Cambrian biostratigraphy in the Mackenzie Mountains, NWT
Principal Investigator: Butterfield, Nicholas J
Licensed Year(s): 2010
Summary: The primary objective of this study is to document the sequence of trilobite occurrences in the Mount Cap Formation, and to apply this to the developing international scheme for correlating Cambrian rocks. The importance of the Mount Cap fossils lies in the identification of a key trilobite species that has not previously been reported from North America. The research plan is to collect fossils ...


Collaborative Research: A Sequence, Chemo- and Biostratigraphic Study of Late Early Cambrian Rocks, Southern Selwyn Basin, Mackenzie Mountains, NWT
Principal Investigator: Pope, Michael
Licensed Year(s): 2003 2002 2001
Summary: The Early Cambrian is an important time in Earth history for it records the widespread radiation of animals during significant climatic, sea level, and tectonic changes. This project will be a stratigraphic, geochemical, and paleontological study of high...


Trilobite biostratigraphy of the Middle Cambrian Rockslide Formation (southern Mackenzie Mountains)
Principal Investigator: Pratt, Brian R.
Licensed Year(s): 2012 2002 2000 1998
Summary: We will study rocks in the Backbone Ranges of the Mackenzie Mountains, chartering a helicopter from Watson Lake to install and move light-weight camps and bring back samples. The strata of interest are exposed on mountainsides and brick-sized samples will be collected at measured intervals, labelled and placed in plastic sample bags. Enclosed fossils are recovered after preparation in the laborat...
