Description
After an overview of the regional geological setting, this paper describes the geology of the three contrasting domains of the Committee Bay belt in central Nunavut. The first & largest section covers the central domain, which comprises four narrow supracrustal belts intruded by lenticular plutonic bodies. The remaining sections describe the northern crustal domain, dominated by metasedimentary rocks & granitoid plutons, and the south-east domain, dominated by granodiorite to granite batholiths that intrude rocks of the central domain.
