Description
Summary:The areas under consideration in this thesis were geologically surveyed in the summer of 1954 by the Newfoundland and Labrador Corporation. Reconnaissance work was carried out by four field parties that were "spotted" at various locations during the summer, and by a helicopter party. One of the field groups was headed by the writer. The interval between traverses was from one-half to one mile. A study was made of thin sections cut from specimens collected by these parties and a description of these sections is the chief contribution of this thesis.
