...Prem Srivastava; C. W. Stearn; E. W. Mountjoy ABSTRACT A bed of megabreccia at the base of the Mount Hawk Formation at Mount Haultain, Jasper National Park, was mapped in detail along 780 ft of its length. It consists of disoriented blocks up to 125 ft across derived from the margin of the Ancient...

... allodapic sands and silts that ex - tend beyond the channel limits (Fig . 4) . These allodapic sands may in some way be related to the deposition of the coarser material in th e channels . The two best examples, similar in scale and features, occur in the Perdrix Formation at Mount Haultain and at Marmot...

...Eric W. Mountjoy; Robert K. Jull Abstract The upper Peechee Member of the Ancient Wall reef complex that is well exposed on the southeast margin of Mount Haultain represents the end of the first main depositional cycle of this complex. The uppermost part forms a 15–30 m thick carbonate sequence...

... of the Alberta subsurface, and the Kakisa Limestone of the Great Slave Lake region ( Fig. 3, no. 19 ). Stearn (1961) included this interval in the lower Alexo Formation and in 1975 identified it at Mount Haultain as the Arcs Member of the Southesk Formation. In the Rocky Mountains the unit records the first...

.... O. trepta) is the defining species for the base of Zone 7, and was also used to define the base of Alberta Zone 3 (Klapper and Lane, 1989), resulting in a direct correlation. The species first appears in the Perdrix Formation at both Luscar Mountain and Mount Haultain. All zones from Zone 8 through...

... difficult to recognize in the basin sediments. It occurs somewhere within the basal 30 to 50 m of the Mount Hawk Formation at Mount Haultain. Elsewhere it presumably occurs at about the same stratigraphic position in the western part of the Alberta Basin, except where there are abundant fore-reef sediments...

... of the Flume Formation (latest Givetian to earliest Frasnian). The Flume platform overlies a relatively flat pre-Devonian surface and represents an overall deepening-upward sequence. Local evidence suggests that depositionally produced relief ( i.e. , stacked biostromes) within the Flume, played a fundamental...

... formally proposed on the evidence of sequences in many areas including the Montagne Noire, Moroccan Meseta, and the Canning Basin ( Girard et al., 2006 ). Within the Canning Basin, the succession in the Virgin Hills Formation at Horse Spring in the Horse Spring Range displays all Frasnian zones from...

... coincides with a local hiatus in deposition below the Big Valley Formation. The absence of the zones in southern Alberta may be due to nondeposition and/or unfavourable environments of deposition. Both the Big Valley and Exshaw formations include conodonts of the Famennian Lower expansa Zone. RÉSUMÉ Les...

...N.C. Meijer Drees; D.I. Johnston; M.G. Fowler ABSTRACT The Graminia Formation of the Upper Devonian Winterburn Group is widely distributed in the subsurface of central Alberta. It includes a lower Blue Ridge Member and an upper “Graminia Silt” member. The carbonates of the Blue Ridge Member overlie...

Criteria indicating proximity to similar subsurface buildups include recognition of the foreslope facies, increasing carbonate content of basin formations and thickness relationships.

... and paleogeographic maps. Carbonate deposition began with the flooding of the West Alberta Arch and the deposition of the upper Swan Hills Formation during the Lower asymmetrica Zone. Transgression in the Middle asymmetrica Zone initiated the basinal Cline Channel and Duvernay Formation shale deposition, while...

...-collisional stage, D P5, produced north- to northwest-trending sinistral faults, including the Tabbernor fault system. Extension and tectonic extrusion during D P4 and D P5 were significant and resulted in orogenic collapse and formation of the Athabasca Basin at ca. 1750–1680 Ma. 2 Lithoprobe...

The strata between the base of the Givetian Gilwood Formation (Elk Point Group) and the top of the Blue Ridge Member (Graminia Formation) are interpreted as a second-order depositional sequence. These strata...
