The Makkovik Province: extension of the Ketilidian Mobile Belt in mainland North America

Abstract: The Makkovik Province of Labrador represents the extension of the Ketilidian Mobile Belt of south Greenland into mainland North America; it exhibits a threefold division into a foreland region, a fold-and-thrust belt, and an interior magmatic zone. The Kaipokok Domain is dominated by Archaean basement rocks that form an extension of the North Atlantic Craton, but Proterozoic reworking is recorded by the reorientation of a c . 2230 Ma dyke swarm. Supracrustal rock… Show more

“…1650 Ma in the Makkovik Province are temporally unrelated to Makkovikian orogenesis and likely reflect magmatism associated with the younger Labrador orogen to the south (Kerr et al 1992). Structural and Nd isotopic data indicate that the Aillik domain represents an allochthonous, northwestvergent, Paleoproterozoic fold-thrust belt that overlies the southernmost limit of buried Arckean crust (Kerr and Fryer 1993;Kerr et al 1996). Southeast of the Aillik domain, the Cape Harrison domain consists of foliated to massive plutons emplaced between 1840 and 1650 Ma (Kerr et al 1992), with lesser volumes of supracrustal rock (Upper Aillik Group?)…”
