Abstract: | This openly available virtual field trip (VFT) focuses on the Huronian rocks at Whitefish Falls, near Manitoulin Island, Ontario. Here, we examine a rock record spanning more than 2 billion years of Earth’s history. This multimedia VFT combines 3D imagery, georeferenced data on integrated maps, and multi-scale imagery (outcrop plus thin section images). The Whitefish Falls VFT comprises 5 parts, each focusing on a slightly different topic. The following topics are introduced: the regional geological setting, key lithologies, concepts of geological field mapping, stratigraphic analysis of outcrops, and the identification, documentation, and interpretation of geological structures in the field. Funded by the McMaster University OER Grant 2020-21. |
