Project Description: This is a one year project designed to update the present geology of the northern part of Lac De Gras (last mapped in the 1940's). The study will involve three weeks of field work with limited helicopter support. The researchers will collaborate with P. Thompson of Thompson of the GSC (Providence Lake) and BHP-Utah, who are investigating their claims in the area.
