Synopsis The Geology of the Antigonish Highlands, Nova Scotia by : J. B. Murphy
The purpose of this study is to re-examine the geology of the Antigonish Highlands. This involves: 1) mapping the distribution of the pre-Upper Devonian rocks of the Antigonish Highlands; 2) determining the stratigraphic sequence; 3) analyzing the structural and metamorphic histories; 4) describing the geochemistry and evaluating the petro-genesis of the igneous rocks; 5) determining the tectonic history of the highlands and evaluating its role in the evolution of the Appalachian Orogenic Belt; 6) evaluating the economic potential of the highlands.

Synopsis Geology of the Appalachian—Caledonian Orogen in Canada and Greenland by : Harold Williams
This volume focuses on the Canadian Appalachian region. The chapter on the East Greenland Caledonides stands alone and there is no attempt to integrate the geological accounts of the two far removed regions. Rocks of the Canadian Appalachian region are described under four broad temporal divisions: lower Paleozoic and older, middle Paleozoic, upper Paleozoic, and Mesozoic. The rocks of these temporal divisions define geographic zones, belts, basins, and graben, respectively. The area is of special interest because so many modern concepts of mountain building are based on Appalachian rocks & structures.

Synopsis The Sedimentary Basins of the United States and Canada by : Andrew Miall
The Sedimentary Basins of the United States and Canada, Second Edition, focuses on the large, regional, sedimentary accumulations in Canada and the United States. Each chapter provides a succinct summary of the tectonic setting and structural and paleogeographic evolution of the basin it covers, with details on structure and stratigraphy. The book features four new chapters that cover the sedimentary basins of Alaska and the Canadian Arctic. In addition to sedimentary geologists, this updated reference is relevant for basin analysis, regional geology, stratigraphy, and for those working in the hydrocarbon exploration industry. - Features updates to existing chapters, along with new chapters on sedimentary basins in Alaska and Arctic Canada - Includes nearly 300 detailed, full-color paleogeographic maps - Written for general geological audiences and individuals working in the resources sector, particularly those in the fossil fuel industry

Synopsis Middle American Terranes, Potential Correlatives, and Orogenic Processes by : J. Duncan Keppie
Consisting of papers that have appeared recently in International Geology Review, Middle American Terranes, Potential Correlatives, and Orogenic Processes focuses on Middle American terranes in which tectonic processes, including flat-slab subduction, for orogenic development are examined at various times since the late Mesoproterozoi

Synopsis Pannotia to Pangaea by : B. Murphy
Special Publication 503 celebrates the career of R. Damian Nance. It features 27 articles, with more than 110 authors based in 18 different countries. These articles include contributions on the processes responsible for the formation and breakup of supercontinents, the controversies concerning the status of Pannotia as a supercontinent, the generation and destruction of Paleozoic oceans, and the development of the Appalachian-Ouachitan-Caledonide-Variscan orogens. In addition to field work, the approaches to gain that understanding include examining the relationships between stratigraphy and structural geology, precise geochronology, geochemical and isotopic fingerprinting, geodynamic modelling, regional syntheses, palaeogeographic modelling, and good old-fashioned arm-waving! The wide range of topics mirrors the breadth and depth of Damian’s contributions, interests and expertise. Like Damian’s papers, the contributions range from the predominantly conceptual to detailed field work, but all are targeted at understanding important tectonic processes. Their scope not only varies in scale from global to regional to local, but also in the range of approaches required to gain that understanding.

Synopsis Geology of the Eastern Cobequid Highlands, Nova Scotia by : J. B. Murphy
The Cobequid Highlands of Nova Scotia lie within the Avalon composite terrane of the Appalachian Orogen. This report presents a description & interpretation of the field, structural, and laboratory studies of pre-Carboniferous rocks of the eastern part of the Highlands based on mapping at 1:10,000 scale. It includes information on the Precambrian & Palaeozoic sedimentary, volcanic, & plutonic rocks; geochemistry of selected rocks; uranium-lead age determinations; and structural geology, including deformation histories & faults. Correlations with rocks in the Antigonish Highlands are also discussed.
