Regional Surficial Geology of the Scotian Shelf 2004, Atlantic Ocean, offshore eastern Canada (0) 10a Sable Island Sand and Gravel - sand with less than 50% gravel 10b Sable Island Sand and Gravel - gravel with less than 50% sand 10c Sable Island Sand and Gravel - undifferentiated sand and gravel, innermost nearshore areas are generally highly variable and may contain silt and clay 6 Scotian Shelf Drift - a poorly sorted homogeneous mixture of gravel, sand, silt and clay (till), may include some stratified drift 7 Emerald Silt - poorly sorted clay and sandy silt sometimes with gravel ranging to a well sorted silt 8 Sambro Sand - dominantly a silty and clayey sand ranging to a sandy gravel 9 LaHave Clay - dominantly a silty clay to a clayey silt, ranges locally from a silty sandy clay or a clayey sandy silt to a silty clayey sand sometimes with gravel Surficial Geology of Bras d'Or Lake 2008, Cape Breton Island, eastern Canada (1) B Sedimentary rocks Gas_charged_sediment Gm Glaciomarine and glaciolacustrine mud Ic Ice-contact sediment PGa Anthropogenic deposits PGg Undifferentiated muddy sandy gravel PGl Littoral deposits PGm Lacustrine and marine mud Surficial Geology of Browns Bank 2006, Gulf of Maine, Scotian Shelf, offshore eastern Canada (2) B Undifferentiated bedrock Icl Ice-contact sediment (landforms) Ict Ice-contact sediment (till) PGssp Postglacial sand (spillover deposits) PGstk Postglacial sand (thick) PGstn Postglacial sand (thin) Surficial Geology of Great Bras d'Or 2008, Cape Breton Island, eastern Canada (3) B Sedimentary rocks Gas_charged_sediment Gm Glaciomarine and glaciolacustrine mud Ic Ice-contact sediment PGa Anthropogenic deposits PGbm Basin mud PGf Fluvial deposits PGg Undifferentiated muddy sandy gravel PGl Littoral deposits PGm Lacustrine and marine mud PGtc Tidal channel deposits PGtd Tidal-delta deposits Surficial Geology of Halifax Harbour 2008, Scotian Shelf, offshore eastern Canada (4) 1 Acoustic Basement 3 Glaciomarine and Lacustrine Sediments 5 Sable Island Sand and Gravel: Inner harbour gravel 6 Sable Island Sand and Gravel: Gravel 7 Sable Island Sand and Gravel: Sand 8 LaHave Clay Surficial Geology of inner St. Georges Bay 2006, western Newfoundland, offshore eastern Canada (5) Gm Glaciomarine mud Gmd Glaciomarine mud (deformed) Ic Ice-contact sediment PGa Anthropogenic deposits PGf Submarine fans PGm Postglacial mud PGs Postglacial sand PGsp Spillover deposits PGspl Spit platform and littorial sand deposits PGw Mass-wasting deposits Surficial Geology of Logan Canyon 2008, Scotian Slope, offshore eastern Canada (6) Bcg Canyon wall (gullied) Bch Canyon head Bcp Canyon wall (planar or retrogressive) Gc Canyon- and channel-fill deposits Gce Canyon- and channel-fill deposits (near-surface erosion) Gi Ice-margin deposits Gm Proglacial mud Gmd Proglacial mud (near-surface deformation) Gme Proglacial mud (near-surface erosion) Gmec Proglacial mud (complex near-surface erosion) Gw Mass-transport deposits (undifferentiated) PGs Fine to medium sand PGsg Sand or gravelly sand Surficial Geology of Mohican Channel 2008, Scotian Slope, offshore eastern Canada (7) Bcg Canyon wall (gullied) Bcp Canyon wall (planar or retrogressive) Gc Canyon- and channel-fill deposits Gi Ice-margin deposits Gm Proglacial mud Gmd Proglacial mud (near-surface deformation) Gme Proglacial mud (near-surface erosion) Gmec Proglacial mud (complex near-surface erosion) Gw Mass-transport deposits (undifferentiated) PGsg Sand or gravelly sand Surficial Geology -
