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, ...
Geologic, Fluid Inclusion and Stable Isotope Study of a Carbonate-Hosted Lead Deposit at Pembroke (Glenbervie), Colchester County, Nova Scotia
(1983-04-15)
The Pembroke (also Glenbervie) prospect is a carbonate-hosted lead deposit located at 45o17'05" North Latitude and 62o56'15" West Longitude in Colchester County, Nova Scotia. The deposit is stratabound within the Macdonald ...
The Origin and Occurrence of Cordierite in the South Mountain Batholith
(1984-04-15)
Cordierite occurs on both sides of the contact between the South Mountain batholith and the Meguma metasediments, in southwestern Nova Scotia. Textural features of the cordierites in the batholith, the xenoliths, the Meguma ...
The Mineralogy of the Fifteen Mile Stream Gold District
(1983-04-15)
Comparison of two distinct tailings piles from two separate periods of operations, reveals that they are similar in mineralogy and lithology. The proportions in which the minerals and lithic fragments are present, differs ...
The Sedimentology of Glaciofluvial Deposits Near Upper Nine Mile River, Nova Scotia
(1984-04-15)
Four sand and gravel pits east of Upper Nine Mile River expose parts of a 25 km long ridge of unconsolidated glaciofluvial sediment. Twenty five (25) stratigraphic sections were measured along fresh exposures in the ...
Arcellaceans in Eastern Canada: Selected Biostratigraphic and Biological Studies
(1984-04-15)
Arcellaceans (testate rhizopods) are considered as part of the artificial group known as "thecamoebians". Arcellaceans exist in all modern freshwater environments, and they have been found to have value as indicators of ...
Infraspecific Variation in Arcellacea (Thecamoebians) from Eastern Canada and a Selected Biostratigraphic Study
(1984-04-15)
Clones of several morphotypes of the arcellacean species Centropyxis aculeata (Ehrenberg) were established and the range of variation in individual clones was examined. Considerable morphological variation was noted, ...
