There will be a special session concerning “Structural Controls on
Resources: from Gold to Gas”
at GeoCanada 2000 to be held in Calgary, Canada from May 29 to June 2,
2000. The scope of
the session is given below. We expect to divide the session into
subsessions on hydrocarbons
and metallic deposits, respectively. The abstract deadline is January
7, 2000. Additional
information on the conference, including information on submission of
abstracts, is available at
www.geocanada2000.com. There are many interesting sessions and field
trips.
Session #16: Structural Controls on Resources: from Gold to Gas
Sponsoring Societies:
Geological Association of Canada/Canadian Society of Petroleum
Geologists
Convenors:
Shoufa Lin (University of Waterloo, [log in to unmask])
Alexander Cruden (University of Toronto, [log in to unmask])
Dennis Johnston (PetroCanada Ltd., Calgary, [log in to unmask])
Scope:
Structural geology is important for resource studies because structures
can control the location,
geometry and productivity of both petroleum and metallic resources. This
session will provide a
forum for geologists from industry, academia and government surveys to
discuss the role of
structural geology in resource study and exploration. Emphasis will be
placed on structural
controls on resources, including structural controls on emplacement as
well as structural
modification of the geometry and location of hydrocarbons and metallic
deposits. Both oral and
poster presentations will be considered.
