ABSTRACT. The Lower Proterozoic, Lake Superior-type Sokoman Iron Formation of the Labrador Trough is one of the world's largest iron formations. It …
The Paleoproterozoic Sokoman Formation (ca. 1.88 Ga) of the Labrador Trough, eastern Canada, is a ca. 100-m-thick succession of interbedded iron formation and fine-grained, terrigenous clastic sedimentary rocks. Detailed examination of drill cores and outcrops indicates a dynamic paleoshelf where an oxygen-stratified water column, …

The Centre for Earth Resources Research (CERR) in conjunction with the Labrador Section, Geological Survey Branch, Newfoundland Department of Mines and Energy held a one-day meeting on the Geology of Labrador on February 16,1990. This session was part of the activities planned to celebrate the opening of the new Alexander Murray building.
In geological terms, the Labrador Trough – or the "crust on the Canadian Shield pie" as the late geologist and Labradorian Edmund Montague once called it – is a belt of volcanic, metamorphic, and sedimentary rock, which was formed and transformed by significant geological events – including sediment deposition by ancient rivers and ...

Detailed mapThe geology of the eastern margin Labrador Trough is comprised of a series of Paleoproterozoic (2.17 to 1.87 Ga) sedimentary and volcanic rocks, which have been subdivided into a series of distinct lithotectonic zones. Numerous mineral occurrences are known in this region, which include the following deposit types:

We have characterized the distribution of noble metals among six styles of magmatic sulfide mineralization in the Montagnais Sill Complex of the Labrador Trough in northern Québec using optical and electron microscopy combined with laser ablation-inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry trace element analysis of sulfides.
The Labrador Trough contains world class iron deposits that have been mined since 1954. W and N of Schefferville, several billion tonnes of taconite have been outlined in …
The geology of the eastern Labrador Trough has previ-ously been mapped as part of regional mapping projects (Donaldson, 1966; Frarey, 1967; Wardle, 1982) and the Howse Lake area was mapped, in detail, by Findlay et al. (1990). The first geological exploration in the Labrador Trough was conducted in the 1890s by A.P. Low who noted the
