3 Background Devonian Keg River Formation: proposed as disposal zone for process wastewater originating from insitu project historically used as a wastewater disposal zone regional chemistry indicates water saline (>4000 mg/l) local water samples (i.e., swabbed or pumped) returned TDS less than 4000mg/L TDS (DW13-04, 16-21, DW 09-03, DW 04-22) 3 17-Apr-12
4 Objectives Review existing data & reliability (i.e., geology, hydrogeology and hydrochemistry regional and local) Determine natural salinity of Keg River Formation beneath the Lease Provide an explanation for the presence of water in the Keg River Formation that does not appear to be native 4 17-Apr-12

Middle and Lower Devonian Watt Mountain Fm. Slave Point Fort Vermillion Keg River Fm. Contact Rapids Fm. Target Zone Paleozoic Precambrian Granite Wash Fm. Granite
6 Paleogeography of the Keg River Formation Interpretation based on Keg River isochore, well logs, cores, and seismic data Present day depositional thicknesses affected post-depositional dissolution/brecciation Laterally equivalent carbonate build up and progressive/intermittent evaporite basin/sub-basins Dissolution of laterally equivalent evaporites possibly encouraged late stage brecciation and significant thickness reduction 6 17-Apr-12 Source: Client Geoscience Group
