The report and accompanying map describe and interpret the terrain conditions across 48,000 km2 of the coast and hinterland of Hudson Bay. The surface mapping of materials was combined with a study of river exposures in order to reconstruct the preglacial and glacial evolution of the landscape, and postglacial changes in permafrost, climate, and sea level. The geological interpretation was used to locate anomalously high concentrations of minerals of economic value, including gold and uranium, assess aggregate sources, identify areas of sensitive permafrost terrain, and to predict future environmental change.

This is a discount Black and white version. Some images may be unclear, please see BCCampus website for the digital version.This book was born out of a 2014 meeting of earth science educators representing most of the universities and colleges in British Columbia, and nurtured by a widely shared frustration that many students are not thriving in courses because textbooks have become too expensive for them to buy. But the real inspiration comes from a fascination for the spectacular geology of western Canada and the many decades that the author spent exploring this region along with colleagues, students, family, and friends. My goal has been to provide an accessible and comprehensive guide to the important topics of geology, richly illustrated with examples from western Canada. Although this text is intended to complement a typical first-year course in physical geology, its contents could be applied to numerous other related courses.
