Actually, in Nova Scotia near Halifax there is a glacial boulder or erratic of basalt which is deemed to come from about 130km away perhaps from the north or NW. Also, there are glacial striations there on the bedrock which can be used to determine the sense of the direction of flow of the ice. In New England, there are pro-glacial lakes. Both the Maritimes and New England were most likely covered by the Laurentide continental glaciation.

Katena32 [7]

Answer:

<em>Natural causes of earthquakes </em>

Explanation:

Earthquakes are triggered<em> by the rapid energy release in some of the Earth's small rocks. Energy can be released by elastic stress, gravity, chemical reactions, or even massive body motion.</em>

The release of elastic strain is the most important cause of all these, because this form of energy is the only sort that can be stored in sufficient quantities on Earth to create major disruptions. This type of energy release related earthquakes is called tectonic earthquakes.
