Book The Geology  Mineral and Hydrocarbon Potential of Northern Yukon Territory and Northwestern District of Mackenzie

Download or read book The Geology Mineral and Hydrocarbon Potential of Northern Yukon Territory and Northwestern District of Mackenzie written by Donald Kring Norris and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Describes the regional geology of the northern Yukon and north-western District of Mackenzie, based on original field work in the early 1960s and updated in light of more recent detailed investigations. After introductory chapters on the original reconnaissance survey, the physiographic setting of the study area, and the geological setting (tectonics, seismicity, tectonostratigraphic sequences), subsequent chapters describe the geology (including stratigraphy, paleontology, paleogeography, lithology, and tectonics, as applicable) of individual geological eras or periods from the Proterozoic to Tertiary. The following chapters cover the geology of the Beaufort Sea continental shelf; the White, Barn, and Campbell uplifts; the petrology of the northern Yukon intrusive suite; and the mineral and hydrocarbon potential of the study area. Includes a catalogue of stratigraphic sections and an index.

Book Lower Paleozoic Stratigraphy of Northern Yukon Territory and Northwestern District of Mackenzie

Download or read book Lower Paleozoic Stratigraphy of Northern Yukon Territory and Northwestern District of Mackenzie written by D. W. Morrow and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Previous studies of the lower Palaeozoic in the Eagle Plain & Richardson Mountain area of north-west mainland Canada in the Yukon & Northwest Territories have dealt either with outcrop or surface sections, or with subsurface well sections, but did not integrate these data. This has led to the development of inconsistent stratigraphic nomenclatures and an inability to form a consistent sequence stratigraphic model for the lower Palaeozoic in this area. This bulletin presents a stratigraphic synthesis based on data from surface exposures in the mountains surrounding Eagle Plain and on subsurface borehole data from beneath Eagle Plain and from the interior plain bordering the east flank of the Richardson Mountains. An internally consistent stratigraphic framework is developed, including reaffirmation of some previous nomenclature, restriction to certain areas of others, and definition of new stratigraphic units. The positions of carbonate-to-shale transitions which commonly exert a strong control on structural evolution and on the occurrence of sedimentary mineral deposits & hydrocarbons are more accurately delineated. A detailed sedimentological analysis of the Ogilvie Formation, the most prospective lower Palaeozoic unit for the occurrence of hydrocarbon reservoirs, is also included, along with a map of thermal maturity at the top of the unit.

Book Permian and Triassic Stratigraphy of Mackenzie Delta  and the British  Barn  and Richardson Mountains  Yukon and Northwest Territories

Download or read book Permian and Triassic Stratigraphy of Mackenzie Delta and the British Barn and Richardson Mountains Yukon and Northwest Territories written by James Dixon and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The area covered in this study extends from the northwesternmost part of Yukon eastward into the Richardson Mountains and under the Mackenzie Delta. The investigation aims to expand on previous stratigraphic studies and proposes formal nomenclature for unnamed parts of the Permian succession in the area. Information is provided on the Permian and Triassic stratigraphy and lithology of the area. Correlations between the various occurrences in the study area are attempted as well as more regional correlations with Permian and Triassic strata in the Yukon, mainland Northwest Territories, and adjacent Alaska. Paleogeographic reconstructions and the economic potential of Permian and Triassic strata in the study area are also discussed.

Book The Sedimentary Basins of the United States and Canada

Download or read book The Sedimentary Basins of the United States and Canada written by Andrew Miall and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2008-12-03 with total page 626 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years there have been rapid strides in our understanding of plate-tectonic processes, many developments in methods of basin analysis, and the accumulation of much new surface and subsurface geological and geophysical data. Projects such as COCORP (in the United States) and Lithoprobe (in Canada) have provided essential insights into the deep crustal structure of the continent. Synthesis of all the available information about North America’s geological regions has not been attempted systematically since the “Decade of North American Geology project undertaken by the Geological Society of America and the Geological Survey of Canada nearly twenty years ago. The book commences with a summary of the Phanerozoic geological history of the United States and Canada, illustrated with a suite of new paleogeographic maps, and tying in each of the subsequent regional chapters by the inclusion of numerous cross-references. This followed by a set of fifteen regional syntheses of the principal tectonic regions of the United States and Canada, focusing on the stratigraphic and tectonic history of the major sedimentary basins. Most of these chapters have been contributed by specialists, drawing on their own research, and providing interpretive summaries of a type not previously attempted.
