... introduces a new member, the Gordondale Member, for highly radioactive, fine-grained strata previously referred to as either the lower Fernie Formation, the Lower Fernie shelf limestone and clastics, the Nordegg Member, or the “Nordegg Member”. A new occurrence of a late Toarcian ammonite, which constrains...

.... The complexities observed are a result of three intra-Charlie Lake unconformity surfaces, identified as the Coplin, Boundary, and Worsley and by post-Triassic erosion at the base of the Jurassic Nordegg Formation. These unconformity surfaces bound four depositional sequences, the Lower Charlie Lake, Boundary...

—Schematic west-east cross section through the study area. A major unconformity is present between the Shunda (Mississippian) and Nordegg (Sinemurian) formations; however, the deepest incisions occurred at an unconformity representing a much shorter time duration in the Early Jurassic following deposition of the Nordegg Formation.

—Cross sections showing the lithology of Mississippian formations in the Medicine River field. Location of cross sections is given in Figure 3. Major unconformities occur between Mississippian (Banff-Pekisko-Shunda) and Lower Jurassic (Nordegg) formations, and between Nordegg and overlying Jurassic–Lower Cretaceous formations. G = gamma ray log, S = sonic log, D = density log, N = neutron log.

Back-projection of the points enclosed by the polygons picked on the (a) κρ versus µρ and (b) κρ versus Eρ crossplots. Because of better separation of clusters in the κρ versus Eρ crossplot space, their highlighted projections exhibit more resolution and clarity. Notice that the upper and lower parts of the Montney Formation are distinguishable in (b). The Ferni and Nordegg Formations also show variation within their own zones.

(a) Uninterpreted and (b) interpreted 2D seismic profile across a structural corridor linked to the southern bounding fault (SBF) of the FSJG (Wozniakowska et al., 2021). Some faults terminate up‐dip into the cores of folds. Dashed lines show inferred faults with ambiguous or variable offset, likely reflecting periods of reverse activation of normal faults. As shown schematically in Figure 2, the edge of the FSJG is better described as a structural corridor than a single discrete fault. B, Bluesky formation (Cretaceous); D, Debolt formation (Carboniferous); N, Nordegg formation (Jurassic); S, Stoddart Group (Late Carboniferous). Note thickening of stratigraphic units toward the northeast going into the graben. Image courtesy of Pulse Seismic Inc. The color version of this figure is available only in the electronic edition.

... sulfides were incorporated into the kerogen. This process resulted in the early diagenetic formation of the sulfur-rich kerogen (Type I/II-S) that typifies the "Nordegg". Thus Fe availability in the depositional environment exerted an important control on the amount of S available for incorporation...
