The Maude Group is a geologic group in British Columbia, comprising Lower Jurassic sedimentary strata that overlie Upper Triassic units, which are overlain by Middle–Upper Jurassic volcanic sequences.[1]
The group consists predominantly of sedimentary clastic rocks derived from continental sources, and is further subdivided into formations, including shale-dominated intervals and sandstone units reflecting fluctuations in sea level within a progressively evolving basin.[2]
