GEOL/ENGO Field School
The 2nd year Geology Field School was taught in April this year and we had a wonderful time in cold and sunny weather. Students learned from a variety of instructors in the EES department during a week in Wolfville, with the first three days joint with the ENVS Field School. In this week they learned about making geological mapping and cross sections, and completed several exercises in the Valley. Students then spent a week on the Northumberland Strait mapping rocks from Proterozoic granite to Carboniferous carbonates. Looking forward to next year!
