Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.4992. Surficial geology mapping and glacial history reconstruction play a crucial role in the understanding of Northern Canada. Not only are they essential to drift prospecting, a vital component of the northern mineral exploration, but they also support infrastructure development, help characterize terrain sensitivity and ...

Summary: The project is aimed at obtaining a better understanding of the bedrock geology and mineral potential of the South Bear area. Southern Bear project area is in the Bear Structural Province of the Northwest Territories centred approximately 240 km north-northwest of Yellowknife. Geological data on the area is sparse and limited to 1:250 000 regional mapping by the Geological Survey of Canada (GSC...

Principal Investigator: Ootes, Luke
Licensed Year(s): 2004 2003
Summary: The objective of this mapping project is to define the structural, metamorphic, lithological and geochemical bedrock characteristics of the area, and provide this information in an updated geological database. This is the second year of a two-year projec...

Summary: Snare River project is in the Slave Structural Province of the Northwest Territories. Geological data on the area is sparse and poorly understood. This mapping project will define the structural, metamorphic, lithological and geochemical bedrock characteristics of area, providing an up-dated geological data base. As well, examination of the tectonometamorphic evolution of part of the area will ...

Principal Investigator: Pehrsson, Sally J
Licensed Year(s): 1996 1995 1994
Summary: This will be the final summer of work for this phase of mapping in Indin Lake. The mapping data (including structural, petrological, geochemical &geochronological) will enable a detailed geological history of the project area to be constructed. This will include timing of major events, including volcanism, plutonism and sedimentation, and subsequent deformation. The results will be presented in...

Principal Investigator: Bleeker, Wouter
Licensed Year(s): 2000 1999 1998 1997 1996 1995 1994
Summary: The researchers will preform daily geological traverses by foot and by boat with occassional fixed wing support. Proposed products of this project includes geological compilation maps, a collection of geochemical, geochronological, petrological and structural rock samples and computerized data....

Principal Investigator: Thompson, Peter H.
Licensed Year(s): 1994 1992
Summary: This is the concluding summer of a regional scale bedrock mapping project, with associated geochronology sampling. The researcher will accomplish this by boat, foot and occasional fixed wing and periodic helicopter support. All the data will be digitally entered for computer map compilation and generation....
