Book excerpt: The Hall Peninsula Integrated Geoscience Program was led by the Canada-Nunavut Geoscience Office, and was designed to increase the geoscience knowledge and assess the economic potential of the area. Eastern Hall Peninsula is dominantly underlain by Archean tonalite to quartz diorite orthogneiss, while Paleoproterozoic supracrustal and intrusive rocks are exposed to the west. The supracrustal rocks are dominated by pelitic, psammitic, amphibolite and calc-silicate units, are interpreted as correlative with the Lake Harbour Group, and are cut by granulite-grade monzogranite to diorite intrusions. Hall Peninsula records three phases of metamorphism and deformation associated with the Trans-Hudson Orogen that have produced thick-skinned, east-verging fold and thrust structures and amphibolite to granulite facies mineral assemblages. Hall Peninsula hosts a highly prospective diamond kimberlite field, as well as mafic and carbonate supracrustal rocks, and ultramafic intrusions that may contain base and/or precious metal, semi-precious gemstone and carving stone resource potential.

This book was released on 2015 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2002, 2003 and 2005, the Canada Nunavut Geoscience Office and the Geological Survey of Canada, in collaboration with Polar Continental Shelf Program, Dalhousie University, and University of Alberta, undertook studies of northern Baffin Island to provide an improved understanding of the distribution, nature and chemistry of surficial materials, and glacial history of this region, much of which is extensively covered by thick glacial deposits. Widespread till blanket and hummocky till are common in the map area, and locally meltwater channels dissected the till blanket. Ponding of glacial meltwater resulted in deposition of glaciolacustrine sediments. Some of the smaller preserved glaciers are likely Holocene in age, rather than remnants from the continental ice sheet (Pleistocene), like the Barnes Ice Cap. A complex glacial history resulted fromoverprinting of both erosive and non-erosive basal thermal regimes at various stages ofthe deglaciation, as well as overprinting of Last Glacial Maximum (LGM)-related geomorphology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This surficial map is based on aerial photographs and satellite images interpretations, as well as on field work observations. The plateau forms a heteregenous map pattern, with patches of cold-based sediments (regolith, and regolith mixed with till) cross-cut by till deposited during glacial readvances, and glacial lakes sediments. The regolith is a pre-glacial or interglacial landscape feature. The northeastern rugged land was eroded by warm-based glaciers flowing toward the northeast, and is dominantly covered by till and bedrock outcrops. The eastern coast was dissected by valley and fiord glaciers. The Frobisher Bay moraine was formed from 9 to 8 14C ka, and the deglaciation of Chidliak Bay is dated at 8.6 14C ka. Proglacial lakes were dammed by important moraines. The observed marine limits range from 60 m asl to 85 m asl.

This book was released on 2015 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The southwest part of the Conn Lake map sheet lies within the Baffin Uplands Physiographic Region, where bedrock is extensively covered by thick glacial deposits. Some areas exhibiting scour were eroded by active, warm-based ice for longer periods of time than regions of cold-based ice. A northeastward early Holocene flow is associated with ice in Foxe Basin to the northeast. Four phases of ice flow were recognized. The Last Glacial maximum relates to phase 1, northeastward, when the region was covered by actively eroding warm-based ice. The second is a north-northeastward flow during the early stages of the Barnes Ice Cap. The next two phases (a later readvance, phase 3, and continued deglaciation, phase 4) are thought to relate to the proto-Barnes Ice Cap.
