Compendium summarizing information on the distribution, geological context, estimated quantities, and characteristics of Canadian coals. Information was compiled from published and unpublished records of the Geological Survey of Canada, provincial governments, and coal companies. Data is included to the beginning of 1988 and is broken down into regional areas.
"Long-term projections indicate that coal demand will increase dramatically within the next 20 years placing pressure on finding, developing and financing new supplies. This report on the location, quantity and quality of Canada's coal resources and reserves is intended to provide basic information to a diverse audience including producers, consumers, transporters, investors, energy planners, governments and the general public. An accurate assessment of coal resources and reserves is an essential step towards using coal effectively to help supply Canada's future energy requirements and those of offshore markets."--Preface (page iii).
The early chapters of the volume present data and interpretations of the geophysics of the craton and summarise, with sequential maps, the tectonic evolution of the craton. The main body of the text and accompanying plates and figures present the stratigraphy, structural history, and economic geology of specific sedimentary basins and regions. The volume concludes with a summary chapter in which the currently popular theories of cratonal tectonics are discussed and the unresolved questions are identified.
