Objective(s): To study the carbonate rocks of the Allen Bay Formation (Ordovician and Silurian in age) on Cornwallis and Griffith Islands by mapping and collecting different rock and fossil types. This will enable the interpretation of the physical setting or environment in which these rocks were deposited, some 450 million years ago.
