    EARLY HISTORY OF CALGARY Lawrence H. Bussard, B. A. Department of History UNIVERSITY OF ALBERTA A THESIS Submitted to the University of Alberta in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts. Edmonton, Alberta. April, 1935. GOAT OF ARMS OF CALGARY The upper third of the shield shows the Rockies. The lower two-thirds bears the Red Gross of St. George, mounted by the Maple Leaf which again is inset by a Buffalo Bull. The supporters, a Horse and Steer, represent the wealth of Calgary. The Crest shows the Royal Crown (a sign of loyalty), and a Sunburst. Below are the Rose, the Thistle and the Shamrock, declaring the ancestry of Calgary which was founded in 1882, and in 1894 received her City Charter. The motto is "ONWARD," and the Union Jack and Can¬ adian Ensign speak of the Empire.

  • The Dinosaur Park - Bearpaw Formation Transition in the Cypress Hills Region of Southwestern Saskatchewan, Canada Meagan M
    The Dinosaur Park - Bearpaw Formation Transition in the Cypress Hills Region of Southwestern Saskatchewan, Canada Meagan M. Gilbert Department of Geological Sciences, University of Saskatchewan; [email protected] Summary The Upper Cretaceous Dinosaur Park Formation (DPF) is a south- and eastward-thinning fluvial to marginal marine clastic-wedge in the Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin. The DPF is overlain by the Bearpaw Formation (BF), a fully marine clastic succession representing the final major transgression of the epicontinental Western Interior Seaway (WIS) across western North America. In southwestern Saskatchewan, the DPF is comprised of marginal marine coal, carbonaceous shale, and heterolithic siltstone and sandstone grading vertically into marine sandstone and shale of the Bearpaw Formation. Due to Saskatchewan’s proximity to the paleocoastline, 5th order transgressive cycles resulted in the deposition of multiple coal seams (Lethbridge Coal Zone; LCZ) in the upper two-thirds of the DPF in the study area. The estimated total volume of coal is 48109 m3, with a gas potential of 46109 m3 (Frank, 2005). The focus of this study is to characterize the facies and facies associations of the DPF, the newly erected Manâtakâw Member, and the lower BF in the Cypress Hills region of southwestern Saskatchewan utilizing core, outcrop, and geophysical well log data. This study provides a comprehensive sequence stratigraphic overview of the DPF-BF transition in Saskatchewan and the potential for coalbed methane exploration. Introduction The Dinosaur Park and Bearpaw Formations in Alberta, and its equivalents in Montana, have been the focus of several sedimentologic and stratigraphic studies due to exceptional outcrop exposure and extensive subsurface data (e.g., McLean, 1971; Wood, 1985, 1989; Eberth and Hamblin, 1993; Tsujita, 1995; Catuneanu et al., 1997; Hamblin, 1997; Rogers et al., 2016).
