The Chemical Composition of Granite-Related and Mineralization-Related Tourmaline in Nova Scotia
(1987-04-15)
Tourmaline is a common accessory mineral which occurs in a wide variety of mineralogical settings. This mineral is commonly found in sedimentary, metamorphic, and granitoid intrusive rocks and their associated aplites, ...
A Geophysical Study of the Liscomb Satellite Pluton
(1989-04-15)
The Liscomb Satellite Pluton is located to the north of the Main Liscomb Complex in central Nova Scotia. Because of the limited amount of outcrop the boundaries of the pluton have yet to be accurately determined through ...
Identification of the Carrier of Magnetization in a Basalt Core from Bermuda
(1987-04-15)
Peckenham (1981) attempted to use the magnetic properties of a basalt core from Bermuda to help him define the stratigraphy of basalt flows present in the core. The results of his investigation were not helpful. Magnetic ...
Regional Mapping and Petrographic Study of a Silurian Gneissic Complex, Belle Cote Road, Cape Breton, Nova Scotia
(1987-04-15)
The Leblanc Lake area is located in the central Cape Breton
Highlands south of the Cheticamp River. The main study area is
situated along Belle Cote Road, one of the numerous logging roads
in the region. Mapping at ...
A Geochemical Study of the Carboniferous Audhild Volcanics, Northwestern Ellesmere Island, Arctic Canada: Initial Volcanism in the Sverdrup Basin
(1989-04-15)
Spilitized basalt flows constitute the largest portion of the Late Carboniferous Audhild Formation exposed on Kleybolte Peninsula, northwestern Ellesmere island. The flows were erupted subaerially and are commonly separated ...
The Petrology and Geochemistry of the Port Mouton Migmatites
(1987-04-15)
This study is centered on the migmatites found along certain portions of the contact between the Port Mouton pluton of Shelburne and Queens counties, Nova Scotia, and the local host lithology. The field relations, petrology ...
Palynology and Stratigraphy of an Upper Cretaceous Sedimentary-Volcanic Sequence, Emma Fiord, Northwest Ellesmere Island, N.W.T, Canada.
(1989-04-15)
Terrestrial sedimentary units (lignite and siliclastics) are interbedded with bimodal volcanic units (alkali basalts, silicic volcanics and pyroclastics) on an unnamed peninsula between Audhild Bay and Emma Fiord (81o30'N, ...
40Ar/39Ar Thermochronology of the Britt Domain Grenville Province - Georgian Bay, Ontario
(1989-04-15)
The 40Ar/39Ar thermochronology of a transect of the Britt domain, Central Gneiss Belt, Grenville Province has been examined in this study. In total, twelve argon gas analyses were obtained. These came from five locations ...
Sedimentation of the Barrow Group, Exmouth Plateau, Northwestern Australia
(1989-04-15)
The Exmouth Plateau is a major promontory of the north western Australian continental shelf and ranges from longitude 111oE to 117oE throughout southern latitudes 16o to 21o. This plateau has an aerial extent of approximately ...
Hydrothermal Alteration, Gold Distribution and Geochronology of Epithermal Gold Mineralization in the Copiapo Volcanic Complex, Chile
(1986-04-15)
This thesis is a pilot project of an ongoing investigation into the gold metallogenesis in the Copiapo volcanic complex, Chile. The study is aimed at understanding the pattern of hydrothermal alteration and its relation ...
