The Eagle Plain basin, having proven hydrocarbon potential, is a relatively underexplored intermontane basin located in northern Yukon . Previous studies of the middle Albian-Cenomanian Parkin Formation and the Turonian Fishing Branch Formation are based on broad lithostratigraphic correlations. The primary goal of the study is to refine the sequence stratigraphic framework of the middle to Upper Cretaceous succession based on sedimentological observations. New findings from this study require subdivision of the stratigraphic nomenclature by defining new informal lithological members. Facies transitions, paleoflow indicators and isopach maps indicate overall westward deepening of the basin. Large-scale, sand-prone mass transport deposits observed in the upper part of the lower Parkin shale member in western Eagle Plain indicate the presence of shelf-to-basin floor relief of at least 100 m. Recognition of significant shelf-to-basin floor topography greatly increases the potential for hydrocarbon reservoirs (gas-dominated) in stratigraphic traps associated with the shelf edge.
