The complex, located 100 km northwest of Chesterfield Inlet, is comprised of an Archean layered gabbro-mafic granulite-anorthosite suite which was deformed and metamorphosed at mid-crustal levels during Late Archean and Paleoproterozoic events. It forms a rootless, triangular segment (30 x 20 km) of straight gneisses, the boundaries of which are marked by granulite grade ultramylonites. Photo by S.

The data suggests that the 1936 + 8 Ma zircon age records a Paleoproterozoic, granulite grade, ductile event that overprinted an Archean (ca. 2.59 Ga), granulite grade mylonitic event. Titanite and rutile ages record post-mylonite, uplift and cooling events. Thermobarometric data suggests that the Paleoproterozoic event occurred at pressures in excess of 10 kbar, (30 km).

Abstract: The central Minto block contains three volcano-sedimentary successions. Near Lake Qalluviartuuq, an isotopically primitive (2-83 GaeNd +3.8 to +2.3) 2.83 Ga volcano-plutonic sequence comprises depleted tholeiitic basalts, anorthositic gabbro, and diorite-granodiorite that is unconformably 2 76 Ga overlain by <2.77 Ga conglomerates. Overlying the conglomerate is a more evolved ( - £Nd +1.8) calc-alkaline sequence of pillow basalts, andesites, and peridotite cut by 2.73 Ga diorite. To the west, and in inferred tectonic contact, the sediment-dominated Kogaluc sequence includes both isotopically evolved 276 Ga calc-alkaline rocks ( £Nd +1-6 to -0.1) including <2.76 Ga rhyolitic tuff, pillowed andesites, and 276Ga 2.76 Ga quartz-feldspar porphyry, and less abundant, depleted tholeiitic basalts ( £Nd +24). These are interlain with sedimentary rocks including banded iron-formation, quartzite, and metagreywacke. Calc- 2 78 Ga alkaline batholiths include 2.78 Ga pyroxene-bearing intermediate and felsic plutons ( - eNd <+2.7) and younger, peraluminous tonalites (eN(l <+1.3).

Sharma Pierre Lacoste Accompanies map SI-34J-C2G-02A Porphyritic metalavas of the Chavigny Complex. 2003 Québec Geology of the Lac Vernon area (34J) Martin Parent Alain Leclair Jean David Kamal N.M. Sharma Pierre Lacoste RG 2002-07 (Accompanies map SI-34J-C2G-02A) Abstract The Lac Vernon area, bounded by latitudes 58°00' and 59°00' north and longitudes 74°00' and 76°00' west, is represented by NTS sheet 34J. It covers a surface area of about 13,000 km'. The centre of the area is located 175 km east of the community of Inukjuak, and about 140 km from the coast of Hudson Bay. The geological survey carried out at 1:250,000 scale was conducted within the scope of the Far North mapping project spearheaded by Géologie Québec. Archean rocks in the Lac Vernon area were subdivided into different lithological and lithodemic units. Volcano-sedimentary rocks are concentrated in the Chavigny (2722 Ma) and Kogaluc (< 2759 Ma) complexes, whereas sedimentary rocks in the central part of the map area were grouped in the Le Roy Complex. Elsewhere, a few bands several kilometres in size, mainly composed of paragneiss with a few mafic gneiss outcrops were grouped in a lithological paragneiss unit. Tonalitic rocks belong to the Rochefort (2769 Ma) and Kakiattuk (2740 Ma) suites, whereas foliated and granoblastic gabbros, diorites and gabbronorites are associated with the Bacqueville Suite.

  • Tectonothermal Evolution of the Northern Minto Block, Superior Province, Quebec, Canada
    345 The Canadian Mineralogist Vol. 38, pp. 345-378 (2000) TECTONOTHERMAL EVOLUTION OF THE NORTHERN MINTO BLOCK, SUPERIOR PROVINCE, QUEBEC, CANADA JOHN A. PERCIVAL§ AND THOMAS SKULSKI§ Geological Survey of Canada, 601 Booth Street, Ottawa, Ontario K1A 0E8, Canada ABSTRACT Previously considered one of Earth’s largest granulite terranes, the Minto block, in northern Quebec, consists dominantly of granitic rocks with sparse supracrustal remnants that record low-pressure, high-temperature metamorphism to the amphibolite and granulite facies at ca. 2.7 Ga. Much of the region is underlain by plutonic rocks, including igneous charnockitic bodies, that provide little evidence of metamorphism. In contrast, pelitic assemblages in low-grade greenstone belts and their higher-grade shoulders define four metamorphic zones: 1) sub-staurolite-grade slates, found only in the Duquet belt, 2) staurolite – andalusite – sillimanite – garnet-zone schists, present in all belts, 3) marginal garnet – sillimanite ± kyanite migmatites, and 4) garnet – sillimanite ± cordierite and garnet – orthopyroxene granulites, as enclaves within plutonic units. A prograde low-pressure, high- temperature regional facies-series is defined by andalusite – sillimanite assemblages, thermobarometric analyses that indicate peak conditions ranging from 3 kbar, 560°C to 8.4 kbar, 840°C, and short segments of anticlockwise P–T trajectories preserved in two of the lowest-grade areas. Kyanite occurs in migmatites in the vicinity of a ca. 2.81 Ga shear zone bounding two distinct supracrustal assemblages and marks an earlier Barrovian event. All belts are polydeformed, with a common, broadly synmetamorphic, NNW-striking, steep foliation and down-dip lineation related to regional-scale F2 folds. Distributed late-meta- morphic dip-slip shear appears responsible in some areas for cross-strike juxtaposition of low- and high-grade metamorphic zones.
