Summary: The objective of this research is to take specific samples for the completion of a remedial action plan and risk assessment for the Five Mine Sites. The field component of the project will be conducted over a two day period. Limited soil and mine tailing samples from the most contaminated areas of the site will be taken. These areas were previously identified in past environmental site asses...

Summary: In view of Peregrine Diamonds Ltd.’s move to advance the DO-27 kimberlite pipe of the WO Diamond Project to the pre-feasibility assessment phase, this project is proposed to collect baseline data that would contribute to an Environmental Assessment in subsequent years. Gartner Lee Ltd has been contracted to undertake field sampling, which will consist of examining surface water quality; hydrology;...

Principal Investigator: Hoos, Rick
Licensed Year(s): 2006
Summary: The objective is to obtain sufficient baseline data to develop a lead and zinc mine adjacent to the old Pine Point property. The owl survey to identify species presence and breeding territories in the vicinity of the study area will include an evening broadcast-call program that will commence 0.5 hours after sundown to 0.5 hours before sunrise in April and May. This owl survey will target the Bor...

Principal Investigator: Matthews, Steven
Licensed Year(s): 1991
Summary: The project will evaluate airborne RADAR data as well as Landsat TM and SPOT satellite data to distinguish vegetation cover types of the tundra near Baker Lake. Detailed vegetation surveys will be carried out in the field. The data will be used to classify vegetation cover types and in accuracy assessment. Wildlife habitat types will be based on the resultant classification and produced as mapped ...
