The eroded material from the Canadian Shield was primarily deposited in surrounding areas, including sedimentary basins such as those found in the Great Lakes region and the Hudson Bay. Over geological time, sediments were transported by rivers and glaciers, accumulating in low-lying areas. Some materials also contributed to the formation of sedimentary rock layers in adjacent regions, such as the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin.
