An urban geology study of the Edmonton area was undertaken by the Alberta Research Council in response to the increasing demand for the geologic information needed to formulate land use plans based...
This study by the Alberta Geological Survey which was funded by the Canada-Alberta Partnership on Minerals, was undertaken in response to the discovery of diamonds in kimberlitic diatribes in the L...
Core from a stratigraphic study drillhole, which was collared adjacent to the K4B kimberlite in the Buffalo Head Hills field of north-central Alberta, was tested by downhole gamma-ray geophysics, w...
This is a step-by-step instruction manual of digital mapping and 3D visualization/modelling of subsurface geology using ESRI ArcGIS software and well log data. ArcGIS makes it possible to derive al...
Shallow gas in drift has recently been exploited from the Rainbow and Sousa Fields of Northwestern Alberta. In response to numerous requests from industry for information about the Quaternary geolo...

The Alberta Geological Survey (AGS) completed the installation of nine piezometers in 2000. The piezometers were completed within both Quaternary drift aquifers and a Quaternary-Tertiary buried cha...
Since the initial discovery of a kimberlitic diatreme in northern Alberta, government and exploration companies have collected a plethora of bedrock, till and stream-sediment heavy-mineral concentr...
A study to evaluate structural controls on the Buffalo Head Hills kimberlites in the Peerless Lake area of north-central Alberta was initiated because of the recognition of a set of north-trending ...
Significant amounts of placer gold, platinum and rare diamonds have been found in gravel deposits on the northern outskirts of Whitecourt, Alberta. These deposits are currently being worked for the...
This map depicts the surficial geology of the NTS map area 83N northeast (point, line and area features) with legend. In addition, it contains base map data. A full size version of this map may be ...
Injection of acid gas in the Peace River Arch area occurs at 11 operations in 3 major stratigraphic units, the Upper Devonian Leduc Formation and Wabamun Group, the Permo-Mississippian Belloy and K...
Injection of acid gas into the Wabamun Group in the Pembina area of west-central Alberta has taken place since 1994. To date, close to 40 million m3, or 60 kt, acid gas have been injected into this...
Injection of acid gas in the Edmonton region takes place at five sites into three different stratigraphic intervals. Acid gas dissolved in water in the Redwater oil field, and the resulting weak ac...
Injection of acid gas in the Provost area in southeastern Alberta takes place at six sites into four different stratigraphic intervals. Acid gas mixed with water is or was injected into Lower Mannv...
