Summary:
This year’s objective is to complete the work at the selected locations by obtaining a full suite of rock samples for analysis, photograph each location, and measure natural radiation.
At each site, the rock exposure will be photographed in detail. Natural radiation will be measured every half meter using a sensor without major disturbance of the rock face. At each location, rock samples weigh...

Summary:
To characterize the source rock potential of Devonian to Cretaceous age shales in the southern Peel Plateau.
At each site, the rock exposure will be described in detail and photographed. Natural radiation will be measured every meter using a sensor. A small amount of rock (equivalent to size of a fist) will be sampled every meter. Additional samples of 1-2 kg may be collected for dating the age...
