Synopsis

This publication is the culmination of years of work by nearly 200 authors/contributors, drawn from industry, government and academia. The printed Atlas volume contains 35 chapters and over 500 pages with the material in three broad categories:

1. cross-basin "stratigraphic slices" embracing the whole of the Proterozoic-Phanerzoic succession
2. "tectonic domain" chapters, dealing (vertically) with the geological history of discrete tectonic elements within the basin; and
3. "theme" chapters, outlining modern thinking on the geological process that gave rise to the strata and their contained resources.

Published jointly by the CSPG and the Alberta Research Council, this publication is a must for anyone working in the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin or as an analogy for other foreland basins.
