RUI: Structural and Metamorphic Evolution of the Eastern Margin of the Coast Plutonic Complex East of Mt. Waddington,Southwestern British Columbia

海岸深成杂岩是一条1800公里长的白垩纪和第三纪变质和深成岩带，横跨不列颠哥伦比亚省岛状和山间超级地体的接触面。这些异地生物体要么是在白垩纪中期，要么可能是在侏罗纪。为了帮助约束海岸深成杂岩的构造演化模型，该项目将研究不列颠哥伦比亚省一带的东缘，在那里可以记录该边缘的构造和变质历史，并评估横流和逆冲断裂的相对重要性。通过提供有关变形和变质作用的时间、样式和区域程度的信息，该项目将有助于建立一个关于该带的起源和岛状地体的吸积的综合模型。

The Coast Plutonic Complex, an 1800 km long belt of Cretaceous and Tertiary metamorphic and plutonic rocks, straddles the contact between the Insular and Intermontane super terranes in British Columbia. These allochthonous bodies were accreted either during mid-Cretaceous time or possibly during the Jurassic. In order to help constrain models of the tectonic evolution of the Coast Plutonic Complex, this project will examine the eastern margin of the belt in British Columbia where the structural and metamorphic history of this margin can be documented and the relative importance of transcurrent and thrust faulting be assessed. By providing information on the timing, style and regional extent of deformation and metamorphism, the project will contribute towards a comprehensive model for the origin of the belt and accretion of the Insular terrane.
