0 The Acton Free Press Wed December 1976 Report recommends Underground aggregate mining afteruse for warehouses offices Underground mining of ag beneath Toronto and in the Niagara Escarpment area combined with the after use of these mines as possible warehouse and office space may be technically and economically feasible according to an engineering study prepared for the Niagara Escarpment Commission and released from the Georgetown office last week Commission Chairman Ivor MeMullin said the Commis ordered the study earlier this year as port of its research in preparing a muster land use plan help maintain the Escarpment area as a continuous natural environment Mr MeMullin said the Escarpment arej currently provides about per cent of Ontario aggregate require ments The Commission he said is looking at alternatives to current surface quarrying activities Our mandate Mr MeMullin said is to preserve the Niagara Escarpment as a continuous natural environment so we are Interested in any feasible alternatives that would avoid disruption of the surface environment The page report prepared by Acres Consulting Services Limited of Niagara Falls Ontario recommends that government and industry select sites on a pilot project basis for more detailed of the combined mining and space utilization concept The report indicates that underground aggretate mining is technically feasible in the Loekport formation which outcrops along the Niagara Escarp ment and in the Gull River formation which outcrops in the Kingston area and runs at a depth of approximately 1220 feet under Toronto With continuing use of conventional surface quarrying for sand gravel and crushed stone the report indicated Central Ontario will remain sufficient in aggregate until about the ear but prices will continue lo rise as near market deposits are depicted The report pointed out that underground mining would currently be only marginally competitive with surface supplies if no value Is placed on the mined out space But us surface supplies are depleted erg round mining will become increasingly com pctitive Although new sources of aggregate could be developed outside of Central Ontario the report said this would result in longer haul distances and ever rising prices for aggregates at the market locations Obituary Summer resident Limehouse area Funeral service was held Friday in Toronto for
