  Description:
    Abstract:
      Abstract:
      The Mount Merrill map area is situated at the southern end of the Franklin
      Mountains in a foothills physiographic setting.  The geology of the area is
      characterized by sedimentary strata of Late Devonian to Early Cretaceous age,
      exposed in a series of asymmetrical box or kink folds whose geometry is
      controlled largely by the competence of the Carboniferous Mattson Formation.
      West-verging folds are locally cut by west-verging thrust faults of minor
      displacement.  Interference of differing fold trends creates local culminations
      within the map area and introduces an en echelon offset of structures at the
      regional scale.  The Beavercrow, Merrill and Babiche anticlines form one such en
      echelon set.  Stratigraphic refinements include the local recognition of the
      informal Tika formation above the Mattson Formation and the assignment of
      Triassic strata to the Grayling and Toad formations.  The Lower Cretaceous
      Chinkeh Formation found on adjacent map areas is inferred to be present at the
      base of the Garbutt Formation but was not directly observed within the Mount
      Merrill area.
