...François Therrien; Darla K. Zelenitsky; Annie Quinney; Kohei Tanaka Abstract Dinosaur tracksites recently discovered in exposures of the Belly River Group in the Milk River Natural Area (MRNA) and Dinosaur Provincial Park (DPP) of southern Alberta represent a novel type of ichnofossils. The tracks...

... in this volume helps detail the spectrum of gas accumulations that exist in fine-grained low-permeability rocks. Attention to the Milk River gas system is clearly warranted because of the more than 2 tcf (>57 billion m 3 ) of natural gas produced from it ( Shurr and Ridgley, 2002 ) in a broad area...

... interesting concepts. For example, a regional low-permeability gas system can be viewed as a source rock undergoing primary migration. Gas generation may be thermal or biogenic. Therefore, this four-stage process would also apply to the shallow biogenic gasifers in the Milk River and Horseshoe Canyon...
