Book excerpt: This is a discount Black and white version. Some images may be unclear, please see BCCampus website for the digital version.This book was born out of a 2014 meeting of earth science educators representing most of the universities and colleges in British Columbia, and nurtured by a widely shared frustration that many students are not thriving in courses because textbooks have become too expensive for them to buy. But the real inspiration comes from a fascination for the spectacular geology of western Canada and the many decades that the author spent exploring this region along with colleagues, students, family, and friends. My goal has been to provide an accessible and comprehensive guide to the important topics of geology, richly illustrated with examples from western Canada. Although this text is intended to complement a typical first-year course in physical geology, its contents could be applied to numerous other related courses.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book tells the story of the province’s geology and the history of its living creatures. The first edition of Geology of British Columbia,, with its accessible but rigorous science, struck a chord with readers. Since it was first published, theories about plate tectonics and the geological history of British Columbia have evolved, and this new edition reflects the current thinking. This book also features updated content throughout, seven new maps, and a number of new photographs. A brand new appendix lists and describes key geological sites in British Columbia, adding a field-guide component to this informative book that will engage readers and compel them to go see these rocks for themselves.

This book was released on 1967 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The area studied in this report covers the valley of the Pine River in the Peace River district of north-east British Columbia. Introductory sections review the area's geography, physiography, and glacial geology. This is followed by description of the lithology & stratigraphy of the Middle Triassic to Upper Cretaceous strata found in the area. The stratigraphy is treated in two parts: an account of the outcrops, and an account of the drilled sections in the subsurface. This is followed by a chapter on structural geology of the outer & inner foothills, the Commotion Structure (or Boulder Creek Dome) in the outer foothills, folds & faults, and tectonics. The final chapter discusses the potential of the area for oil & gas deposits, summarizes investigations of seven exploratory wells, and briefly reviews the area's coal reserves. Appendices include an analysis of parallel fold forms found in the valley, an examination & interpretation of the Peace River structures of the outer foothills, descriptions of drill cores & cuttings, and an index.
