چکیده
This papaer reports on mapping in a portion of NTS 94G/4W (Mt. McCusker west half), conducted during the month of July 1998 (Figure 1). This area, only accessible by air, lies 80 kilometres due west of the small settlement of Pink Mountain, 151 kilometres north of Fort St. John on Highway 97. The mapping program is part of the Central Foreland NATMAP Project, led by Mike Cecile of the Geological Survey of Canada (G.S.C.). The program objectives are to update the geology of the area, tie in with ongoing G.S.C. mapping to the north and east, and complement the Robb Lake mineral deposit study of JoAnne Nelson (Nelson et al. this volume. The G.S.C. offered considerable helicopter support

Using Steerable Filters to Map Geological Features from HRAM Data of the Foothills of Northeastern British Columbia, Canada
In the last decade several techniques have been developed to enhance geophysical data in order to extract subtle features that reflect the structural geology of the area. These techniques include curvelet, ridglet and wavelet analysis. Although these techniques provide a powerful tool in extracting linear features from geophysical data, they lack the power to resolve curvilinear or circular fea...
