This book was released on 1972 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The six formations detailed on the preliminary geological map of Anticosti Island, Quebec, represent an uninterrupted sequence of nearly flat-lying rocks of Upper Ordovician to Middle Silurian ages. The Upper Ordovician strata, divisible into two formations, Vaureal and Ellis Bay, are persistent, alternating calcareous and argillaceous units, each bearing distinct marine faunal assemblages. These rocks occupy the northwestern one-third of the island. The succeeding Lower and Middle Silurian strata of the Becscie, Gun River and Jupiter Formations are more variable lithological units, the uppermost Chicotte Formation, occurring only along the southern coast of the island, being everywhere a massive, cronoidal limestone. These Silurian formations, of Llandoverian and early Wenlockian ages (Alexandrian and early Niagaran), are highly fossiliferous and divisible into several tentative faunal units. Characteristic fossils from each of the six formations are illustrated in a preliminary fashion and grouped by formation.

This book was released on 1983 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The results of this study allow more precise correlations to be made with the classic Lower Silurian rocks of the Welsh Borderland in Great Britain, and will also facilitate making closer correlations between strata of this age in other sedimentary basins in Canada and elsewhere. Accurate dating of rocks is of great importance in assessing the hydrocarbon and other mineral potential of sedimentary basins." --

This book was released on 1990 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The lower and middle Paleozoic strata of the eastern Arctic Archipelago change rapidly laterally from thin, shallow-water platform deposits to thicker, deeper water basinal deposits. The difficulty in correlating such strata has been overcome in part through well controlled conodont zonation, and by supplementary dating using palynomorphs and megafaunas. Such precise dating and correlation are essential for success in the search for petroleum and other mineral deposits. The study will also help refine calibration of the geological time scale in other parts of the world." --

Nowlan and published by Geological Survey of Canada. This book was released on 1988 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The taxonomic work provides detailed descriptions and illustrations of almost fifty species belonging to twenty-three genera. One new genus and five new species are erected. The resulting taxonomic framework is used to provide a correlation with strata of this age in other sedimentary basins in Canada and elsewhere.

This book was released on 1991 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This compilation is a synthesis of Ordovician-Triassic conodont research undertaken in the Canadian Cordillera during the past decade. The studies include an overview of the record in Western Canada; a review of the paleontology; and descriptions of conodonts from the Cordillera Road River group in northern Yukon Territory, from the eastern and northern Canadian cordillera, of the Palliser Formation in the Rocky Mountains, and from the Cache Creek Complex in south-central B.C.

This book was released on 1980 with total page 664 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Conodonts have been recovered from two sections through the Cambrian-Ordovician boundary beds of the upper Rabbitkettle Formation, near the headwaters of the Broken Skull River, western Mackenzie Mountains. This report contributes towards a biofacies evaluation of Cambrian-Ordovician boundary bed conodonts and illustrates the probable limitations on a highly resolved conodont-based correlation of this interval between strongly constrasting lithofacies.
