—(a) Reflectance data for Lower Cretaceous Cadomin Formation, Upper Jurassic-Lower Cretaceous Minnes Group and Jurassic Fernie Formation. (A), (B), and (C) denote locations where vitrinite reflectances were found to be depressed (Kalkreuth, 1982). See Figure 2 for location identification. (b) Reflectance data for Triassic, Carboniferous, and Devonian samples. Rrandom reflectances can be converted to Rmax using the equation: Rmax% = 1.12 Rrandom% – 0.05 (Weiss, 1985).

Spatial extent of lithostratigraphic units defined by Stott (1998) and corresponding type sections in the foothills are shown. Inset map of Canada with study area location included. (B) Detailed study area map with wells used for mapping; locations of core and subcrop edges of the three Monteith Formation units are indicated.

Regional dip oriented gamma radiation log cross-section (B–B′) featuring the stratigraphic correlation scheme adapted in this study indicated by solid lines, as well as previous stratigraphic picks from Stott (1998) and Legun (1988), indicated by bars adjacent to gamma radiation curves. Progressive downcutting and erosion of the Minnes Group associated with the sub-Cadomin unconformity in northeast British Columbia was substantial. The differential application of stratigraphic picks by Stott (1998) in 07-12-077-25W6 in part, caused miscorrelation of units into the Alberta subsurface; note the very limited spatial extent of the Bickford, Monach and Beattie Peaks formations. The section location is shown in Figure 2A.

—Palinspastically-restored section AA′, BB′, and CC′ extending from Paleozoic exposures in the west, across the Foothills, into the adjacent undeformed strata, and longitudinal section DD′ across the Peace River Valley showing thickness of stratigraphic units and estimated maximum paleoground surface. Datum line is top of Bluesky-Gething Formation (stippled areas). Also shown are estimated positions of 1.3% Rmax (end of oil generation), 2.2% Rmax (upper limit of wet-gas preservation), and 4.8% Rmax (upper limit of dry-gas preservation). Upper limit of light-oil (API 50°) preservation (~2.0% Rmax) occurs approximately 200 m (656 ft) above the 2.2% Rmax isoreflectance line. Arrows indicate control points for reflectance values. Numbers in brackets refer to localities shown on Figure 2. Locations of oil pools (o) and gas fields (g) indicated by horizontal bars (from Wallace-Dudley, 1982a, b).
