Scope and preliminary results of radiolarian biostratigraphic studies, Fort Fraser and Prince George map areas, central British Columbia

View through CrossRef
As part of the new Nechako NATMAP project, radiolarian biostratigraphic investigations started in the Fort Fraser (93K) and Prince George (93G) map areas in central British Columbia. Their scope is to provide control on the age and structures of the Cache Creek Group and related units. Eighty samples of radiolarian chert, siliceous mudstone, and chert clasts have been collected. Preliminary chemical processing confirms radiolarians from ribbon chert strata near Fort St. James, and undated siliceous mudstone of the Sowchea sequence. Six chert pebbles from a Cretaceous conglomerate near Pinchi Lake released well preserved associations ranging in age from Middle Triassic (late Anisian-Ladinian) to Late Triassic (late Carnian, early-middle Norian, late Norian/Rhaetian). Similar associations are known within the Cache Creek Group in southern British Columbia and Yukon Territory.

<p>熱蘭遮堡可謂台灣荷治時期(1624-1662)最重要的建築,自1624年荷蘭東印度公司來台設立據點,至其於1662年撤離,該堡壘持續在軍事、貿易與治理方面扮演關鍵角色。由於其重要性,過去已有不少學者進行該堡壘之考證與研究,並嘗試重建其原貌,但至今尚未有學者提出完整與可信的重建成果。筆者先前〈17世紀荷治福爾摩沙的熱蘭遮堡:其建築營造歷程及與...
