  • Controls on Organic-Rich Mudstone Deposition: the Devonian Duvernay Formation, Alberta, Canada
    Controls on organic-rich mudstone deposition: The Devonian Duvernay Formation, Alberta, Canada by Levi J. Knapp A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences University of Alberta © Levi J. Knapp, 2016 Abstract: The Upper Devonian Duvernay Formation of Western Canada is a prolific source rock that in recent years has become an exploration target for shale gas and liquids. Development of the Duvernay Formation has demonstrated the importance of robust models for rock properties such as porosity, permeability, organic richness, and fracturability. Depositional processes and conditions govern the character and distribution of mudstone lithofacies, which are directly linked to variations in rock properties. The depositional and sequence stratigraphic models presented here are based on a detailed sedimentology and stratigraphy study. Twelve lithofacies were characterized based on lithology, sedimentary and biogenic structures, fossil type and abundance, and type and abundance of cement. Significant variation exists between organic-rich lithofacies, indicating that organic-rich mudstones were deposited in variably energetic and oxygenated environments, rather than within persistently anoxic, stagnant bottom waters. Correlation of core descriptions to a network of 759 wells with wireline logs led to the creation of a basin-scale sequence stratigraphic framework with 3 third order sequences. The sequence stratigraphic model shows a strong sea level and basin morphology control on basinal lithofacies. Transgression, and subsequent highstand normal regression in sequence 1 (oldest) resulted in significant platform construction in the northeast side of the basin. Sediments become consistently finer-grained and organic-rich away from the platform.

  • Structural Geology of the Southern Livingstone Range
    Meteoric fluid isotopic signatures of thrust-fault-related veins in the Livingstone Range anticlinorium and their significance for syn-deformational regional fluid migration Michael A. Cooley*, Raymond A. Price, John M. Dixon, and T. Kurtis Kyser Department of Geological Sciences and Geological Engineering Queen’s University, Kingston, Kingston, ON, K7L 3N6 [email protected] ABSTRACT δ13C and δ18O isotope values of calcite in veins and host rocks from thrust fault zones indicate that fluids with meteoric isotopic signatures were present along thrust faults and infiltrating the tip-lines of minor thrusts during the formation of fault-propagation folds in the Livingstone Range Anticlinorium of southwest Alberta. Isotope geochemistry of cross-fault veins indicates that formation fluids predominated within the transverse structures, implying that cross faults were not conduits for local downward infiltration of meteoric water. Meteoric fluids must have been flowing eastward along the major thrust faults from a recharge area in the topographically higher hinterland to the west during formation of the thrust and fold belt. The incursion of meteoric waters coincided with hydrocarbon migration as indicated by hydrocarbon residues within thrust- fault-related calcite veins. Introduction The Livingstone Range of the southern Alberta foothills comprises the easternmost surface exposures of Carboniferous rocks in the southern Canadian Cordillera (Fig. 1). The Livingstone Range is an anticlinorium that developed where the Livingstone thrust cuts up-section in its hanging wall from a regional detachment in the upper Palliser Formation, through the overlying Mississippian Rundle Group and younger strata to an upper detachment within the Jurassic Fernie Formation. The anticlinorium comprises two to three adjacent fault- propagation fold anticlines which contain thrust faults that die out upwards into the cores of the folds.

  • Cadomin and Jasper Areas Willem Langenberg and John Waldron
    Field Guide to Selected Geological Sections of the Cadomin and Jasper Areas Willem Langenberg and John Waldron Edmonton Geological Society Field Trip Guide September 22-23, 2007 Introduction The Rocky Mountains can be divided into Foothills, Front Ranges, and Main Ranges as shown in the cartoon below (Fig. 1). Outcrops in the foothills are dominated by softer weathering Mesozoic rocks of the foreland basin: mainly sandstone and shale but also including conglomerates and coal. Most of the clastic rocks represent material eroded from earlier-formed parts of the orogen to the west, which was subsequently cannibalized as the thrustbelt advanced westward in late Mesozoic to early Cenozoic time. Locally in the foothills, the more resistant late Paleozoic carbonate rocks come to the surface in elongated ridges. Saturday's traverse will begin in the foothills of the Cadomin area and proceed southwest into the Front Ranges. In the Front Ranges carbonates dominate the landscape. These represent the late Paleozoic continental margin of the Laurentian continent, now sliced into multiple imbricated thrust sheets. Mesozoic clastics are confined to narrow valleys. On Sunday morning we will take the Yellowhead Highway further into the Front Ranges and eventually into the Main Ranges of the Rockies. In the Main Ranges, lower parts of the stratigraphy are preserved, including widespread outcrops of older, Early Paleozoic carbonates, clastics, and the underlying Proterozoic succession of the Windermere Supergroup. The structural style is different, too. Although thrust sheets are present, they are generally much larger in scale, and their dips are gentler. In addition, the rocks were more ductile when deformed, so that cleavage and folds are much more widely developed in the mudrocks.

Improve system design and economic modeling accuracy. Methodology Track individual module performance on as many of the most common installation angles as is possible. Roof pitches of 3/12, 4/12, 6/12 and 12/12 as well as ground installations based on site latitude and wall mounting at 90O were chosen. Study the impact of snow on overall performance for a term of, not less than, five years. Make findings available to any and all interested parties. Design Pairs of Conergy P-230PA solar modules with Enphase M215 microinverters are mounted at 14O, 18O, 27O, 45O, 53O (Edmonton) 55O (Grande Prairie) and 90O. One side or column acts as an unmaintained control while the other column has the snow removed for comparison. Aside from cloud cover the solar array is continuously shade free. Azimuth or facing direction is optimized for Canada, due south. Energy generated is delivered directly to the electrical grid.

Annual NMGS Fall Field Conference Guidebooks Every fall since 1950, the New Mexico Geological Society (NMGS) has held an annual Fall Field Conference that explores some region of New Mexico (or surrounding states). Always well attended, these conferences provide a guidebook to participants. Besides detailed road logs, the guidebooks contain many well written, edited, and peer-reviewed geoscience papers. These books have set the national standard for geologic guidebooks and are an essential geologic reference for anyone working in or around New Mexico. Free Downloads NMGS has decided to make peer-reviewed papers from our Fall Field Conference guidebooks available for free download. Non-members will have access to guidebook papers two years after publication. Members have access to all papers. This is in keeping with our mission of promoting interest, research, and cooperation regarding geology in New Mexico. However, guidebook sales represent a significant proportion of our operating budget. Therefore, only research papers are available for download. Road logs, mini-papers, maps, stratigraphic charts, and other selected content are available only in the printed guidebooks.
