Title

UKGEOS Glasgow summary borehole information (Cuningar Loop)

Abstract

This summary borehole information release is for ‘as-built’ mine water and environmental baseline monitoring boreholes of the UK Geoenergy Observatories (UKGEOS) Glasgow facility at Cuningar Loop. The information pack from BGS contains a brief report with summary tables of locations, drilled depths, screened intervals and illustrative interpretations, and is accompanied with a spreadsheet and shapefile of the borehole locations and drilled depths. The purpose is to give potential users of the Glasgow Observatory an outline of the as-built infrastructure including condition of the target mine workings, as a summary of the more detailed information packs for each borehole. This dataset was updated in June 2020. Further details can be found in the accompanying report http://nora.nerc.ac.uk/id/eprint/526889

Lineage

This summary information for the eleven UK Geoenergy Observatories (UKGEOS) Glasgow boreholes at Cuningar Loop has been derived from borehole drilling information and BGS drill-site logs of rock chips. Location and platform height information provided by drilling contractor BAM. More information is available in the accompanying metadata report http://nora.nerc.ac.uk/id/eprint/526889.
