Geology and Structure of Prince Patrick and Adjacent Islands
Principal Investigator: Harrison, J. Christopher
Licensed Year(s): 1992 1991
Summary: A continuing project, the researchers will define the nature of the solid earth that makes up the bedrock beneath the Arctic Islands. This involves the examination of existing maps and air-photographs, the identification of rock types in the field, the measurement of the orientation of rock layers and similar features with a surveyor's hand held compass and the collection of small samples for addi...

Principal Investigator: Gebert, James
Licensed Year(s): 1992 1991 1990
Summary: The Researchers will carry out geological bedrock mapping of a portion of an ancient volcanic belt. The purpose of the project is to produce a 1:15,000 scale geology map of the study area....


A Geological Study of the Origin of the Nastapoka Arc, East Coast of Hudson Bay
Principal Investigator: Budkewitsch, Paul
Licensed Year(s): 1990
Summary: The Researcher will investigate the origin of the arcuate embayment along the east coast of Hudson Bay from Cape Jones to Inujjuaq. The brittle fractures and faults in the bedrock surrounding the Nastapoka Arc will be examined from LANDSAT satellite imagery. Some features will be examined in the field to determine their origin and relationship (if any) to the tectonic events which produced the cir...
