Summary:
This project will use radioactive isotope systems, whole rock isotopic measurements, and isotope data for zircons to investigate the role Hadean (> 4 billion year (Ga) old) crust played in the genesis of the Slave craton of the Northwest Territories, Canada. Data of this nature for rocks from the best-studied locality in the Slave craton, the Acasta Gneiss Complex, show that these circa 3.8-4.02 G...

2011 Summary:
The objectives of this research project are to: 1) further describe, sample, and document field relationships and structures present in areas that were sampled and found to be significantly old (>3.8 billion years) during the 2011 field session; 2) explore and sample other units which based on field relationships and mineralogy are likely to be as old or older than previously documented samples; 3...
