Sedimentology, ichnology, and development of a sub-regional depositional and stratigraphic framework for the McMurray-Wabiskaw succession in the MacKay River Area, northeastern Alberta
DownloadFall 2011
The lower Cretaceous McMurray Formation is a prolific bitumen reservoir in the Athabasca Oil Sands deposit of northeastern Alberta. In the MacKay River area northwest of Fort McMurray, the depositional style, stratigraphy, and reservoir character differ from that of the traditional main valley...

Sedimentology, Ichnology, and Palaeodepositional Affinity of the Cretaceous Bluesky Formation, Alberta
DownloadSpring 2016
The lower Cretaceous Bluesky Formation of Alberta comprises marginal marine to marine siliciclastic sediments deposited during transgression of the Boreal Sea. The preserved record of sedimentation represents a complex lateral and vertical architecture, making sub-surface correlation challenging....

Sedimentology, ichnology, and sequence stratigraphy of the Middle-Upper Eocene succession in the Fayum Depression, Egypt
DownloadFall 2009
Middle-Upper Eocene successions were studied in the Fayum Depression in order to establish depositional and paleoenvironmental models that link the ichnological and sedimentologic data to relative sea-level changes in a sequence stratigraphic framework. Five facies associations (FA1- FA5) are...

Sedimentology, stratigraphy, and chronology of the Northwestern Outlet of glacial Lake Agassiz, northeastern Alberta
DownloadFall 2018
Lake Agassiz was dammed on the retreating southern and western margins of the Laurentide Ice Sheet during the end of the last Ice Age. Periodic discharges of freshwater from the lake basin have been implicated in altering oceanic circulation and impacting global climate. Meltwater from a rapid...

Spring 2021
The Upper Devonian Duvernay Formation is an important hydrocarbon source rock in the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin and has been a significant unconventional oil, gas liquids, and gas reservoir since 2011. Heterogeneity in this and other shale reservoirs is important in predicting rock...

Stratigraphic and Structural Relationships in the Foreland Basin and Humber Arm Allochthon on Port au Port Peninsula, western Newfoundland
DownloadFall 2017
Port au Port Peninsula, in western Newfoundland, sits at the western edge of the Appalachian orogen. Middle Ordovician foreland basin strata deposited on the Laurentian margin are primarily derived from, and overridden by, Cambrian to Ordovician deep-water rocks previously mapped as mélange and...

Stratigraphy, petrography and geochemistry of the Bad Heart Formation, Northwestern Alberta
DownloadSpring 2011
Bad Heart Formation oolitic ironstone is the largest resources of iron in western Canada. During this study, 45 new sections from outcrop, trench and drill holes were mapped, and 325 samples were collected for petrographic and geochemical analysis. The objective of the first paper is to refine...

Fall 2019
The Himalayan orogen is segmented along its strike at the scale of hundreds of kilometres. This segmentation is apparent from along-strike changes in earthquake rupture patterns, thickness changes, deformation styles, topographic gradients, thermal evolution, and faults at oblique angles to the...

The depositional framework and stratigraphic architecture of the Lower Triassic Montney Formation, northeastern British Columbia
DownloadFall 2022
The Lower Triassic Montney Formation contains some of the largest unconventional hydrocarbon plays in the world, and over the last decades has become critical to Canada’s main energy resources. These unconventional plays consist mainly of fine- to coarse-grained siltstone beds which are difficult...
