Detailed mineralogical data from hydrothermally altered igneous rocks at Clarke Head, Minas fault zone, western Nova Scotia / G. Pe-Piper, J. Nagle, D.J.W. Piper, and B. Boucher.: M183-2/8499E-PDF

"Fault zone megabreccia exposed at Clarke Head, near Parrsboro, Nova Scotia, is located in a fault splay of the mid-Carboniferous Minas Fault Zone (MFZ). Lower Carboniferous sedimentary rocks and Upper Devonian–Lower Carboniferous gabbro, diorite and syenite occur as megablocks within the fault zone and have been previously reported in Geological Survey of Canada Open File 8314. This study describes the magmatic and alteration minerals of additional samples of very coarse grained syenite and diorite-tonalite. It also presents the results of LA-ICPMS analyses of rutile and titanite from the syenite"--Abstract, page 6.
