Abstract:

Fifty new Nd isotope analyses are presented from the North Bay area of the Grenville Province in Ontario. These data are used to map the extent of an allochthonous Grenvillian terrane which is an outlier of the Allochthonous Polycyclic Belt of the Grenville Province. Amphibolite facies orthogneisses from the allochthonous terrane have depleted mantle Nd model ages (TDM) below 1.8 Ga, whereas the gneisses of the structurally underlying parautochthon almost invariably have model ages above 1.8 Ga. The distribution of model ages is consistent with the distribution of distinct types of metabasic rock, used by other researchers as the criterion for recognizing rocks of the allochthonous and parautochthonous belts of the Grenville Province. The agreement between these different types of evidence demonstrates that Nd isotope mapping is a reliable and powerful tool for mapping terrane boundaries in high-grade metamorphic belts.

Abstract:

AbstractTo properly understand the tectonic history of the Grenville Province it is necessary to have a reliable, scientifically based understanding of the present-day three-dimensional (3D) structure of the orogen. Based on detailed Nd isotope mapping of surface boundaries and Lithoprobe seismic sections, this study provides the first detailed visualization of the 3D structure of the Grenville gneiss belt in Ontario using the SketchUp software package. The 3D visualization supports a model in which thrust geometry was imposed from the top downwards, controlled by the NW boundary of the Central Metasedimentary Belt that originated as a failed back-arc rift zone. The Central Metasedimentary Belt boundary controlled the trajectory of the Allochthon Boundary Thrust, its underlying tectonic duplex and, ultimately, the Grenville Front. This process of superimposed thrusting explains the large-scale change in the trajectory of the Grenville Front north of Georgian Bay that has been called the ‘Big Bend’. To assist in visualizing the 3D model, a fly-through animation is provided in the supplementary material.

Abstract:

ABSTRACTThe Lake Nipigon basin lies north of the Lake Superior basin and was the hydrological link between glacial Lake Agassiz and the Great Lakes during part of the last deglaciation. A sequence of glaciolacustrine sediments, composed mainly of silt-clay rhythmites and sand, was deposited in the offshore waters of glacial Lake Nipigon by overflow from Lake Agassiz and meltwater from the retreating glacier margin. Sections from six long sediment cores and four lake bluff exposures reveal a sandy (early deglacial) lower section that is overlain by 300 to 850 silt-clay rhythmites (varves). Deposition of these varves, as well as coarser sediment along the western shore, began after 9200 BP, as the glacial margin retreated northward along the continental divide that separated the Nipigon basin from the higher Lake Agassiz basin to the west. The absence of ice rafted clasts in the rhythmites suggests that the ice had retreated from the lake by the time they were deposited. On the basis of their elevation in relation to the lowest raised beach at West Bay, which formed about 9000 BP, most rhythmites probably were deposited between 9000 and 8000 BP. Species of arboreal pollen are present in early postglacial sediments of the Nipigon-Superior lowlands, suggesting that the Lake Nipigon region became colonized by coniferous and deciduous forests soon after déglaciation. The presence of non-arboreal pollen species suggest that these forests were interspersed with open meadows and grasslands, similar to today's floral assemblages. Fossil molluscs recovered from glaciolacustrine sand exposed along the eastern side of the basin suggest that the limnological characteristics of late glacial Lake Nipigon were similar to those of today.

Abstract:

ABSTRACTIn the Geraldton and Hemlo areas distantly-derived carbonate tills lie between slightly to non-calcareous tills and can be distinguished by textural, carbonate, and clast compositions. Their occurrence and uniform character over large areas of the Shield attest to high sediment flux by rapid movement of distal debris within the southern part of the Laurentide Ice Sheet. This is consistent with low surface profiles reconstructed for the Superior and Michigan lobes which were likely fed by ice north of Superior and probably affected by ice streaming. Till deposition in the Geraldton and Hemlo areas can be explained with one southwestward glacial advance. A broad ice stream probably issued out of James Bay and up the Albany conduit between zones of normal ice velocity within the Laurentide marginal area. It may have split to flow down the Drowning and Kenogami troughs. Eventually, zones of ice streaming reached the Geraldton and Hemlo areas where Shield uplands induced lee side extending flow, downward transport, and lodgment of calcareous englacial debris on local tills. Following the glacial maximum much of the distal englacial debris was laid down by subglacial meltout. However, a glacial reactivation occurred which moulded drumlins in the carbonate tills near Geraldton and deposited an upper calcareous lodgment till at Hemlo. Final Laurentide decay resulted in meltout of supraglacial debris that had been sheared up to or near the glacier surface from the stoss sides of the uplands.

Abstract:

The Archaean Steep Rock Group of northwest Ontario, situated in the Wabigoon Subprovince of the Superior Province, Canada, comprises five formations: Wagita Formation (clastics), Mosher Carbonate, Jolliffe Ore Zone, Dismal Ashrock, and Witch Bay Formation (metavolcanics). Reinvestigation of the geology of the group has shown that the basal clastics of the Wagita Formation (0–150 m) unconformably overlie the Marmion Complex (a massive tonalite – tonalite gneiss terrane, 3 Ga old). Overlying the basal elastics is the Mosher Carbonate (0–500 m), containing diverse stromatolite morphologies. Extensive zones of carbonate breccia occur adjacent to fault zones and mafic dykes. Stratigraphically above the Mosher Carbonate is the Jolliffe Ore Zone (100–400 m), which is divided into a lower Manganiferous Paint Rock Member and an upper Goethite Member. Within the Jolliffe Ore Zone thin layers of "Buckshot Ore" occur. These are horizons of haematitic pisolites and fragments, set in a lighter ferruginous matrix of kaolinite and gibbsite. Overlying the Jolliffe Ore Zone is the Dismal Ashrock, a dominantly high-Mg pyroclastic rock (22% MgO) with minor interbedded lava flows (15% MgO). In contact with the Dismal Ashrock are the metavolcanics of the Witch Bay Formation. This juxtaposition is not exposed in the Steep Rock mine section, and the Witch Bay Formation may be separated from the Dismal Ashrock by a structural break. The Witch Bay Formation is only provisionally included in the Steep Rock Group.The group is interpreted as a sequence deposited in an extensional or rifting environment. The unconformity has regional significance, and it may be possible to define an extensive cratonic nucleus of 3 Ga or older age in northwest Ontario.

Abstract:

Despite increasing concern about the presence of heavy metals, pesticides and other toxins in indoor environments, very little is known about the physical and chemical composition of ordinary household dust. This study represents the first systematic investigation of the mineralogical composition of indoor dust in residential housing in Canada. Specimens of dust were obtained from homes in six geographically separate cities in the Province of Ontario: two located on the metamorphic and igneous rocks of the Precambrian Canadian Shield (Thunder Bay and Sudbury), the other four located on Palaeozoic limestone and shale dominated bedrock (Barrie, Burlington, Cambridge, and Hamilton). Forty samples of household vacuum dust were obtained. The coarse fraction (80 – 300 µm) of this dust was subjected to flotation (using water) to separate the organic components (e.g. insect fragments, dander), natural and synthetic materials (e.g. fibres, plastics) from the mineral residue. The mineral fraction was then analyzed using quantitative point counting, polarizing light microscopy, powder X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy methods. Despite the great distances between the sampling localities and the distinct differences in bedrock geology, the mineral fraction of dust from all six cities is remarkably similar and dominated by quartz and feldspar, followed by lithic fragments, calcite, and amphibole. Some evidence of the influence of local geology can nevertheless be found. For example, a relatively higher proportion of sulphide minerals is observed in the two cities on the Canadian Shield where these minerals are clearly more abundant in the bedrock. Specimens from Sudbury, Canada’s largest mining centre located atop a nickel-sulphide mineral deposit, showed the highest sulphide contents. Quartz is the dominant mineral in all cities. All quartz grains have internal strain features and fluid inclusions that are indicative of a metamorphic-igneous provenance. In all cities, sand is used on the streets as an abrasive for traction during the icy winter season. This sand is obtained in all cases from local glaciofluvial deposits that were ultimately derived principally from the rocks of the Canadian Shield in the last Pleistocene glaciations that affected all of Ontario. Thus, tracking in sand is the most plausible mechanism by which quartz was introduced into these homes since sampling was done, in all cases, in the winter season. The results indicate that glacial deposits dominate the mineral composition of indoor dust in Ontario cities and that nature of the bedrock immediately underlying the sampling sites is relatively of minor importance.

Abstract:

The Red Lake greenstone belt is considered to be one of Canada’s premier gold producing regions with the Red Lake Gold Mines having produced >24 million ounces of gold to date. The East Bay Trend is a large structural corridor that parallels the East Bay of Red Lake, Ontario and is interpreted to be a manifestation of the regional D1 structure that crosscuts this complexly folded greenstone belt. The southernmost 8 km of this corridor is host to a variety of small gold deposits that demonstrate an assortment of mineralization styles. This study aims to: (1) better define veining styles and characterize the mineralizing fluids using petrography, fluid inclusions, geochronology and stable isotopes, (2) compare barren and auriferous veins from deposits along the East Bay Trend, and (3) compare the fluid history of the East Bay Trend to the Campbell-Red Lake gold deposit to determine the gold potential along this trend.
