| Abstract | The Hall Peninsula predictive bedrock map was produced for the Remote Predictive Mapping (RPM) project, part of the Geo-mapping for energy and minerals (GEMS) program; accompanying this map is a legend
and various supporting figures. Three magnetic domains have been recognized which have been divided into RPM sub-units based on the interpretation of enhanced magnetic, remotely sensed (LANDSAT and SPOT 4) and digital topographic data (DEM). Legacy
data have been used to geologically calibrate the various RPM units. The RPM legend includes a description of the remotely sensed and geophysical characteristics as well as rock names based on the legacy field data and notes. Geological structures
(faults, form lines) have also been included, compiled from legacy maps as well as interpretation of the various geoscience datasets. The complete geoscience dataset used to create this map will be released in a future Open File. |

The Hall Peninsula predictive bedrock map was produced for the Remote Predictive Mapping (RPM) project, part of the Geo-mapping for energy and minerals
(GEMS) program; accompanying this map is a legend and various supporting figures. Three magnetic domains have been recognized which have been divided into RPM sub-units based on the interpretation of enhanced airborne magnetic data, remotely sensed
satellite imagery and digital topographic data. Legacy geological data have been used to calibrate the various RPM units. The RPM legend includes a description of the remotely sensed and geophysical characteristics as well as rock names based on the
legacy field data and notes. Geological structures (faults, form lines) have also been included, compiled from legacy geology maps as well as interpretation of the various geoscience datasets. The complete geoscience dataset used to create this map
will be released in a future Open File. |
