Assessment of the Slave Geological Province's Critical Minerals Potentials
Principal Investigator: Lambiv Dzemua, Gideon
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023 2022 2021
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5793. The aim of the project is to locate areas with high potential for critical minerals mineralization. The results, will, hopefully, incentivize exploration for critical minerals and technology metals in the territory. This is particularly important now given the high demand for these commodities and the imminent closur...


Understanding the Implications of Trends in Mining Technologies on Regional Development in the Context of the Northwest Territories
Principal Investigator: Lakhani, Sabrina-Ayesha
Licensed Year(s): 2019
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.4609. This project will use two focus groups and desktop research to identify current socio-economic benefits derived from Socio-Economic Agreements (SEAs) between mine operators and the Government of the Northwest Territories and to identify emerging technologies and their associated implications for regional development a...


Whati Transmission Line Engineering and Environmental Study
Principal Investigator: Lennie-Misgeld, Janpeter
Licensed Year(s): 2013
Summary: The objectives of the study are as follows: - Perform limited geotechnical analysis to confirm assumptions on foundation type and location and routing; - Identify any archeological or cultural resources that may be impacted by the transmission line; - Conduct environmental field work e.g. wildlife sightings and documentation, plant samples, caribou migration trails; and - Use the information...


Inuvik – Tuktoyaktuk Highway 2013-2014 Geotechnical Investigations Program
Principal Investigator: Patrie, Wayne
Licensed Year(s): 2013
Summary: The Government of the Northwest Territories – Department of Transportation (DOT) proposes to conduct geotechnical investigations in the winters of 2013 and 2014. Geotechnical investigations will include drilling of boreholes, sampling and analysis of granular material collected, and installation of thermistor (temperature) cables. The geotechnical investigations are conducted to support design and...


Proposed Aklavik West Road and Bridge - Hydrotechnical and Geotechnical Field Investigations
Principal Investigator: Kors-Olthof, Rita I
Licensed Year(s): 2014 2011
Summary: The goals of the hydrotechnical research are to: - learn if there are possible problem areas due to water or ice along the proposed road; - choose the best proposed bridge location so that a new bridge won't wash out like the temporary one does; and - decide on length of bridge so that abutment locations can be chosen for later geotechnical drilling sites. The goals of the geotechnical resea...


De Beers Snap Lake Mine - 2010 Environmental Monitoring Program
Principal Investigator: McCallum, Dee
Licensed Year(s): 2021 2020 2019 2018 2017 2016 2015 2014 2012 2011 2010 2009 2008 2007 2006 2005 2004 2002 2001 2000 1999
Summary: The environmental monitoring program will cover an assessment of aquatics (benthic invertebrates, fish, water quality, plankton, and sediment quality), hydrology, geochemistry and North Pile environmental inspection & geotechnical assessments, wildlife, vegetation, air quality and archaeology. The aquatics program involves the monitoring of; water quality, sediment quality, zooplankton, phytopl...


2007 Winter Field Geotechnical Investigation Program in the Gwich'in Settlement Area
Principal Investigator: Hawkins, Jim R.
Licensed Year(s): 2007
Summary: The objective of the field program is to conduct geotechnical investigations on soil and ground conditions at the site of the proposed Inuvik Area Facility (IAF) and along the route of the all-weather road connecting the IAF to the Dempster Highway, in order to design foundations and roads, and for subsequent applications. In order to complete the fieldwork before the spring thaw, an access roa...


Mackenzie Valley Landslide Geotechnical Investigations
Principal Investigator: Wang, Baolin
Licensed Year(s): 2009 2008 2007 2006
Summary: The main objective of this project is to improve the understanding of triggering factors and slope failure mechanisms of landslides in the Mackenzie Valley. This knowledge will enable better environmental impact assessments of new infrastructure projects proposed in the region. Investigations carried out in 2006 will continue with detailed mapping of landslides. Soil sampling will also be condu...


Mackenzie Valley Landslide Geotechnical Investigations
Principal Investigator: Wang, Baolin
Licensed Year(s): 2008 2007 2006
Summary: The objective of this project is to improve understanding of triggering factors and slope failure mechanisms of landslides in the Mackenzie Valley. This knowledge will enable better environmental impact assessments of new infrastructure projects in the region. Investigations of the 2006 site will be continued. Detailed mapping of landslides and soil sampling will be done. Three to five 1m x 1...


Enhancement of Permafrost Monitoring Network and collection of baseline terrain information in Mackenzie Valley Corridor - Deh Cho Region
Principal Investigator: Smith, Sharon S
Licensed Year(s): 2006
Summary: The Geological Survey of Canada maintains a network of active layer and permafrost temperature monitoring sites in the Mackenzie region in order to document the response of permafrost conditions to climate change. Gaps exist in the network in the permafrost zones north of Norman Wells, the Mackenzie Delta region, and on shorelines and coastlines. Enhancement of the network is essential to provide ...
