Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This map summarizes the field observations for the McKeand River (north) map area following eight weeks of regional and targeted bedrock mapping on western Hall Peninsula. The 2015 field campaign completes a two-decade mission to update map coverage for the whole of Baffin Island south of latitude 70°N. The bedrock is dominated by a Paleoproterozoic metaplutonic suite, ranging in composition from gabbro to syenogranite, with crosscutting relations indicating a progression from mafic to silicic magmatism. Prevailing upper amphibolite to lower granulite facies metamorphic conditions overlap the stability limits of magnetite and orthopyroxene, which is consistent with equilibrium phase diagrams and regional aeromagnetic data. Metasedimentary rocks, including quartzite, pelite, marble, and metagreywacke, are present as screens and enclaves between and within plutonic bodies. An examination of the 'ghost' stratigraphy suggests that the metasedimentary rocks can be correlated with the middle Paleoproterozoic Lake Harbour Group in the south and Piling Group in the north. Two basaltic dyke swarms and shallowly dipping Ordovician limestone respectively crosscut and overly the Paleoproterozoic units.

This book was released on 2000 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Describes the geology of an area covering about 82,000 square kilometres in north central Baffin Island, beginning with an introduction on the area's location, access, physiography, climate, general geology, and previous studies. Subsequent chapters cover the geology of the Archean to Cretaceous and Recent formations, regional geochemistry, regional geochronology, regional & contact metamorphism, economic geology, and structural geology. The final chapter is a regional synthesis with general comments on structural subdivisions, the nature of their boundaries, regional correlations, and geological history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This report serves as a progress report on the fieldwork, map compilation and geoscience research undertaken in the GEM-2 North Baffin bedrock mapping activity in late 2016 and 2017, as part of GEM-2 Baffin Project. Geological maps inform industry, government, and community stakeholders of potential economic resources. During the past two decades, systematic and targeted mapping of Precambrian and Phanerozoic bedrock geology has been completed for large tracts of Nunavut. Updated regional bedrock map coverage for Baffin Island south of latitude 70°N was completed in 2016. The activity described herein represents the first steps towards an updated geological framework north of 70°N, with the goal of producing maps at a scale and resolution commensurate with those produced for the southern portion of the island"--Project summary, p. 3.
