EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION OF CATION EXCHANGE BETWEEN FORMATION WATERS AND SANDSTONES AND SHALES, PHALEN COLLIERY, CAPE BRETON
(1998-04-15)The Phalen Colliery mines coal from the Phalen seam in the Upper Carboniferous Sydney Mines Formation. Flooding events in the colliery since 1992 warrant an investigation of the origin and chemical history of the inflow ... -
Experimental Investigations of Viscous Remanent Magnetization Using a Continuous Measurement System
(1979-03-15)This study showed that with a simple circuit modification this new continuous measurement system of viscous remanent magnetization (VRM) can be made more flexible as a far as the magnitude of the applied field and VRM ... -
Experimental study of reaction textures in volcaniclastic kimberlites
(2019-04-15)Some of the most famous diamond deposits are associated with Kimberly-type pyroclastic kimberlite facies (KPK) located within diatreme part of kimberlite pipes. The origin of this type of kimberlite is one of the most ... -
Exploring the feasibility and desirability of in-house diversion programs for disposable hot beverage cups at the store level in Halifax Regional Municipality
(2014-03)Disposable hot cups are associated with various environmental problems including increased pressure on landfills caused by their disposal. The objective of this study is to support decision-making for improved waste ... -
Fate of Heavy Metals in Passive Wastewater Treatment Systems of the Northwest Territories
(2020-04)Due to unique climatic, geologic, and biologic conditions of northern Canadian landscapes, wastewater management in this region is complex and geographically distinctive. Many regions of the Northwest Territories (NWT) ... -
A Field Geological Study and Analysis of Joint Patterns Related to the Francoeur-Arntfield (Gold Mines) Shear Zone, Beauchastel Township, Temiscamingue County, Abitibi Greenstone Belt, Quebec.
(1980-03-15)Field mapping (1:5000) and study of joints in an area of 7.3 square kilometres centered around the Arntfield Gold Mines, during the summer of 1979, forms the basis for this study. East-striking, north-dipping rocks of ... -
A First-Approximation Windthrow Risk Index for Street Trees on the Halifax Peninsula
(2012-03)Trees in the Halifax Regional Municipality are at particular risk to windthrow because of their proximity to the coast, and the risk of increasing storminess in the future. This study aimed to create a vulnerability index ... -
FIXATION OF SULPHUR DURING FRAMBOIDAL PYRITE DEVELOPMENT IN A PETROLEUM RESERVOIR IN CRETACEOUS VOLCANICS IN THE ANDES: IMPLICATIONS FOR CU METALLOGENESIS
(2002-04-15)El Soldado, Chile, is a giant strata-bound copper deposit hosted in Lower Cretaceous basalt and rhyodacite. Previous work suggested that copper was concentrated preferentially where hydrothermal copper-rich solutions ... -
Fluid Inclusion Geothermometry in Fluorite from Gays River, Nova Scotia and Boat Harbour, Newfoundland
(1980-03-15)Fluid inclusions in post-ore fluorite from the base metal deposit in Carboniferous carbonates at Gays River, Nova Scotia, homogenize at a mean temperature of 142 + 8oC. Calcite in the deposit crystallized earlier, at a ... -
Fluid inclusions and microstructure of flexural-slip bedding-concordant veins within the Ovens Anticline, Lunenburg, Nova Scotia
(1996-04-15)Fluid inclusions and microstructure of flexural-slip bedding-concordant quartz veins (FSBCVs) from the Ovens Anticline of the Meguma Group, were assessed and provide data on conditions and mechanisms of flexural-slip ...
