on account OF high combining pres
sures. Decrease OF pressure due
to fracturing and faulting might
change these hydrocarbons TO a
gaseous state. Contact with OBJ
structions or battles" such as sur
face drift, might cause some Of the
heavier constituents TO be knocked
OUT of the gas by & mechanical
process similar 10 that employed
in oil and gas separators. If this
is the explanation the principles OF
the carbon-ratio theory need not be
employed TO explain the difference
in character Of the oil in the Cam
eron Brook-Sage Greek seepages.
CONCLUSIONS
In the light Of present knOwl-
edge regarding the occurrences OF
oil and gas In western Canada, the
oil seepages in the pre-Cambrian
rocks Of the Lewis and Clarke
ranges may have their origin in
upper Paleozoic (Devonian or Car
ooniferous), JuI0ssic, or in part in
Colorado shale source beds. Upper
raleozoic porous limestones or do
lCmites may be the reservoir rock
or may have acted as carrier
beds. Migration from these beds
to the surface may have occurred
faults or fractures within the pre-
CamDrian rocks. These faults and
fractures seem 10 be the determin-
ing structural condition. The dark
er color of the Cambrian Brook
seepages may be caused by a low
