NWT RESEARCH DATABASE

Principal Investigator: MacNaughton, Robert B.
Licensed Year(s): 1998 1997
Summary: Members of a field party will be transported to base camp by helicopter. Base-camp moves will also be done by helicopter. All ground work will be done on foot. Data collection involves photography of rock outcrops, measurement of stratigraphic sections using a Jacob's staff (measuring pole), and the following of key stratigraphic surfaces. Collection of rock samples is either from free-lying fl...

Summary: Two people will be transported to the field sites via helicopter from Norman Wells. All ground work is done on foot. Data collection involves photography of rock outcrops, measurement of stratigraphic sections using a tape measure, description of outcrops, and selective sampling of about 100 fist-sized rock samples using a geological hammer....

Principal Investigator: Mattner, Jorg
Licensed Year(s): 1988 1987
Summary: To reconstruct the depositional environment in as much detail as possible, of the Upper Jurassic and Lower Cretaceous sediments nowadays outcropping in the central part of the Northern Richardson Mountains....

Principal Investigator: Basinger, James F.
Licensed Year(s): 1985
Summary: To collect additional fossil plants and to better determine stratigraphy in the vicinity....

Principal Investigator: Dixon, O.A.
Licensed Year(s): 1984
Summary: To carry out a combined sedimentological-paleoecological study of surface exposures of the Devonian Ramparts reef complex. This would involve mapping, measurement and description of stratigraphic sections and collection of fossil samples for later laboratory study. This is the conclusion of work begun in 1982....
