Pre-Cambrian Rocks of South-East Newfoundland: A Dissertation, Presented to the Faculty of Princeton University Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy, April, 1916 (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Excerpt from Pre-Cambrian Rocks of South-East Newfoundland: A Dissertation, Presented to the Faculty of Princeton University Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy, April, 1916
The following paper gives the more important results of an investigation based upon field work carried on during the summers of 1913 and 1914.
Southeastern Newfoundland is important geologically. In that it affords, as far as is known, the most complete section of the later pre-cambrian rocks along the eastern coast of North America, and an understanding of this section should aid in the correlation of the later pre-cambrian at other localities. The term later pre-cambrian, as here used, is possibly the equivalent of the terms Proterozoic or Algonkian.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents the findings of a study conducted on the pre-Cambrian rocks of southeastern Newfoundland, an area where the most complete section of later pre-Cambrian rocks is found along North America's eastern coast. The author's field work, carried out during the summers of 1913 and 1914, focuses on a geological sequence of volcanic series, plutonic series, and dike series. The author provides evidence that these rocks were formed during a period of volcanic activity, and that they have since been intruded by granite and other igneous rocks. This book contributes to our understanding of the geological history of the region and provides valuable insights into the processes that shaped the Earth's crust during the pre-Cambrian era. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781334486647_0
