Similar rocks also occur north of Guet Point on southern Isle Madame, but most of the Cap Auguet-Guet Point area consists of muscovite-biotite schist and lower grade muscovite-biotite phyllonite. Despite the shallow crustal level at which deformation occurred, early ductile shearing in the Waite zone generated phyllonite from Fredericton belt pelite and psammite (Ludman 1998) and converted the massive Deblois and Bottle Lake granites to strongly foliated granite, s-c mylonite, and interlayered mylonite and ultramylonite (Wang and Ludman 1999; Wang et al. |
