Bedrock geology, Aubry Lake, Northwest Territories / author, K.M. Fallas.: M183-1/310-2017E-PDF
"The Aubry Lake map area (NTS 96-M) lies within the Colville Hills region of the Northwest Territories. Sparse bedrock exposures in the area include carbonate and siliciclastic strata ranging from Cambrian to Cretaceous. These strata were deformed in the Cretaceous to Eocene by folding and contractional faulting associated with Cordilleran deformation. Divergent structural trends are interpreted to be inherited from Proterozoic structures in the subsurface. A major unconformity between Devonian and Cretaceous strata is marked by tilted Paleozoic strata beneath the Cretaceous. Natural gas has been reported from petroleum exploration wells drilled into Mount Clark Formation (Cambrian) sandstone"--Abstract.
