EXPERIMENTAL EVALUATION OF SUBAQUEOUS DISPOSAL OF ACID GENERATING SULPHIDE MINERALS IN THE MEGUMA SUPERGROUP, SOUTHERN NOV A SCOTIA
(1999-04-15)
Development and construction projects that require the disturbance and excavation of
sulphide rich bedrock in Halifax and southern Nova Scotia produce large quantities of waste rock
material. This material poses a high ...
RECONSTRUCTION OF POLLUTION HISTORY AT MILL COVE, BEDFORD BASIN USING BENTHIC FORAMINIFERA
(1999-04-15)
The comparison of data from two cores collected in Bedford Basin, adjacent to the Mill
Cove Sewage Treatment Plant, in August 1998, to data from 1968, 1993 and 1996, allows
the impact of pollution to be determined. Benthic ...
VELOCITY STRUCTURE OF A METHANE HYDRATE STABILITY ZONE, OFFSHORE VANCOUVER ISLAND
(1998-04-15)
The occurrence of methane hydrates within marine sediments of the accretionary prism of
the Cascadia Margin, offshore Vancouver Island has been inferred by the occurrence of a
bottom simulating reflector (BSR), which is ...
Morphological Changes in Chezzetcook Inlet: An Historical Study Using Air Photography Composites
(1999-04-15)
This thesis provides an analysis of the sedimentological and morphological changes
observed in Chezzetcook Inlet from 1766 to 1998 using air photograph composites and
maps from 1766 and 1854.This study explores the ...
Cambrian Multichambered Foraminifera from the Halifax and Goldenville Groups of the Meguma Supergroup, Nova Scotia
(1998-04-15)
Foraminifera in the Cambrian are rare; only ten genera have been recorded and these
were all simple tubular and branching unilocular forms found in West Africa. The
discovery of an organic lens within the Goldenville ...
CHARACTERIZATION OF SEISMIC AMPLITUDE ANOMALIES AT HIBERNIA USING 3D SEISMIC DATA
(1998-04-15)
The Chevron et al. Hibernia P-15 well penetrated one of many bright spots
and encountered gas. Bright spots are one of four 'direct hydrocarbon indicators' and
result from the high acoustic impedance contrast from gas ...
SEDIMENTOLOGY, FACIES SUCCESSIONS AND CYCLICITY OF A SECTION OF THE JOGGJNS FORMATION, JOGGINS, NOV A SCOTIA
(1998-04-15)
The Joggins cliffs near Amherst, Nova Scotia, form one of the world's premiere Carboniferous
coal-bearing exposures. A 145 m section was measured in the vicinity of Bell's Brook. The
section is classified into three ...
THE JOGGINS AND SPRINGHILL MINES FORMATIONS FACIES MODEL AND INTERPRETATION OF THE PALED-ENVIRONMENT
(1998-04-15)
The type section of the Joggins Formation is located along the eastern shore of Chignecto Bay,
Nova Scotia. A bed-by-bed measurement of the Carboniferous strata within a 200m stratigraphic
zone encompassing the Joggins ...
ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS OF THE OLD DUNBRACK MINE DUMP, MUSQUODOBOIT HARBOUR, NOV A SCOTIA
(1998-04-15)
The Dunbrack Pb-Cu-Zn prospect, located 5 km north of Musquodoboit Harbour and 45
km east ofHalifax, Nova Scotia, ceased operations in 1920. The Devonian
Musquodoboit Batholith hosts the minerals in a ca. 300 Ma quartz ...
URANIUM, RADIUM, AND RADON IN STREAMS, DOMESTIC WELL WATERS, AND SOILS: A GIS ANALYSIS OF GEOLOGICAL, GEOCHEMICAL, AND GEOPHYSICAL RELATIONSHIPS
(1999-04-15)
Elevated levels of 238Uranium (U) and its daughter products 226Radium (Ra) and 222Radon (Rn) in groundwater, surface water, and soils have the potential of posing health risks. In particular, high levels of radioactive ...
