Abstract
Sequence stratigraphy is a useful tool for reducing cost of exploiting Aux Vases Sandstone resources. Sequence stratigraphy can be used in delineating areas best for hydrocarbons and water recovery, highlighting potential problems in quarrying operations, outlining regions where calcareous lithologies of the Aux Vases Sandstone will interfere with Ste. Genevieve Limestone seismic reflection, and creating, in general, a better understanding of depositional systems within a cratonic basin.
