Objective(s): To conduct a detailed bedrock mapping study with associated geochemistry and geochronology sampling in order to give a detailed geological history of the Indin Lake area. This will include the timing of certain geological events (age of volcanism and granite plutons) as well as deformational history.
Project Description: This will be the researcher's concluding summer for this project. The detailed mapping data (structural, petrological) in combination with the geochemical and geochronological sampling will be accomplished by foot and boat traverses with occasional fixed and rotary wing support. All data will be entered digitally for computer map compilation.
