Summary: Southern Bear project area is centred approximately 240 km north-northwest of Yellowknife. Geological data on the area is sparse; the geology of the area is poorly understood and no modern geoscience data sets are available. This mapping project will d...

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...

Licensed Year(s): 2000
Summary: A field camp will be flown out from Yellowknife in early June 2000. A tent camp will be established and researchers will made daily walks, noting the details of the rocks they are walking on. Notes will be recorded in a computer database. At times 1-5kg samples of rocks will be taken for further examination in a laboratory giving information on the composition of the rock, what has happened to ...

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: Hrabi, Blair
Licensed Year(s): 1994
Summary: This will be the final summer of field work for this project. The detailed mapping data in combination with geochemistry will enable the researcher to gie a detailed geological history of the area, including timing of certain geological events (age of volcanism and granite plutons) as well as a deformational history....

Principal Investigator: Johnstone, Robert
Licensed Year(s): 1994 1993 1992 1991
Summary: The researcher and his team will traverse throughout the map area examining bedrock exposures and sampling. Observations may help construct a geological map showing lithology, structure and mineral occurences. Rock samples will be collected for geochemical and petrological analysis. The results of the survey will be presented in the form of poster displays, talks, reports and a map for distribu...
