Supplemental Information

The digital dataset has gone through several phases of development and is the result of the amalgamation of several databases in 1998. The Date of creation given is the first date recorded in the database and is the date a pre-existing database was created. Data content varies from record to record. As borehole drilling is an ongoing activity, the database contains only a subset of all potential data. Logically consistent, according to allowable differences of coding detail.
