2002
Summary:
The purpose of this project is to develop exploration guidelines for emeralds in the NWT. We propose to spend July 2002 in the Lened area, where we will produce detailed geological maps and collect samples for laboratory analysis (whole-rock chemistry, e...

2001
Summary:
All research to be conducted, either underground or on the surface, will be carried out at the Giant and Con mine sites in Yellowknife. Data on the origination of structural features (faults, foliations, folds, ect.) will be measured with a compass clinometer. Samples (< 10cm in diameter) will be taken of certain rock types which display interesting small scale structures....

Summary:
Tthe objective of this study is to continue research examining the hydrological and energy budget of small arctic esker lake basin during the spring melt period. The intent of this research is to understand the relationship between the energy budget and changes in soil moisture, rates of evapotranspiration, and changes in water discharge from a small tundra basin underlain by permafrost. Transpo...

199519941993199219911990 Summary:
The researchers will examine, document, and sample surface outcrops in the study area. The information will be recorded on a map which will summarize the geological rock-types and mineral resources of the area. The researchers will camp at two separate sites during the field season. The work will consist primarily of daily walks from wherever they can get their inflatable boat. Airplane suppor...

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....

1992 Summary:
This year's field work will complete the geological mapping exercise that was started in 1992. The researcher will document, measure and collect various types of rocks found in the area in order to determine the distribution of the various rock types and to under- stand how they originally formed. Most of these rocks are among the oldest known in Canada, with some being over 2.5 billion years ol...
Principal Investigator:Henderson, John B. Licensed Year(s):
1992
Summary:
The research will collect information to produce maps which outline the distribution of various rock types, attempting to show their relationship to each other in order to understand their history, how they orignially formed and what has happened to them between then and now. This data will also assist in the search for mineral deposits in the study area....

Summary:
The Researcher and his assistant will carry out a resource evaluation. A national park has been proposed for the Bluenose Lake area. Before land may be set aside as a park reserve, an assessment of non-renewable (oil, gas, minerals) resource potential is required....
