Download or read book Upper Paleozoic Stratigraphy of the Eagle Plain Basin Yukon Territory written by H. L. Martin and published by . This book was released on 1972 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Upper Paleozoic strata in the southern part of the Eagle Plain Basin are termed the Imperial Formation of Late Devonian age, the unnamed shale unit of Devonian and Mississippian age, and the Hart River Formation of Late Mississippian (Chesteran) age. The latter is formally subdivided into the Birch, Canoe River, and Chance Sandstone Members. Both the Birch and Chance Sandstone Members are reservoir rocks where oil and gas have been discovered in commercial quantities. The hydrocarbons are present in non-argillaceous, conglomeratic sandstone whereas the intervening Canoe River Member is a siliceous shale in the southeast grading to a siliceous limestone in the central and western parts of the basin. The strata are believed to have been deposited in a deep water trough subparallel to the present-day Richardson Mountains which form the eastern border of the basin; turbidite flows are considered to be responsible for the formation of the conglomeratic sandstone.

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.

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 62 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.
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.
