  • Junior a Tigers Beef up Blue Line with Offseason Deals
    This page was exported from - The Auroran Export date: Wed Sep 29 1:36:44 2021 / +0000 GMT Junior A Tigers beef up blue line with offseason deals By Jake Courtepatte The junior hockey roster carousel keeps spinning, and with it comes a new set of faces to defend the Aurora Tigers' blue line. The Junior A club announced late last month the acquisition of defenceman Samuel Duchesne to the 2018-19 roster, a signing owner Jim Thomson said GM Dermot Anderson told him was a ?special? one. The latest in a long line of ex-major junior players signed by Thomson in the past two seasons, Duchesne's resume is a healthy one: the six-foot-two Brampton native cracked an OHL roster at just sixteen years of age in 2015, suiting up for the Flint Firebirds of Michigan. He spent two full seasons with the Firebirds before being shipped off to the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League's Saint John Sea Dogs before the start of last season, bouncing around to the Chicoutimi Sagueneens of the same league before landing with Aurora. Anderson said he looks forward to watching Ducesne ?patrol the d-core.? The addition of Duchesne is just the latest in a series of offseason moves by Thomson and staff to add experience to the Tigers' back end, acquiring 19-year old defenseman Noah Tooke from the Central Canadian Hockey League's Carleton Place Canadians last month. The six-foot-two blue liner from London brings three full seasons of junior hockey experience to the Tigers, including playing at almost a point-per-game pace with the Canadians in 2017-18.

    Swan Hills, AB Swan Hills is the nearest settlement to the geographical Centre of Alberta, with a population of 1,301. A mere 30 km outside of the town site, along highway 33 is a short trail that leads to a cairn marking the Center of Alberta. Swan Hills is nestled among virgin boreal and sub-forest; a combination made possible by the high elevation of the area, and one which provides Swan Hills with a rich legacy of rare flora and fauna not found anywhere else in the province. This legacy has been preserved at the Goose Mountain Ecological Reserve located outside the town boundaries.

  • Oil Charge Migration in the Peace River Oil Sands and Surrounding
    Oil Charge Migration in the Peace River Oil Sands and Surrounding Region Jennifer Adams1*, Steve Larter1, Barry Bennett1, Haiping Huang1 1PRG, Department of Geosciences, University of Calgary, Calgary, Alberta, T2N 1N4, Canada *now at ConocoPhillips, 600 N Dairy Ashford, Houston, TX, 77041, USA; [email protected] Summary The oil source and alteration history of the Lower Cretaceous and underlying Mesozoic and Late Paleozoic reservoired oil fields of north-central Alberta (Peace River Arch area) were investigated using a very large database of public and in-house data, to produce the first high resolution model of oil- charge systematics for the oil sands. Bulk chemistry and stable isotopic analysis of oils, in combination with quantitative analysis of biodegradation resistant saturated and aromatic hydrocarbon molecular indicators of the Peace River oil-sands bitumen and surrounding oils revealed oil-charge from the Jurassic Gordondale (oil Family Z) in the west along the Montney and Gething formations, mixing with vertically migrated oil-charge from the Exshaw Formation east of the Debolt anhydrite facies pinch out. Most likely there is no significant Gordondale source contribution to the Exshaw source dominated Athabasca, Cold Lake and Lloydminster accumulations. The precursor oils to the Peace River, Athabasca, Buffalo Head Hills and Wabasca oil sands were the earliest expelled, lowest maturity petroleum from these source-rocks, with API gravities in the 20’s and with high initial viscosities. The complex vertical and lateral heterogeneity of fluid properties reflect variations in oil-charge maturity, migration pathways, and varying levels of biodegradation, conditioned by highly variable oil charging which explains why parts of the Peace River oil-sands fields are able to be cold produced whereas the dominantly Exshaw sourced oils are too highly degraded for cold production.
