The Sedimentary Environment of the Late Cretaceous St. Mary River Formation, Southwestern Alrerta
(1985-04-15)
It is the purpose of this study to interpret the sedimentary environment which produced the St. Mary River Formation (SMRF) . This study attempts to expand on the preliminary sedimentological work of previous authors py ...
A Seismostratigraphic Analysis of High Resolution Seismic Reflection Data from the Western Grand Banks of Newfoundland
(1985-04-15)
A seismostratigraphic analysis of data from the western Grand Banks of Newfoundland has enabled the definition of seven acoustic units. Units were defined on the basis of high resolution, seismic reflection profiles, airgun ...
Geophysical Analysis of Field and Laboratory Measurements at the Eastville Lead-Zinc Deposit Colchester County, Nova Scotia
(1985-04)
A large part of the mineralization of the Meguma Group is associated with the Goldenville - Halifax Transition. This Transition zone produces geophysical anomalies. Horizontal loop E.M. surveys show a strong conductive ...
The Manganiferous Slates of the Cambro-Ordovician Meguma Group at Lake Charlotte, Halifax County, Nova Scotia.
(1985-04-15)
In recent years there has been considerable interest in manganiferous sediments of the oceans. This interest is due to the special environment required to form manganiferous sediments, the association with other metals, ...
A Quantitative Analysis of Deglaciation as a Possible Earthquake Mechanism in Canada.
(1985-04-15)
With the exception of earthquakes occurring along the Pacific coast, earthquakes in Canada cannot be explained by plate tectonic theory. Deglaciation has been proposed as a possible cause of non-tectonic Canadian ...
Sedimentology of Fluvial Red Beds at Waddens Cove, Cape Breton County, Nova Scotia.
(1985-04-15)
A red bed unit in the Late Pennsylvanian Morien Group at Waddens Cove, Cape Breton County, Nova Scotia, occurs stratigraphically between the fine upper Morien Group and the coarse lower Morien Group. A succession of sandstone ...
The Relationship of Coastal Drumlins to Barrier Beach Formation Along the Eastern Shore of Nova Scotia
(1984-04-15)
The Eastern Shore of Nova Scotia is experiencing post-glacial rise in relative sea level, resulting in a transgressive coastal environment. Drowned estuaries are fronted by eroding drumlin headlands which provide a sediment ...
Upper Paleozoic Alluvial Plain Sedimentation in the Morien Group, Eastern Cape Breton, Nova Scotia
(1984-04-15)
A section of upper Morien strata located near the western margin of the Sydney Basin was examined.
Three sub-assemblages of sedimentary facies were recognized:
Thick bedded sandstone characterized by a fining-up ...
Marsh Foraminiferal Distribution in the Minas Basin and their Occurrence in Marsh Cores from the Region
(1983-04-15)
The foraminiferal assemblages present along two Kingsport marsh surface transects were delineated into zones with respect to vertical elevation above mean sea level (a.m.s.l.), and salinities. The highest vertical zonation, ...
