Non-renewable resource assessment (initial field work phase, Sahyoue)
chercheur principal: Gal, Leonard
Année(s) de permis: 2003 2002
Résumé: The objective of the fieldwork is to further assess the non-renewable resource potential (NRA) of the area, as a follow-up to the completed Phase 1 NRA which was based upon the review of existing data. This assessment is being carried out as part of the...


Examination of selected Kamik formation outcroppings in the Richardson Mountains
chercheur principal: Prost, Gary
Année(s) de permis: 2004 2002
Résumé: The general purpose of the trip is to examine sites where the Kamik formation is at the surface and to collect rock samples. The site visits are important to work relating to the development of Conoco's interest at Parsons Lake in the Inuvialuiit Settlem...


Testing of Surface Geophysical Techniques for the Detection of Ice-bonded Permafrost
chercheur principal: Good, Ron
Année(s) de permis: 2002
Résumé: This research is part of an ongoing program to develop geophysical standards for pipeline route surveying. This line has been chosen because past shallow drilling programs on this line have provided us with a great deal of ground truth, geology, temperat...


Structural Geology of the Jackson Lake Formation.
chercheur principal: Martel, Edith
Année(s) de permis: 2001
Résumé: The research team will be transported from Yellowknife by aircraft, and will travel by small boat in the field. Samples (fist-sized chunks of rock) will be collected with a hammer, and returned to the laboratory for detailed physical and chemical analysis. Field camps will be low impact, and will be occupied by only 2 persons at a time. All human waste will be buried, all non-burnable garbage w...


Permafrost investigations in western arctic Canada
chercheur principal: Burn, Chris R
Année(s) de permis: 2022 2021 2020 2019 2018 2017 2016 2015 2014 2013 2012 2011 2010 2009 2008 2007 2006 2005 2004 2003 2002 2001 2000 1999 1998
Résumé: Changes in the ground due to uplift, associated with the growth of a pingo, and sideways movements due to the growth of ice wedges, will be measured. Air, ground, and lake water temperatures will be measured, in order to find out how the ground is responding to climatic variation. The reseach team will also return to Paulatuk, to continue studies Dr. Mackay began there 50 years ago. Travel to s...


Thematic Structural, Stratigraphic and Geochronologic Studies of the Slave Structural Province.
chercheur principal: Bleeker, Wouter
Année(s) de permis: 2000 1999 1998 1997 1996 1995 1994
Résumé: The objective of this study is to improve the geological understanding of the Slave Geological Province in general and specific key areas in more detail (eg. areas northeast of Yellowknife known as the Sleepy Dragon Complex, the Acasta Gneiss Complex, the Courageous Lake area, etc.). Various rock types will be mapped and described and their role in the complex geological history of the Slave Prov...


Telesiesmic Studies in the Lac de Gras Area
chercheur principal: Snyder, David B
Année(s) de permis: 2007 2003 2000 1999
Résumé: The purpose of this study is to investigate the structure and composition of the Earth's crust and upper portion of the earth's crust and upper mantle to depths greater than 200km from sites in the Lac de Gras area. Seismometers will be deployed within two existent mine camps for at least one year. These sensors will record distant earthquakes. Well established technology will be used and once dep...


Development of shallow seismic techniques to delineate gas hydrate deposits
chercheur principal: Good, Ron
Année(s) de permis: 1999
Résumé: The survey will be carried out along two lines near the Mallik L-38 drill site, with phones at 3 m spacings. A number of energy sources will be tried. These will include an 8 gauge "Buffalo" gun, an elastic accelerated weight drop, a mini-vib system, and a hammer and plate. The Buffalo gun will require holes drilled every 3 m, its 500 grain 8 gauge shells are fired at 1 metre depth and have no im...


Geological Mapping 95 C/8 - South Kotaneelee Anticline and 95 B/5 and 12.
chercheur principal: Currie, Lisel
Année(s) de permis: 1997
Résumé: The purpose of the study is to conduct standard 1:50 000 geological mapping as per mandate of the Geological Survey of Canada. This will be in the central Kotaneelee Range. This will involve daily long distance traverse to describe the rocks across the area. Most parts of the area will be visited only once. The research team will be dropped off and picked up by helicopter. During the day they ...


Volcanological and Sedimentological Evolution of the Slave Province along the Beniah Lk. Fault
chercheur principal: Corcoran, Patricia
Année(s) de permis: 1997
Résumé: Research involves mapping and sampling of rocks for geological study. Equipment and all crew members will be transported to and removed from base camps by float plane (twin or turbine otter). A zodiac with 10-20 hsp motors will be used to travel within the study area. Rock samples (5-15 lbs) will be collected, small and large-scale maps will be compiled. The study will provide information about...
