Objective(s): To determine the mineral potential of the Kaminak Lake area by bedrock mapping; to stimulate industrial activity in the area; to increase the geological knowledge of the area.
Project Description: In this research, the Rankin-Ennadai Greenstone Belt located near Kaminak Lake will be mapped by examining and collecting rocks of the area. The information collected on this survey will be transferred onto a map. Rock types and mineral showings will be plotted on the map and related to geological features of the area.
