Abstract

This is the first stand-alone, updated, and seamless geological compilation map for the Alberta portion of the Rocky Mountains and Foothills. This 1:500 000 scale bedrock geology map compiles data from about 70 maps published at different scales by different generations of geologists over the last century. Data compilation was complemented by extensive field work and selected geochronological studies.
