The Archean greenstone belts of the Mary River Group (2865-2706 Ma), or MRG, occur in northern Baffin Island and remain poorly understood in terms of structure, stratigraphy and metallogeny. The Eqe Bay greenstone belt is the least deformed and metamorphosed exposure of the MRG, and is divisible int...
