Origin of the Albert Mines oil shale (New Brunswick) and its associated albertite / Lewis H. King, Fuels and Mining Practice Division.: M38-1/115-1963E-PDF

"The Albert Mines oil shale is part of the Albert formation of the Moncton basin of New Brunswick, and is of Mississippian age. The deposit is a varved dolomitic, organic marlstone, and is probably of planktonic algal origin. It bears a striking resemblance to certain facies of the Green River formation. The oil shale is associated with the type vein of albertite, and the unique occurrence is considered as evidence that the albertite had its origin in the organic matter of the shale"--Abstract.
