2013 Summary:
The objective of this project is to identify a vertebrate fossil of Carboniferous age recently found in the Golata Formation in the Liard Basin.
The research group is studying outcrops of Devonian to Carboniferous age shale to establish the hydrocarbon resource potential for the NWT, BC, and Yukon regions of the Liard area. Scientific investigations include measuring rock outcrop sections and t...
