Paleoceanographic Trends on the Northern Scotian Shelf
(1986-04-15)
Paleoceanographic trends are recorded and reflected in the preservation of benthonic foraminiferal assemblages in ocean floor sediments. This study presents a succession of foraminiferal assemblages from an 8m core taken ...
Upper Carboniferous Fluvial Sedimentation in the Gulf of St. Lawrence Coal Basin, Mabou Mines, Nova Scotia
(1986-04-15)
Mabou Mines is located on the northwestern coast of Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia. Steeply dipping sedimentary strata of the Upper Carboniferous Pictou Group (dated as Late Westphalian C) are exposed on the shoreface. ...
Carboniferous Fluvial Strata of the Inverness Formation at Finlay Point, Southwest Cape Breton Island.
(1986-04-15)
A red bed unit of Westphalian C age at Finlay Point, Mabou Mines, Inverness County, Nova Scotia occurs stratigraphically near the base of the Inverness Formation and is correlated with offshore coal seams in the St. Lawrence ...
Relations Between the Sulphide Minerals, Metamorphism, and Deformation in the Faribault Brook Area of the Cape Breton Highlands, Nova Scotia
(1986-04-15)
The study area is located within the Jumping Brook Complex which is part of the western Highlands volcanic sedimentary complex. In the Faribault Brook area, the Jumping Brook Complex consists of a unit of pillow basalts ...
Gravity Modeling of a Mafic-Ultramafic Association Darvel Bay, Sabah, Northern Borneo.
(1986-04-15)
The association of Pre-Tertiary mafic and ultramafic rocks exposed at Darvel Bay, East Sabah, is believed to form an ophiolite suite. These outcrops are believed to provide evidence for a Middle Tertiary island arc-continent ...
Magnetic Modelling in the Davis Strait and Northern Labrador Sea
(1986-04-15)
The Davis Strait is a constricted passage lying between Baffin Island and Greenland. Davis Strait separates the waters of Baffin Bay and the Labrador Sea. There have been disagreements as to the nature of the crust in ...
Analyses of Dyke Swarms within the Sverdrup Basin Queen Elizabeth Islands
(1986-04-15)
The Sverdrup Basin is a sedimentary basin within the Canadian Arctic Islands. This area has had a complex tectonic and igneous history with several episodes of intrusive and extrusive activity. The last episode is believed ...
Sedimentology of the Carboniferous Canso Group at Broad Cove, Nova Scotia
(1986-04-15)
Carboniferous Canso Group strata are well exposed on the west coast of Cape Breton Island at Broad Cove, 5 km northeast of Inverness. The study area is a coastal section extending from the mouth of Smith's Brook, which ...
Arcellaceans in Nova Scotia: Selected Biostratigraphic Studies
(1985-04-15)
Surficial sediment samples and cores from both Albro and Penhorn Lakes were examined to determine the biostratigraphy of the lakes, based on arcellaceans. Considerable morphological variation of species is noted and ...
The Contact Metamorphic Effects of a Granitoid Pluton on Zinc-Lead Mineralization in the Manganiferous Metasediments of the Meguma Group, Eastville, Colchester County, Nova Scotia
(1985-04-15)
The distribution of mineral resources in the Meguma Zone has been found to be spatially associated with the transition of the Goldenville and Halifax Formations (GHT, Zentilli and MacInnis, 1984). The Eastville deposit ...
