AbstractThis map and the related geodatabase illustrate the bedrock geology of central and northeastern Victoria Island, Stefansson Island, and western Prince of Wales Island. Major features of the area include inliers of Neoarchean basement granitoid rocks; clastic rock-dominated sections associated with the late Paleoproterozoic Kilohigok Basin, and Mesoproterozoic Elu Basin; extensive Meso- and Neoproterozoic strata of Amundsen Basin, diabase sills, and extrusive basaltic rocks related to the Franklin Large Igneous Province (ca. 723 Ma) and unconformable Cambrian to Devonian strata of Arctic Platform.
Summary(Plain Language Summary, not published)
This map and the accompanying spatial files provide users with a flexible means of accessing the geology of the Canadian Arctic Islands. The present publication is one of fifteen collectively covering all of the Canadian Arctic Islands north and west of Baffin Island.
