INTRODUCTION

Results from over 3600 Rock-Eval/TOC analyses are provided for Paleozoic rock samples that originate from either 66 petroleum exploration wells or from outcrop locations in southern and eastern Quebec. Each sample is assigned to a stratigraphic unit.

The Geological Survey of Canada is undertaking an update of the geological and geochemical datasets for the area. This includes Rock Eval data. Formation descriptions are available from the Lexicon of Canadian Geological Names (http://gdr.nrcan.gc.ca/index_e.php). These include age and lithological information, as well as the location of the type section and references.
