The characteristics and origin of the Hoidas Lake REE Deposit
(2010-01)
The Hoidas Lake Rare Earth Element (REE) Deposit is one of several REE showings which are spatially associated with a regional-scale fault system that cuts through the Rae Province in northern Saskatchewan. The showings ...
Flora of the Ravenscrag Formation of the Big Muddy Valley, Willow Bunch Lake map area (72H), Saskatchewan
(2009)
Paleocene aged beds of the Ravenscrag Formation exposed in the Big Muddy Valley of Southern Saskatchewan produce numerous plant fossils. Studies into these fossils last occurred in the 1930s. Studies into the contemporaneous ...
Depositional dynamics of a giant carbonate platform-the Famennian Palliser Formation of Western Canada
(2003-01-17)
Carbonate platforms dominated by great thicknesses of ostensibly uniform, thick bedded, poorly fossiliferous and burrow-mottled, subtidal limestones are found throughout the Phanerozoic, yet are poorly understood. Deposited ...
Ichnology, Sedimentology and Paleoenvironmental Reconstruction of the Lower Cambrian Addy Quartzite, northeastern Washington State, U.S.A.
(2012-02-23)
The Addy Quartzite is a tide-dominated shallow-marine unit of heterolithic nature found in northeast Washington State. The Addy is Early Cambrian in age and reflects sedimentation during a global transgression along the ...
Sm-Nd and C-isotope chemostratigraphy of Ordovician epeiric sea carbonates, midcontinent of North America
(2004-12-20)
Interpreting and correlating epeiric sea sequences is key to understanding ancient marine environments. As a result, eNd, d13C and Sm/Nd profiles are developed as tools for interpreting epeiric sea carbonates. Previously, ...
Sedimentology, ichnology and sequence stratigraphy of the Lower Cambrian Gog Group, southern Rocky Mountains, Canada
(2010-12-01)
The architecture, distribution and facies of sandstone bodies in the Gog Group of the southern Rocky Mountains of western Canada record the dynamics of sand movement on the broad continental shelf of West Laurentia during ...
Geochemical study of the Mesoproterozoic Belt-Purcell Supergroup, western North America : implications for provenance, weathering and diagenesis
(2005-12-13)
Provenance in the lower Belt-Purcell Supergroup is constrained based on geochemical systematics and chemical monazite ages of argillites and sandstones. Rare earth element (REE), Cr-Ni, and Th/Sc-Sc systematics is equivalent ...
Numerical simulation of brine migration in the vicinity of a potash mine
(1998-01-01)
The development and results of a 3-D site-specific groundwater flow and transport study of the Potash Corporation of Saskatchewan Incorporated Cory Division Potash Mine (PCS Cory Mine) and surrounding area are presented. ...
The Eocene Falkland fossil flora, Okanagan Highlands, British Columbia : paleoclimate and plant community dynamics during the Early Eocene Climatic Optimum
(2011-01)
The fossil flora and depositional setting of the early Eocene Falkland site in the southern interior of British Columbia, Canada is reported here in detail for the first time. Falkland is part of a series of fossil localities ...
Correlated biostratigraphy and palaeoecology of microplankton from the Bearpaw Formation (Campanian-Maastrichtian) of Alberta, Canada
(2007-03-28)
Marine palynomorph assemblages from the Campanian-Maastrichtian Bearpaw Formation, consisting of 34 genera and 69 species of dinoflagellate cysts and 8 forms of acritarchs, were recovered from a composite section in the ...
