Abstract
This digital product is a compilation of geological data which was collected as part of the geological mapping in the Antigonish Highlands of northern mainland Nova Scotia initiated in 2010. The data was used to create Nova Scotia Department of Natural Resources (NSNR&R) Open File Map OFM ME 2018-001, compiled by C. E. White. The digital product was created by the NSNR&R, Mineral Resources Branch (MRB) staff from 3 summers of field work by Chris White, and follow-up stratigraphic, geochemical, geochronological, paleontological, and isotopic studies. The digital product contains layers for geological features such as: drillholes, faults, bedrock geologic units, geological contacts, mineral occurrences, neatline, small outcrops and structural data.
The principal goals of this project are to produce a geological bedrock map of the area, to describe and interpret the sedimentary, igneous, metamorphic and deformational history of the area, and to evaluate the area's economic potential. |
