Petrology and Isotopic Composition of a Grenvillian Basement Fragment in the Northern Appalachian Orogen: Blair River Inlier, Nova Scotia, Canada

Mesoproterozoic metaplutonic rocks in northern Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia, occur in a tectonic inlier within the Appalachian orogen. Although they have been multiply metamorphosed and variably deformed, the petrology and geochemistry of these rocks provide insight into the tectonomagmatic evolu...
