| dc.description.abstract | Diamond bearing Neoarchean metaconglomerates are present in the Michipicoten greenstone belt, Wawa-Abitibi subprovince near Wawa, Ontario. They form a portion of the Dore Metasedimentary rocks in the Arliss Lake subbasin, and unconformably overlie a succession of mafic metabasalts. The conglomerates are transitional into argillite which in turn is conformably overlain by metabasalts. The conglomeratic succession has a maximum thickness of 454 meters and confined to what appears to be a deformed paleovalley at the base of the sedimentary succession. | en_US |
