Abstract
Relation of Laramide Movements to the Cretaceous and Tertiary Sediments of Western Canada
ABSTRACT
All coarse Upper Cretaceous clastics as well as ash beds in the southwest portion of the Western Canada sedimentary basin are related to tectonic pulses of the Laramide orogeny to the west. The record suggests that these pulses were closer together and more severe as time went on, culminating in the Cretaceous-Tertiary period of folding and overthrusting with which are associated the great floods of coarse sediments that were carried eastward on to the Plains.
