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 ...
Apatite fission track study of tectonics and provenance of sediments in the Sawtooth Range, Sverdrup Basin, Canadian Arctic Archipelago
(1996-04-15)
The Sverdrup Basin in the Canadian Arctic is a large intracratonic rift basin initiated during the late Paleozoic. Its sediments were deposited in two sequences: Proterozoic to mid-Paleozoic deformation in the Ellesmerian ...
Paleotectonic setting of the Takla Group volcano-sedimentary assemblage, Stikine Terrane, McConnell Creek map area, north central British Columbia
(1996-04-15)
The Upper Triassic Takla Group volcano-sedimentary assemblage is located within the Stikine Terrane of the Intermontane Belt in the Canadian Cordillera. In the McConnell Creek area, the assemblage consists of clinopyroxene ...
Pyrrhotite composition and its relationship to acid drainage potential in the Halifax Formation, Meguma Group, Nova Scotia
(1996-04-15)
The physical disruption of sulphidic slates of the Halifax Formation of the Meguma Group in Nova Scotia, leads to oxidation of sulphides and the generation of acid rock drainage (ARD). Acid runoff has been a serious problem ...
