Spring 2018
The northern Appalachian Orogen was built during multiple orogenic episodes resulting from Cambrian through Devonian accretion of microcontinents and/or crustal ribbons to the eastern margin of Laurentia. Orogenic loading formed a foreland basin on the Laurentian craton. Orogen-derived sediments...

Genesis and controls on mineralization at the Hammer Zone silver showing, Mount Mye Trend, hosted by the Anvil Batholith, South-Central Yukon
DownloadFall 2017
When Silver Range resources acquired the Keg property in 2010, one of the prospects included was the Hammer Zone. Ensuing mapping and surface sampling found the Hammer Zone to be a small, bonanza-grade, epithermal silver system contained entirely within the Anvil Batholith. Initial petrographic...

Geology of the Nicola Group in the vicinity of the Iron Mask batholith, Kamloops, British Columbia
DownloadSpring 2010
Two regional scale deformation events are observed in the Kamloops region. A Late Triassic-Early Jurassic southwest directed compressional event and a later Tertiary extensional deformation episode, manifested in the uplift of the Nicola horst. The Nicola horst is bounded to the northeast by the...

Geology, Geochemistry, Geochronology, and economic potential of the Taftan volcanic complex, southeastern Iran
DownloadFall 2015
Razavi Khosroshahi, Seyed Amir Mohammad
The late Miocene-Quaternary Taftan volcanic complex is located above the Makran subduction zone in Sistan and Baluchestan province of southeastern Iran. The earliest volcanic eruptions at Taftan started in the late Miocene (~8 Ma) by explosive eruption of andesitic to dacitic lava on the...

Geothermal Reservoir Characterization of the South Swan Hills Oil Pool, Swan Hills, Alberta
DownloadSpring 2022
Research in the South Swan Hills oil pool was performed to accurately delineate the geometry of the subsurface reservoir and subsequently quantify the amount of thermal energy that can be extracted for geothermal use from the reservoir water volume. South Swan Hills is an active oilfield...

Hydrogen as a fuel has the potential to reduce tailpipe carbon dioxide emissions of vehicles to near-zero, while also allowing for the generation of a hydrogen-based economy and lowering humanity's dependence upon oil. Hydrogen-diesel dual fuel combustion, where hydrogen and diesel are combusted...

The Bakken Formation is the most productive formation in the Williston Basin and one of the most important tight oil plays in North America. Oil in the Bakken Formation has been shown to migrate from the mature, central portion of the Williston Basin outwards towards the less mature portions of...

Understanding factors affecting elemental carbon stocks on Alberta’s grasslands is of special importance with recent policy shifts focusing on climate change and carbon (C) emissions. A large part of Alberta is native prairie utilized by the beef industry. This study examined soil and vegetation...

Implications of in situ zircon U-Pb, Lu-Hf, oxygen-isotope, and trace element geochemistry on the petrogenetic history of the northern Hogem batholith in the Quesnel terrane, north-central British Columbia, Canadian Cordillera
DownloadSpring 2022
The Cordilleran orogen of western Canada is a type example of accretionary tectonism and thus an ideal location to study continental growth by oceanic and continental arc magmatism and terrane accretion. Cordilleran Intermontane terranes are interpreted as accreted oceanic arcs that contributed...

Indicators of gold mineralization in the Yellowknife greenstone belt: a lithogeochemistry and mineralogy study
DownloadSpring 2021
Geochemical signatures within an economic deposit are an important indicator used in the exploration of high-grade mineralization. In this study, we aim to identify elements that can act as geochemical indicators for orogenic gold within the Yellowknife greenstone belt that allow the...
