Principal Investigator: Knox, Bernadette
Licensed Year(s): 2023
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5525. The objective of this work is to update and increase the understanding of the geological history of this area of the north-central Slave craton, Northwest Territories. This work will be conducted mostly on foot with access along the water provided by canoe and zodiac boat. The research team will be walking the lan...

Licensed Year(s): 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5290. This project aims to develop and use computer-based methods to produce wetland maps using satellite imagery; to conduct overhead field surveys to calibrate and validate the accuracy of the produced wetland maps; Produce user friendly documents describing the wetland maps and their wetland classes throughout the Tlicho...

Licensed Year(s): 2017
Summary: The main objective of this project is to develop wetland inventory for south eastern Northwest Territories (NWT) that will be used to provide a baseline for many kinds of planning (including land use planning processes) and research in support of biodiversity conservation and sustainable management of habitat. Specific objectives are to: 1) develop and use computer-based methods to produce we...

Principal Investigator: Corriveau, Louise
Licensed Year(s): 2011 2010 2009
Summary: The objectives of the Great Bear/IOCG geoscience research and mapping project are to: • develop a modern geological, crustal architecture and exploration framework for polymetallic iron oxide-copper-gold (IOCG) deposit-type mineralizing systems in the Great Bear magmatic zone and new exploration methods for IOCG deposits in glaciated terrains; • validate deposit-type model for known mineral occu...

Principal Investigator: Bleeker, Wouter
Licensed Year(s): 2000 1999 1998 1997 1996 1995 1994
Summary: Map and describe the various rock types and assess their role in the complex geological history of the Slave Province. Fly-in / fly-out camps with small float planes to make daily traverses by foot or by boat to study the local rocks and collect small handsamples for laboratory work....

Principal Investigator: Stubley, Mark
Licensed Year(s): 1996 1995 1994 1993 1992 1991 1990
Summary: The researchers will examine, document and sample surface outcrops in the study area. The information will be recorded on a map which will summarize the geological rock-types and mineral resources of the area....

Principal Investigator: Kjarsgaard, Bruce
Licensed Year(s): 1994 1992
Summary: This will be the final field season of this bedrock mapping project, which is being done to update geological knowledge in the Lac de Gras area (which was last mapped in the 1940s). Detailed mapping, geochemical and geochronologcical studies will be used to help understand the geological evolution of this area. Mapping will be accomplished by foot and boat traverse with fixed and rotany wing sup...

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: Kerr, Daniel E.
Licensed Year(s): 1993
Summary: The researcher will be conducting geological field work in the region defined by the NTS Winter Lake Map (No. 86A). The work will involve surveying the land features and collecting samples of the rock and sediments in order that this information can be summarized on a geological map....
