Collection of Lithologic Strip Logs for Indiana

Dates

Assessment Date

2010

Summary

A lithologic strip log is a long paper board strip that is representative of the well cuttings produced by drilling. This is done by gluing the cuttings at the correct depth on the strip log. The logs are then filed in cabinets by section, township, and range. This extensive collection is unique to the Indiana Geological Survey. The strip can be easily viewed under the microscope. The well cuttings can be pulled to get a better look if greater detail is needed.
