Abstract
This digital product is a compilation of geological data which was collected as
part of the Targeted Geoscience Initiative Project from 2000-2003, as well as
additional field mapping by C. E. White. The data was used to create Nova Scotia
Department of Natural Resources (NSDNR) Open File Map OFM ME 2008-1, compiled
by C. E. White and R. C. Boehner, 2008. The digital product was created by the
NSDNR, Mineral Resources Branch (MRB) staff. The original digital data was compiled
from a number of sources and supplemented by field done during the course of the
project. The digital product contains layers for geological features such as:
drillholes, faults, bedrock geology units, geological contacts, mineral occurrences,
neatline, outcrops, quarries and structural data.
This digital product was generated using funds provided under
the Natural Resources Canada and Nova Scotia Department of Natural
Resources joint project 'Geological Mapping for Mineral Development in South-central Cape Breton Island',
part of Natural Resources Canada's
Targeted Geoscience Initiative (TGI) 2000-2003.
