Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Okay, so this is the difference \Nbetween uh, glacial till,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,which is unstratified,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and non-glacial till.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So, hopefully you can see \Nthat this uh, gravel here
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,is well-stratified.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,There are a lot of \Nsedimentary features here.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Um, you can see graded bedding.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,You can also see cross bedding.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Maybe I can just sort of zoom in on that.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So there's cross bedding right there.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Very coarse uh, cross bedding.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,However, the stratification \Nor the horizontal layering,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the general horizontal here,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,indicates that this is not glacial gravel.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Even though it's approximately \Nthe correct size
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and sorting distribution.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The presence of sedimentary features
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,as well as uh, the stratification,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that's the horizontal layering,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,indicated as not glacial gravel.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Okay. I'll try and show you\Nglacial gravel a little later.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So this is uh, glacial till.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,It is gravel that is deposited \Nby a glacier.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Um, and the identifying\Ncharacteristics of it
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,is well-rounded clasts,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,however they're not\Nreally really well-rounded.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,They are definitely rounded \Nto some extent.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Um, oftentimes there are striations \Non each individual clast,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,maybe I can show you that later.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Um, those are scratches that are produced
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,when gravel bounces or scrapes against
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,other pieces of gravel or the bedrock.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And the other identifying characteristic
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,is that the gravel itself \Nis unstratified.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,There is no layering, \Nno horizontal stratification.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Um, and there really are \Nno sedimentary features here,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,other than the lack \Nof sedimentary features,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,which indicates that \Nit was deposited by a glacier.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Now hopefully you'll be able to see,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,if it'll focus on that,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the scratches \Non the surface of this clast.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Those parallel scratches \Nare glacial striations,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,which are present on a clast.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,It's stuck in there pretty hard. Argghh.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,It won't come out.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And in addition to the lack of uh, \Nsedimentary features,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,um, one of the characteristics \Nthat you always look for
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,is a very very poor degree of sorting
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,in terms of clast size.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And so, maybe I can \Nzoom in on that a little bit.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,You've got clasts of all different, \Nuh, sizes.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Very poorly distributed.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I suppose even down to these sizes,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,which have fallen down \Nfrom the cliff face, I suppose,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the gravel face anyways.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Very poor sorting.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Okay. Since we're talking about till,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I thought I'd show you \Nwhat happens when till, um,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,becomes a rock, when it becomes \Nconsolidated or indurated.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,This is called tillite, which is uh,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the rock, I suppose, from glacial till, \Na conglomerate.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,This one is very old.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,It is on the side of \Nthe Trans Canada, here. [cars going by]
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,As you can tell by the traffic.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And it is south of\NWawa in Ontario, Canada.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,[traffic in background]
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,This particular crop has been \Nhighly metamorphosed,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,so these in the Canadian shield.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Um, so strongly metamorphosed.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And this tillite is uh, \Nweathering very rapidly
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,as a result of the intense metamorphism,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,which has caused cracks and fractures
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,which increase surface area, of course,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and cause weathering to accelerate.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,[traffic in background]
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Now realize I'm looking at a shadow here,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but hopefully you can see \Nthat the clasts are well-rounded.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Very poorly sorted, \Nin terms of size distribution.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And are not layered. \NThey are unstratified.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I just thought you might want to see \Nwhat's on the other side of the road.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,That is Lake Superior,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,about an hour south of Wawa, Ontario.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Pretty big lake, eh? \NKind of looks like the ocean.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,You can't see the other side \Nof Lake Superior,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,even though we're way the heck up \Non the roadside.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,There you can see down to the beach.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Alright, that's it. Bye for now.
