The Bighorn Basin preserves an unusually complete
stratigraphic record of early Paleogene time (~65-50 Ma). The Bighorn
Basin Coring Project (BBCP) aims to drill a series of cores in the basin
to better document the interplay between climatic, biotic, and geologic
change during this period of global greenhouse conditions.
Phase I
of the BBCP was a NSF supported workshop that took place in Powell,
Wyoming from June 24 - June 27, 2007. The workshop determined the
scientific, administrative, and logistic framework of the BBCP. We are
currently drafting a formal drilling prospectus. See the links at the
left for details on the workshop.
