A Study of Sulfide Mineralization in the Meguma Group Sediments Gold Brook, Colchester County, Nova Scotia.
(1982-03-15)A preliminary study of representative drill core from the Gold Brook property (of Sulpetro Minerals Limited), Colchester County, Nova Scotia was undertaken, to describe the styles of strata-bound and vein-type mineralization ... -
A Study of the Rare Earth Element Geochemistry and Mineral Chemistry of the Anorthosites and Related Rocks near Pleasant Bay, Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia
(1979-03-15)The anorthosites and related rocks of this study are located about 5 kilometres east of the village of Pleasant Bay, Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia. The anorthosites outcrop as a thin (~900m), northeast-trending lens with ... -
A Study of the Silica-Undersaturated Alkaline Rocks of the Laacher Sea Area, East Eifel Volcanic Field, West Germany
(1983-03-15)The generation of alkaline rocks is a complex process. The East Eifel volcanic field in West Germany represents the most alkalic rocks in the alkaline province of Central Europe and France. The area of particular interest, ... -
Subsidence of the Scotian Basin: A Theoretical Model
(1978-03-15)The development of a continental margin basin such as the Scotian Basin depends on various factors, exponential thermal contraction, sedimentary loading and the physical properties of the lithosphere underlying the ... -
A Subsidence, Compaction, Pressure, Temperature, and Maturity History of the Hibernia B-08 Well, Grand Banks, Newfoundland
(1992-04-15)The Jeanne d'Arc basin is one of several of Late Triassic basins in Atlantic Canada, some of which contain significant quantities of hydrocarbons. The Jeanne d'Arc basin has extensive overpressuring associated with the ... -
Surveying vernal pools in Halifax County, Nova Scotia to identify landscape correlates of pool features and pilot a survey methodology
(2014-03)Vernal pools are small, ephemeral wetlands that provide critical breeding habitat for amphibian populations, increase biodiversity on a landscape scale, and influence local and regional hydrography. They have unique ... -
Telling the North American beaver tale: modelling Castor canadensis distribution in Mi'kma'ki (Nova Scotia, Canada)
(2023-04)The American beaver (Castor canadensis) is a keystone species of both significant ecological and biocultural importance in Mi'kma'ki (Nova Scotia). In North America, several environmental covariates are known to influence ... -

Thermobarometry of Eclogite from the Nordøyane Ultra-High Pressure Domain, Western Gneiss Region, Norway
(2020-04-15)Partial melting of subducted continental crust at ultra-high pressure (UHP) conditions may facilitate the exhumation of large UHP terranes like the Western Gneiss Region (WGR), Norway. During the Scandian phase of the ... -
Thermobarometry of Meta-Sedimentary Enclaves in the Ten Mile Lake Intrusion, Liscomb, Nova Scotia
(1990-04-15)A section of a drill core from the area of the Ten Mile Lake, Liscomb Complex, Nova Scotia, contains many small metasedimentary enclaves in a felsic host. The enclaves investigated are calc-silicate and metapelites and ...
