Book Description
Over the last forty years much has been published on the sedimentary geology of Great Bear River area. The discoveries of oil in the Devonian reef at Norman Wells and in cambrian sands at Tedji Lake have attested to the area's hydrocarbon potential. Surface mapping and local studies have revealed rock sequences and crustal structures of great potential value to our understanding of global geology. The aim of this report is to assist evaluation of the economic potential and to improve the interpretation of the geological history. Based o n subsurface data, the stratigraphy and structure of the area and analyzed in detail and are illustrated on a series of maps and cross-sections, and nomenclature is reviewed and integrated regionally with that of adjacent areas.

Book Description
"This report deals with the subsurface stratigraphy of the Mackenzie River region between 64 degrees north latitude and the Arctic coast, and between the Canadian Shield and the west border of Yukon Territory. The study is based on the examination of well samples, cores, and mechanical logs of all important exploratory wells drilled prior to March, 1961, and on published information to that date. References are made to surface geology and paleontology, and to published stratigraphic concepts in order to substantiate the suggested nomenclature and stratigraphy. Several informal lithologic units and one new formation are introduced. The economic potential of each formation is examined." --

Book Description
Previous studies of the lower Palaeozoic in the Eagle Plain & Richardson Mountain area of north-west mainland Canada in the Yukon & Northwest Territories have dealt either with outcrop or surface sections, or with subsurface well sections, but did not integrate these data. This has led to the development of inconsistent stratigraphic nomenclatures and an inability to form a consistent sequence stratigraphic model for the lower Palaeozoic in this area. This bulletin presents a stratigraphic synthesis based on data from surface exposures in the mountains surrounding Eagle Plain and on subsurface borehole data from beneath Eagle Plain and from the interior plain bordering the east flank of the Richardson Mountains. An internally consistent stratigraphic framework is developed, including reaffirmation of some previous nomenclature, restriction to certain areas of others, and definition of new stratigraphic units. The positions of carbonate-to-shale transitions which commonly exert a strong control on structural evolution and on the occurrence of sedimentary mineral deposits & hydrocarbons are more accurately delineated. A detailed sedimentological analysis of the Ogilvie Formation, the most prospective lower Palaeozoic unit for the occurrence of hydrocarbon reservoirs, is also included, along with a map of thermal maturity at the top of the unit.
