Hamilton Bank, Labrador margin: origin and evolution of a glaciated shelf
1976Hamilton Bank consists of a thick wedge of Mesozoic and Cenozoic sediments that was built out over a block-faulted, subsiding Precambrian crystalline basement. Subsidence was in response to the same forces that caused the opening of the Labrador Sea and the separation of Greenland and North America. The gross final relief was formed through alternating

The Continental Margin Off Labrador and Eastern Newfoundland–Morphology and Geology
Canadian Journal of Earth Sciences, 1972Seismic profiler surveys have defined the landward limit of presumed Mesozoic–Cenozoic deposits on the continental shelf off Labrador and eastern Newfoundland. Along the Labrador coast the contact of these deposits with Precambrian rocks coincides with a pronounced 'marginal channel'; off eastern Newfoundland their contact with rocks of the ...

C-band SAR observations of marginal ice zone rheology in the Labrador Sea
IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing, 1989Synthetic-aperture radar (SAR) imagery collected during the LIMEX'87 field program in the Labrador Sea is used to qualitatively interpret the deformation modes in play throughout the experiment. The ice cover exhibited two distinct rheologies separated by a clear line of shear: a nonlinear viscous outer regime, and a quasi-brittle inner regime.

U–Pb geochronology of the Nain craton on the eastern margin of the Torngat Orogen, Labrador
Canadian Journal of Earth Sciences, 1995New U–Pb geochronological results provide insight into the geological evolution of the northernmost Nain craton. A tonalitic orthogneiss, retrogressed from granulite to amphibolite facies, is interpreted to have crystallized at 2832 ± 3 Ma; zircon overgrowths, dated at 2769 ± 5 Ma, are interpreted as metamorphic in origin, whereas metamorphic monazite ...

Forty-two Cretaceous and Paleocene sand samples from offshore Labrador and onshore western Greenland were examined petrographically. The sands were found to be mineralogically and texturally immature, reflecting rapid erosion and transportation from local, high-relief source areas.

AAPG Bulletin, 1981
The continental shelf of Labrador and Newfoundland is underlain by several discrete subbasins. On the western margin of the Labrador Sea, north of the east-trending, east-plunging Cartwright arch, the continental shelf is underlain by up to 10 km of Upper Cretaceous to upper Tertiary marine clastics that constitute the Hopedale-Saglek basin.

Continental slope sedimentation adjacent to an ice margin I. Seismic facies of Labrador Slope
Geo-Marine Letters, 1992Sleeve-gun, 3.5-kHz, and 12-kHz profiles from the Labrador Slope provide the basis for an analysis of sedimentary facies, processes, and evolution of a continental slope adjacent to an ice margin. The upper slope is deeply incised by numerous canyons reflecting headward canyon branching.
