Lithologic and borehole geophysical data, Green Swamp area, Florida
Open-File Report
78-574
Prepared in cooperation with Southwest Florida Water Management District
By: Hayes F. Grubb, John W. Chappelear, and James A. Miller
Continuous unconsolidated cores were obtained at 74 sites in the Green Swamp are to evaluate the potential for downward leakage to the Floridian aquifer. Depth of the core holes ranged from 21 to 227 feet and averaged about 87 feet., Lithology was determined by microscopic examination of the core from each hole. Geophysical logs were obtained from 59 of the 74 core holes. This report presents the detailed lithologic and geophysical data for these core holes.
