...John Lawrence Brandt Cretaceous sediments from the Colorado Group of the Patience Lake potash shaft near Saskatoon are mostly silty clays containing a low proportion of sand. Microscopic examination of the sand fraction reveals that most commonly it is composed of quartz and feldspar, with some...

...E. A. Christiansen Abstract Pleistocene deposits in the Saskatoon area are divided into the Sutherland and Saskatoon groups. The Sutherland Group is divided into the Mennon, Dundurn, and Warman formations, and the Saskatoon Group is divided into the Floral and Battleford formations. The Floral...

...E. A. Christiansen Abstract Pleistocene sediments in the Saskatoon area are subdivided into the Sutherland and Saskatoon Groups on the basis of dolomite content of tills. The Sutherland Group generally comprises one till, but locally it comprises a lower and upper till. The overlying Saskatoon...

... of the Montana Group; the Early and Middle Pleistocene Mennon, Dundurn, and Warman formations of the Sutherland Group; and the Late Pleistocene Floral, Battleford, and Haultain formations of the Saskatoon Group. Locally, the collapse is about 180 m, which is about equal to the thickness of the salt. The first...

A structural closure of 125–175 m approximates the thickness of the Middle Devonian Prairie Evaporite Formation. In the Early...

...E. A. Christiansen Abstract The Fort Qu'Appelle vertebrate fossil locality is in the Echo Lake Gravel, which lies between tills of the Sutherland and Saskatoon Groups. Biostratigraphers have indicated that the Echo Lake Gravel is either a Sangamonian deposit or a Wisconsin an interstadial deposit...

The reversed preglacial sequence is referred to the Matuyama Zone (Late Pliocene to Early Pleistocene: 2.58-0.78 Ma) and the normal glacial sequence to the Brunhes Zone (Middle to Late Pleistocene...

...E. A. Christiansen Abstract A structural depression herein called the "Saskatoon. Low" is apparent on structural maps drawn on the top of the Lea Park Formation–Upper Colorado Group, on the bedrock surface, and on the uppermost till surface. The structure was probably formed by collapse as a result...
