How parcels are matched
1. Rights. The parcel's rights, as worded in the Crown's offering notice, include the Exshaw. Rights descriptions are placed on the Crown's stratigraphic zone order (each notice lists a depth code for the zones it names), so “below the base of the Doig to basement” includes the Montney while “surface to the top of the Montney” does not, and “excepting” lines are removed.
2. Area. The parcel touches the Alberta Geological Survey's evaluated area for the Exshaw (AER/AGS Digital Dataset 2013-0024), shown as the solid outline on the map below.
The Crown codes this interval as the Lower Banff-Exshaw; the AGS area is its evaluated Basal Banff/Exshaw study area in southern Alberta.
Most Crown parcels are sold “surface to basement”, so these are parcels that convey Exshaw rights, not necessarily parcels bought for the Exshaw.
