Description
This report summarizes observations & structural data collected in the area of the Walker Lake shear zone in the Committee Bay supracrustal belt, central Nunavut. It first reviews the general geology of the metasedimentary & volcanic rocks of the Prince Albert group and the intrusive rocks (tonalite, granite) which were observed in the shear zone. It then describes the three generations of ductile structures that were identified in proximity to the shear zone, and offers some preliminary interpretations regarding the relationship of the shear zone to regional deformation.
