This report is a data release of bulk and clay mineralogy, permeametry, mercury porosimetry, helium pycnometry and scanning electron microscope imaging of selected samples from the Montney Formation for the Alberta Geological Survey project on shale gas resources in Alberta.

We also took a few samples in adjoining formations, such as the Nordegg, Belloy and Doig. This data release complements our other shale gas reports and data.
