The reports are writtenwithout the benefit of extensive laboratory or officestudies. To improve the qualityof presentation,figures in this year's publication were doneby our draughting section. Thisedition of Geological Fieldworkcontinues with the two- sectionformat adopted in the last volume (GeologicalBranch Paper 1982-1 1. The Project and AppliedGeology sectic'n includesreports of metallic and coalfieldinvestigations, reports of District Geologists, andproperty examinations related to some mineral properties funded inpart by Ministry programs. The OtherInvestigations section consists mainly of reports of work doneby different universities in <cooperation with the Ministry. The cover photograph depicts geologists examining tha discovery outcrops at Granduc. Outputof this publication was coordinatedby A. Panteleyev and W. J. WMillan.Manuscript input was by D.

H8y INTRODUCTION The study of the Purcell Supergroup,initiated in 1977, was intendedto develop a betterunderstanding ofthe stratigraphic, structural and tectonicsetting, and orecontrols of theSullivan and c,ther smal.ter but similar clastic-hostedlead-zinc deposits southeasternin 13ritish Columbia.Kanasewich (1968) recognized a basementstructure from anomalousmagnetic and gravity trends and by deep seismic reflections thatcut northeasterly across the more northerlyregional stratigraphic andstructural trends. He concludedthat the structure was a Precambrian rift and thatthe Sullivan deposit originated within it. The p.coposed riftcoincides with the pronounced St. Mary-BoulderCreek and the Moyie- DibbleCreek fault systems that cut across the Purcell Mountains .and the western ranges of the Rocky buntains(Fig. 2). Lowe'r Pa1eozoi.c (for example, leech,1958) and earlier mdrynian movements, generallyblock- faulting and tilting (Lis and Price, 1976),had been recognized along thesetransverse fault systems, but earlier Eurcell age moverrents 'sad not beendocumented. A primaryobjective of this study was todetermine if thesetransverse structures were activein Purcell time andcould thereforehave controlled theregional distribution le.sd-zincof deposits. t5 *2' ?II Flyre 2. Location map, shailng St. Mary, Boulder Creek, MoyIe, and Dibble G-eek faults, and published geologlcal map5 In the vlclnlty of the Klmber ley mp-erea. 9 The smdyinitially focused on theKootenay Ranges east of the Rocky MountainTrench and results were releasedas two preliminary maps (Hoy, 1979; McMechan, 1979).Locations are given on Figure 2. Dramaticthick- ness increases and rapidfacies changes in theAldridge Formation (near thebase of theexposed Furcell succession) occur in thevicinity of the BoulderCreek fault. The fault is interpretedto havebeen a growth fault whichdown-dropped thearea tothe south (Hoy,1979, 1982a). Furthersouth, McMechan (1979,1981) recognized that overlying Furcell platformalrocks have similar, though less dramatic,changes. These data tendto confirm the presence of a transversePrecambrian rift structure. It was suggested (Hoy, 1982b) thatthis transverse zone is marked in Furcellrocks to the west by thepreferential distribution of intra- formationalconglomerate and mrcell sills. It is alsocharacterized by anomalousconcentrations of boronthat are supposedly related to deep crustalfractures (Ethier andCampbell, 1977). Mappingand detailed sectionmeasurements were subsequently begun in the vicinity of the Moyie faultin the Furcell Mountains (Hoy andDiakow, 1981, 1982). The work continuedthis past summer and was extendednorthward to encompassthe St. Mary fault and the Sbllivan mine at Kimberley.Mapping of the Kimberleymap-area is beingcompiled and will be released as a prelimin- ary map (1 :50 000 scale) when conpleted.Further fieldwork on the Purcellproject will be minimaland will onlyinclude fill-in traverses and sectionmeasurements; these will be completednext field season.

WILLIAMS, Jr., and JANE G. FERRIGNO U.S. GEOLOGICAL SURVEY PROFESSIONAL PAPER 1386–J–1 The Rocky Mountains of Canada include four distinct ranges from the U.S. border to northern British Columbia: Border, Continental, Hart, and Muskwa Ranges. They cover about 170,000 km2, are about 150 km wide, and have an estimated glacierized area of 38,613 km2. Mount Robson, at 3,954 m, is the highest peak. Glaciers range in size from ice fields, with major outlet glaciers, to glacierets. Small mountain-type glaciers in cirques, niches, and ice aprons are scattered throughout the ranges.

Situated in the extreme southwestern corner of the province, this charming area of 220 square miles lies along the eastern slope of the Rocky Mountains where they approach the International Boundary line, and takes the form of a rough square with a long L-shaped section to the east. Its western boundary is formed by the crest of the Rockies which separates Alberta from British Columbia; its northern by the Crowsnest Forest Reserve of Alberta; and its eastern boundary by the undulating prairie land of foot-hill ranches and homesteads. Its southern boundary is the Glacier National Park in Montana, with which it forms the Waterton-Glacier International Peace Park. If there are grander and more imposing parts of the Rockies in Canada, there are few, if any, which give way to Waterton Lakes Park in colourful charm.
