Discusses the regional metamorphic zones in Nova Scotia, Canada, and the geological processes that caused them to form. Regional metamorphism happens deep within the Earth's crust and eventually, the buried rocks are exposed, usually due to the movement of convergent plate boundaries and the erosion of mountains. Includes an exercise on Scottish metamorphic zones.
