Principal Investigator: Irwin, Doug
Licensed Year(s): 1994 1993
Summary: 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....

Principal Investigator: KERR, DAN
Licensed Year(s): 1994
Summary: Conduct mapping of surficial deposits based on airphoto interpretation and fieldwork. Dig small holes to obtain soil samples. Samples will be analyzed to determine their chemical composition....

Principal Investigator: Hogarth, D.D.
Licensed Year(s): 1994 1992 1991
Summary: A geological map will be made and specimens of both "ores" and surrounding rock will be collected at Kodlunarn Island and Beare Sound. The rocks will be analyzed for normal rock-forming constituents and precious/platinum metals. Minerals will be analyzed by microprobe. The researcher will do this in order to detrmine if the Beare Sound ores belong to the same suite of metals as the Kodlunarn Is...

Principal Investigator: Pollard, Wayne H
Licensed Year(s): 1994 1992 1991 1990 1988
Summary: Fieldwork consists of a combination of mapping surface materials and landforms and where possible retrieving shells from raised marine deposits to determine the date of emergence and the temperature conditions of the oceans when the shell was formed. Observations of ice and icy sediments will also be made. By collecting this data the researchers will be able to see broad patterns in the landscape...

Principal Investigator: Thompson, Peter H.
Licensed Year(s): 1994 1992
Summary: This is the concluding summer of a regional scale bedrock mapping project, with associated geochronology sampling. The researcher will accomplish this by boat, foot and occasional fixed wing and periodic helicopter support. All the data will be digitally entered for computer map compilation and generation....

Principal Investigator: Lambert, M.B.
Licensed Year(s): 1994
Summary: The researcher will conduct detailed mapping of the area. The researcher will traverse by foot and a small boat on the river systems. In the laboratory, the chemistry and radiometric age of the volcanic rocks units will be examined in order to determine the relationship of the mineral deposits to this volcano....

Principal Investigator: Gebert, James
Licensed Year(s): 1992 1991 1990
Summary: The Researcher will produce a map of the area showing rock types, geological structure and mineralization....

Principal Investigator: Johnstone, Robert
Licensed Year(s): 1990
Summary: The Researcher and his assistant will conduct daily foot traverses out of a tent camp visiting bedrock exposures and recording lithological, structural and mineralogical information. Hand specimens will be taken to Yellowknife for lithological and geochemical analysis....

Principal Investigator: Morgan, James P.
Licensed Year(s): 1990
Summary: Mr. Morgan will produce maps showing the location and characteristics of economic mineral occurences and objects such as drill holes and trenches. These will be cross-indexed to published reports on economic geology....

Principal Investigator: Venance, Katherine
Licensed Year(s): 1990
Summary: The researcher will map, in detail, mineral assemblages and the pattern of metamorphism of the field area....
