to expand, chert-rich limestone was encountered in increasing thickness both laterally and at depth, which eventually led to the end of the operations. Thus the rock presently exposed is not typical of the stone which had been quarried for flux and lime. The thickest section currently exposed in the quarry is the vertical face at the northwest corner of the quarry where 7.2 meters of cherty limestone of the Edgecliff Member, Onondaga Formation is exposed.

BENNETT PAVING AND MATERIALS LTD. This partially water-filled quarry is located west of Kingston at the head of Collins Bay on the southern side of Highway 33, in lot 5, concession I, Kingston Geographic Township, Frontenac County. The quarry operated for a short time in the early 1900's, and then was re-opened in the mid 1960's by W.B. Bennett Paving and Materials Limited. The quarry produced crushed stone for road construction and for asphalt aggregate. Operations at the quarry ceased by the mid 1970's. The quarry has two lifts, of which the lower lift is now almost filed with water. Hewitt and Vos (1972, p.14) reported the quarry had reached a total depth of 16 metres (51 feet). When the quarry was visited in 1986, the total exposed section was only 6.5 metres high. The strata exposed in the quarry consist of limestones of the upper member of the Middle Ordovician Gull River Formation, which are overlain by the limestones of the lower member of the Bobcaygeon Formation (as defined by Williams in prep.). Based on the description of the strata in the lower lift presented by Hewitt and Vos (1972, p.14), the contact between the lower and upper members of the Gull River Formation occurs just below the water level.

The quarry operated from the early 1900's (when it was known as the Fair Quarry) to the mid 1960's, producing crushed stone for road construction and for asphalt aggregate. The quarry is currently being developed for commercial properties. The 17 metre deep quarry exposes limestones and dolostones of the Middle Ordovician Gull River Formation. An east-west trending fault can be traced across the quarry. While the displacement across the fault is minor (north side was downdropped about 5 m) a well-developed breccia has formed in the fault zone. The fault apparently splits into two branches on the western face of the quarry. Thin calcite veins, with associated pyrite veinlets, also occur within, and adjacent to, the fault zone. The present condition of the vertical quarry faces inhibits any detailed description of the strata in the quarry. Based on the description presented by Hewitt (1960, p. 68), the strata of this quarry can be assigned to the lower member of the Gull River Formation. Both microcrystalline limestone and fine-crystalline dolostone beds occur in well-defined units in the quarry. Large vugs, filled with white calcite crystals and tabular aggregates of barite occur within some beds (Sabina 1983, p.20).

These quarries supplied building stone for many of the buildings in Owen Sound (including the post office, the hospital, and several churches) in addition to other structures in neighbouring communities. These quarries were known by several names, including: Davis, Smith and Malone Quarry; the Oliver and Webster Quarries (4 quarries all together); the City Quarry; and the Oliver Brown Quarry which was worked for lime. Several of these quarries also produced rubble and crushed stone for construction projects in Owen Sound. Most of these quarries are now so overgrown that they cannot be distinquished from the natural face of the escarpment. A more detailed description of the quarry operations are given in Parks (1912). These quarries commonly extracted thick-bedded dolostones of the Amabel Formation, usually by working the face of the escarpment. The strata are commonly light grey, with bluish streaks, medium-crystalline, medium to thick bedded dolostone. Some beds contain vugs, which may be filled with calcite.

These quarries operated in the early 1900's before houses had encroached into the area. The largest of these quarries, and the most easterly, was operated by the Law Construction Company, after taking over the quarry from the Owen Sound Quarry Company, Limited. The quarry ceased operating in the late 1930's and is now a landfill site. The other quarries were located across the street to the west, and were much smaller, commonly producing crushed stone for road construction. A few of these quarries may still be seen in the parks at this location. Goudge (1938) reported that the Law quarry was over 6 metres deep (19 feet), exposing dark blue-grey, fine-crystalline, thin- to medium bedded, commonly very cherty dolostone of the Lower Silurian Manitoulin Formation. The other quarries were considerably shallower, but exposed similar strata. REFERENCES: Parks 1912, p.261; Williams 1919b, p.99; Goudge 1933, p.226.

This approximately triangular-shaped quarry was water-filled when examined in 1986. The quarry was opened in 1874 for crushed stone which was used as railway ballast. In 1891 the quarry was obtained by J. Ingles who provided crushed stone for road construction and concrete aggregate. Later operating under the name of Hagersville Contracting Company crushed stone was shipped by rail as far west as Windsor. In the early 1900's the Canada Crushed Stone Corporation operated the quarry, excavating the quarry to its current depth of about 10 metres. Crushed stone was the primary product, and it was shipped by rail all over southern Ontario. Quarrying at this site ceased in late 1963 and the quarry was allowed to fill with water. Standard Aggregates now owns the quarry and surrounding property. A section of 6.3 metres of cherty limestone of the Bois Blanc and Onondaga Formations is still exposed above the water level. The geology of this quarry is identical to that in the quarry immediately to the south across the railway tracks (see the detailed description for quarry S-17, Hagersville East Quarry).

This quarry was originally opened in the late 1800's by the Michigan Central Railway to provide ballast for the railway tracks. In the early 1900's additional production of crushed stone for both road construction and concrete aggregate was begun by Hagersville Quarries Limited, who had obtained the quarry by this time. In 1965 Dufferin Materials and Construction Limited (now known as Dufferin Aggregates) acquired this quarry, and the adjacent quarry to the west (S-16). Although there was sporadic quarrying during the 1970's the quarry was inactive and water-filled when visited in 1986. Above the water level 6.8 metres of cherty limestone is exposed. The lower 4.5 metres is assigned to the Lower Devonian Blois Blanc Formation and the overlying 2.3 metres is in the Middle Devonian Onondaga Formation. The Onondaga Formation, unlike in the Niagara District to the east, cannot be subdivided into members because of a gradual change in its character. At the base of the quarry Best (1953, p.73) described over two metres of quartz-rich sandstone and sandy limestone of the Springvale Member of the Bois Blanc Formation, this interval is now below the water level.
