| Abstract | Five Devonian sections are described based on fieldwork in the northern part of the Mackenzie Mountains and Franklin Mountains by A.E.H. Pedder, T.T. Uyeno and W.S. MacKenzie in the early 1970's. The
descriptions provide detailed information about the lithology and fossil content of Hume River section, Gayna River Gorge section, Powell Creek tributary section, Powell Creek (main) section and Prohibition Creek section. |
