Sedimentologic and palaeomagnetic characteristics of glaciolacustrine diamict assemblages at Scarborough Bluffs, Ontario, Canada.

Abstract

Outlines an approach to the description and interpretation of sequences based on lithofacies description employing lithofacies codes, analysis of stratigraphic sequence (vertical profile analysis) and derivation of remanent magnetism. Employing this approach at the Scarborough Bluffs demonstrates that the multiple 'tills' there are glaciolacustrine diamicts formed by pelagic rain-out and ice rafting separated by sandy deltaic lithofacies. -from Authors
