Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5127. The objective of the proposed studies is to implement the approved environmental monitoring and management plans to monitor any potential environmental effects from the mining activities at the Gahcho Kue Mine. The proposed studies will include the collection of air quality, geochemistry, hydrology, water and sedi...


Ekati Engineering and Environmental Monitoring Programs
Principal Investigator: Pacholski, Laura J
Licensed Year(s): 2020
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.4671. The main objectives of the field work for 2020 will be: 1) to determine if the Ekati Diamond Mine is having an effect on the surrounding aquatic environment, wildlife, and air quality; and 2) to provide baseline data for areas where mine development may occur in the future. In winter, water samples will be collect...


2011 Baseline Studies for Avalon Rare Metals Inc. Proposed Thor Lake Rare Earth Element Project - Surface Water Hydrology and Climate
Principal Investigator: Lawson, Nick
Licensed Year(s): 2011 2010 2009
Summary: The goal of the 2011 Surface Water Hydrology & Climate program at Thor Lake is to collect additional data that describes the existing surface water and climate conditions at the Thor Lake Property. This information is required for continued baseline monitoring, environmental assessments and water management plans for the area. Data obtained will help determine a quantitative description of the ann...


2008-2010 Baseline Studies for Avalon Ventures Ltd. Proposed Thor Lake Rare Earth Metals Project-Fisheries Component
Principal Investigator: Lawson, Nick
Licensed Year(s): 2010 2009 2008
Summary: The fisheries portion of this baseline program has three primary objectives: to identify the fish species composition in a subset of the lakes and streams near the Thor Lake project area, to identify existing fish habitat in those lakes and streams, and to measure the current levels of mercury, rare earth elements and other trace elements in fish tissues. A secondary objective of the program is to...


2008-2010 Baseline Studies for Avalon Ventures Ltd. Proposed Thor Lake Rare Earth Metals Project - Aquatics Component
Principal Investigator: Lawson, Nick
Licensed Year(s): 2012 2011 2010 2009 2008
Summary: The objectives of this project are to characterize the baseline water and sediment quality within the Thor Lake area, and to characterize the baseline aquatic community through the collection of phytoplankton, zooplankton and benthic invertebrates. Water, sediment and aquatic organisms will be collected from 20 stations within the Thor Lake area. Most stations will be accessed by ATV and/or bo...


2008-2010 Baseline Studies for Avalon Ventures Ltd. Proposed Thor Lake Rare Earth Metals Project - Vegetation Component
Principal Investigator: Lennie-Misgeld, Peter
Licensed Year(s): 2009
Summary: The objectives of this study are to: - Develop vegetation classification maps for local and regional study areas around the Thor Lake project. This new mapping can be used to identify or assist in the location of sensitive or ecologically important ecosystems, culturally important plants, rare plants and rare ecosystems, and will be the basis for wildlife habitat availability mapping. - Conduct...


2008-2010 Baseline Studies for Avalon Ventures Ltd. Proposed Thor Lake Rare Earth Metals Project - Soils, Terrain and Permafrost Component
Principal Investigator: Lennie-Misgeld, Peter
Licensed Year(s): 2009 2008
Summary: Soil samples will be taken from representative sites in order to complete soil reclamation suitability assessment. Surficial sediments and soils will be described at each pit. In addition, notes will be taken on vegetation, drainage and terrain features, etc. A permafrost survey will consist of drilling shallow holes (<3 m) to determine permafrost conditions. Shallow permafrost drilling will be...


2009 Baseline Studies for Avalon Ventures Ltd. Proposed Thor Lake Rare Earth Metals Project – Groundwater Hydrology and Hydrogeology
Principal Investigator: Lennie-Misgeld, Peter
Licensed Year(s): 2009
Summary: The baseline study is being conducted to aid Avalon Ventures in assessing potential environmental effects of its activities and having adequate environmental information to support filing of regulatory applications in the future. Two years of data collection is important for obtaining baseline ground water hydrology and quality data where seasonal changes in groundwater levels, recharge and discha...


Gahcho Kue Project - Fisheries Baseline Studies
Principal Investigator: Bradley, Kourtney
Licensed Year(s): 2007 2004 2001 2000
Summary: The overall objective of this project is to collect additional fisheries information from Kennady Lake, the surrounding watershed and from “Control Lake” in the adjacent watershed for use in the environmental assessment of the De Beers Canada Inc. proposed Gahcho Kué Project. The studies that have been planned for 2007 include sampling for peamouth to determine whether it is present in the area...
