Structure of the Brule-Crossing Creek Area, British Columbia [Abstract]

H. R. Hovdebo

Rapid evaluation of areas containing possible oil and gas accumulations in the Rocky Mountains is necessary before detailed work should be considered. The use of vertical aerial photographs, low angle oblique photographs, and photogeology in combination with control traversing and reconnaissance flying provides a rapid method of geological evaluation. The validity of this method is shown by the results obtained in a survey of the Brule-Crossing Creek Area, Britsh Columbia. The geology of this area consists in general of Paleozoic strata which are folded into asymmetrical and easterly overturned foldS that in places are dissected by westward dipping thrust faults.

This thesis describes in some detail the methods used in conducting a rapid structural survey of the above area and also presents an account of the data obtained.
