Geological and geochemical data from the Canadian Arctic islands. Part XV, Basal strata of Devonian clastic wedge on Banks Island and correlation with mainland Northwest Territories / P. Kabanov.: M183-2/8354E-PDF
"The Ellesmerian foreland basin encroached onto present-day Banks Island by the Early-Middle Devonian boundary and depressed Blue Fiord carbonate shelf into the starved foredeep. From mid-Devonian onward, the foredeep filled with thick turbiditic to floodplain siliciclastics known as the Devonian clastic wedge. Stratigraphy of foredeep strata and adjoining units remained unsettled since 1970s. This study revises nomenclature and proposes correlation with coeval strata of the N.W.T. mainland"--Summary, p. 1.
