An investigative exploratory boring through the Quaternary deposits was made at Tofthög in southern Scania in 1964. The thickness of the soil-cover is 110.2 m. The underlying Cretaceous limestone was reached 95 m below sea-level. Most of the penetrated strata were taken up as cores with a diameter of 100 mm. By studying carbonate content, rock-fragment distribution, etc., it has been possible to establish a detailed section through the Quaternary deposits. Among other things, three different till beds were found, the lowest one unique in the area and therefore considered to be of high age.
