Lichen Sampling Program - Diavik
Principal Investigator: Bourn, Stephen
Licensed Year(s): 2013 2010 2005
Summary: The goal of this study is to determine whether dust generated from mining activities is causing a measurable change in dust deposition to and/or metals uptake in lichen closer to and further from the mine. If a significant difference in uptake is noted closer to versus further from the mine, a health risk assessment to caribou may be conducted to determine risks associated with consumption of vege...
