Feb 28, 2017 (A Wilson) - Marl in the north part of Louise Lake is of good quality, but the reserves are small. A 10 foot section analysed 87.3% CaCO3, 32% MgCO3, 0.11% Fe2O3 and 0.64% insoluble. The dry powder is buff in colour and of moderate brightness. The crude marl is 68.6% water; one cubic yard of the crude contains 525 pounds of dry marl.
