Popis:	Based on observations in northern Quebec and Belgium, the author infers that lithalsas in northern Quebec are modern analogues of the enclosed and ramparted depressions that occur on the Hautes Fagnes plateau, Belgium. It is hypothesised that the growth of these lithalsas occurs not only by vertical heave associated with ice segregation within mineral material but also by lateral frost thrusting.
