The Geology of the Antigonish Highlands, Nova Scotia
註釋The Antigonish Highlands are located in northeastern mainland Nova Scotia and include western Antigonish County, eastern Pictou County, and northernmost Guysborough County. This study re-examined the geology of the highlands, including mapping the distribution of the pre-Upper Devonian rocks; determining the stratigraphic sequence; analyzing the structural and metamorphic histories; describing the geochemistry and evaluating the petrogenesis of the igneous rocks; determining the tectonic history of the area and evaluating its role in the evolution of the Appalachian Orogenic Belt; and evaluating the economic potential. An aeromagnetic survey was conducted in 1977 and 1978.
