An Entity of Type: Part109385911, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The Churchill Craton is the northwest section of the Canadian Shield and stretches from southern Saskatchewan and Alberta to northern Nunavut. It has a very complex geological history punctuated by at least seven distinct regional tectonometamorphic intervals, including many discrete accretionary magmatic events. The Western Churchill province is the part of the Churchill Craton that is exposed north and west of the Hudson Bay. The Archean (ca. 1.83 Ga) Western Churchill province contributes to the complicated and protracted tectonic history of the craton and marks a major change in the behaviour of the Churchill Craton with many remnants of Archean supracrustal and granitoid rocks.

  • The Churchill Craton is the northwest section of the Canadian Shield and stretches from southern Saskatchewan and Alberta to northern Nunavut. It has a very complex geological history punctuated by at least seven distinct regional tectonometamorphic intervals, including many discrete accretionary magmatic events. The Western Churchill province is the part of the Churchill Craton that is exposed north and west of the Hudson Bay. The Archean (ca. 1.83 Ga) Western Churchill province contributes to the complicated and protracted tectonic history of the craton and marks a major change in the behaviour of the Churchill Craton with many remnants of Archean supracrustal and granitoid rocks.

  • Il cratone Churchill è la sezione nordoccidentale dello scudo canadese e si estende dalla parte meridionale del Saskatchewan e dell'Alberta fino al Nunavut settentrionale, in Canada. Il cratone ha una storia geologica molto complessa, caratterizzata da almeno sette intervalli tettonici-metamorfici, inclusi alcuni eventi accrezionali magmatici. La provincia Churchill occidentale fa parte del cratone che è esposto a nord e ovest della baia di Hudson. La provincia Churchill occidentale risale all'Archeano, circa 1,83 miliardi di anni fa, e contribuisce alla complessa e protratta storia tettonica del cratone, marcando un importante cambiamento nel comportamento del cratone Churchill, con molti residui di rocce sopracrostali e granitoidi dell'Archeano.
