Generalized Surficial Geology

This layer contains polygon features that represent the generalized surficial geology of New Brunswick. Unconsolidated materials occurring over bedrock, are classified according to physical attributes and genesis, and categorized into map units. This layer is intended to be used at small scales (e.g., provincial scale). It is an update of the 2002 Generalized Surficial Geology Map of New Brunswick, the updates reflect re-interpretation of the geology based on additional field investigations.
