Rationale – Why Howley?

• A few sniffs!– Hatch’s (1925) sampling and analyzing of  bituminous shale beds in the 

region indicated that the Grand Lake (Rocky Brook?) samples had the highest calculated oil yields (Hyde et al., 1994)

• Outcrops now underwater?   

– Langdon (1993) geochemically correlated bitumen found in core of the Howley Formation to the Rocky Brook Formation

• Remains of migrated oil? 

– Presence of coal in outcrop in the Howley Formation  (e.g., CoalBrook)

• Strike‐slip basins– Fast, deep subsidence 

– Accumulation of organic material in stratified lacustrine environment

Future Work

• Process gravity data– Complete bathymetry map

– Terrain corrections

– Forward modeling

• Integrate geophysics with structural analysis– Forward or inverse modeling of the Howley Topsails contact for 

orientation of the Grand Lake Fault

– Seismic and magnetotellurics delineate structures in the center of the basin

• Kinematic and tectonic models
