...E. Karl Sauer; E. A. Christiansen Abstract Soft, surficial, unoxidized till of the Battleford Formation overlies hard, oxidized and unoxidized till of the Floral Formation. The difference in hardness between these two formations is the result of preconsolidation pressures that range from 1500...

...E. A. Christiansen Abstract A thin till, commonly 1 to 10 ft thick, forms the uppermost till in an area of more than 20 000 square miles in west-central Saskatchewan. The till, named herein the Battleford Formation, is gray to light olive-gray in contrast to the underlying pale olive and pale...

... Kansan, Yarmouth, or early Illinioan age.Wascana Creek Ash and its host clay occupy an intertill position; they rest directly on sandy till, interpreted as part of the Floral Formation, and are covered by till of the Battleford Formation. Thus, the Floral Formation in Saskatchewan may well be as old...

A 300-ft-thick interval of silty and sandy shale in the Milk River Formation has been known to contain gas for some time, but, because of its low...
