Geochemical Heterogeneity Within Mid-Ocean Ridge Lava £Ows: Insights Into Eruption, Emplacement and Global Variations in Magma Generation
Earth and Planetary Science Letters 188 (2001) 349^367 www.elsevier.com/locate/epsl Geochemical heterogeneity within mid-ocean ridge lava £ows: insights into eruption, emplacement and global variations in magma generation K.H. Rubin a;*, M.C. Smith a, E.C. Bergmanis a, M.R. Per¢t b, J.M. Sinton a, R. Batiza a;c a b c Received 5 September 2000; accepted 28 March 2001 Abstract Compositional heterogeneity in mid-ocean ridge (MOR) lava flows is a powerful yet presently under-utilized volcanological and petrological tracer. Here, it is demonstrated that variations in pre- and syn-eruptive magmatic conditions throughout the global ridge system can be constrained with intra-flow compositional heterogeneity among 10 discrete MOR flows. Geographical distribution of chemical heterogeneity within flows is also used along with mapped physical features to help decipher the range of conditions that apply to seafloor eruptions (i.e. inferred vent locations and whether there were single or multiple eruptive episodes). Although low-pressure equilibrium fractional crystallization can account for much of the observed intra-flow compositional heterogeneity, some cases require multiple parent magmas and/or more complex crystallization conditions. Globally, the extent of within-flow compositional heterogeneity is well correlated (positively) with estimated erupted volume for flows from the northern East Pacific Rise (EPR), and the Mid Atlantic, Juan de Fuca and Gorda Ridges; however, some lavas from the superfast spreading southern EPR fall below this trend. Compositional heterogeneity is also inversely correlated with spreading rate. The more homogeneous compositions of lavas from faster spreading ridges likely reflect the relative thermal stability and longevity of sub-ridge crustal magma bodies, and possibly higher eruption frequencies. -

Parents Enter Here Welcome to Keewaydin! Keewaydin Camp Wilderness Canoe Trips for Boys and Girls
KEEWAYDIN Parents Enter Here Welcome to Keewaydin! Keewaydin Camp Wilderness Canoe Trips for Boys and Girls Established in 1893 and located on Lake Temagami, in Ontario, Canada, Keewaydin is the world’s oldest canoe tripping summer camp. Keewaydin remains true to its founding principles, introducing youth to wilderness canoeing and camping with minimum time spent in base camp. Our base camp, cabins, dining hall, and lodge, serve as a jumping off point and a comfortable place for campers to return after each canoe trip. The primary time for campers at Keewaydin is spent canoeing and camping, traveling from lake to lake, and learning to make a temporary home in the wilderness. Our vision is to blend our camp traditions with current best practices of experiential education, combined with passionate and experienced staff and an abundance of beautiful camping wilderness, which results in a rich summer experience that positively impacts the life of every camper. Keewaydin Camp is part of the Keewaydin Foundation, a non-profit organization located in Vermont, whose mission is to provide outstanding camping adventures for boys and girls. what do we promise? Fun, empowering, and safe camping excursions for kids, building outdoor skills while fostering strength, leadership, self-reliance, confidence, and perseverance. Groups of six to eight boys or girls become a team (section), each member essential to the group’s success. Lifelong friendships are formed, and campers leave Keewaydin with a new stronger sense of self. Our remarkable proximity to a myriad of canoe routes, within an easy push-off from our docks, affords our campers easy access to highly- coveted wilderness and pristine waterways. -
Temagami Area Rock Art and Indigenous Routes
Zawadzka Temagami Area Rock Art 159 Beyond the Sacred: Temagami Area Rock Art and Indigenous Routes Dagmara Zawadzka The rock art of the Temagami area in northeastern Ontario represents one of the largest concentrations of this form of visual expression on the Canadian Shield. Created by Algonquian-speaking peoples, it is an inextricable part of their cultural landscape. An analysis of the distribution of 40 pictograph sites in relation to traditional routes known as nastawgan has revealed that an overwhelming majority are located on these routes, as well as near narrows, portages, or route intersections. Their location seems to point to their role in the navigation of the landscape. It is argued that rock art acted as a wayfinding landmark; as a marker of places linked to travel rituals; and, ultimately, as a sign of human occupation in the landscape. The tangible and intangible resources within which rock art is steeped demonstrate the relationships that exist among people, places, and the cultural landscape, and they point to the importance of this form of visual expression.

Wolf Lake Coalition to press Provincial Candidates and Leaders Wednesday, 28 May 2014 20:12 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE May 28, 2014 Wolf Lake Coalition to press provincial candidates’ and leaders’ commitment to protecting world’s largest old-growth red pine forest. North Bay — As the provincial election nears its climax, a coalition of 30 businesses and organizations says the time is now for candidates and party leaders to commit to protecting the world‘s largest remaining stand of old-growth red pine. The Wolf Lake Coalition is using a variety of approaches to seek support from candidates in three ridings and the party leaders for protecting the old-growth forest surrounding Wolf Lake. The forest, located in Greater Sudbury, is part of the Temagami region renowned for its forests, lakes, wildlife and diverse recreational and ecotourism opportunities. Though slated to become part of a network of protected areas, mineral claims and leases have blocked the transfer of the lands into the park system. Unfortunately, the Ministry of Northern Development and Mines has failed to seize past opportunities to let the claims and leases expire, as promised. -

Geol of Part of Strathy Cassels
3iM04sw0a92 2.2545 STRATHY 010 GEOLOGY Of part of STRATHY-CASSELS GROUP (Manderstrom-Niemetz-Morrison Option) District of Nipissing, Ontario Hollinger Mines Limited Timmins, Ontario filed for assessment November 24, 1977 P. J. Bateman l A - i - SUMMARY The property is composed of five unpatented mining claims in south-central Strathy Township, Sudbury Mining Division. It lies within the northeast part of the Temagami metavolcanic belt - a ©window 1 of Keewatin rocks surrounded by Huronian sediments of the Southern Province. The claim- group is underlain by a layered sequence of mafic, intermediate, and felsic metavolcanic rocks up to 4500 feet (1350 metres) thick. The sequence is intruded by a roughly linear ©sill 1 of diorite, which has, in turn, been injected by porphyry. Late stage intrusion is represented by west-north-west-trending olivine diabase dykes. The metavolcanic assemblage is on the north limb of the Lake Tetapaga Syncline, and appears to have been anticlinally cross-folded about a northwest axis in the north part of the group. West-north-west faulting was superimposed on the fold structures, followed by northeast faulting, and east-north-east shearing. Several small sulphide showings were found in the felsic volcanic rocks, and one returned significant assays in Cu, Ag and Au. However, these showings appear to be confined to narrow north-north-east tension fractures complimentary to regional shear zones. It is recommended to complete the geophysical surveys, examine more samples geochemically and petrographically, evaluate the results, and compare with maps of adjacent ground by D,R. Alexander. Any encouragement should be followed up by drilling. -
