Résumé: The objectives of this research project are to identify some proximal (close) and distal (at a distance) mineralogical and chemical elements that will indicate that rocks in a sedimentary basin are likely or not to be rich in metals; and to understand how metals were emplaced in rocks, and how they disperse once the rocks are weathered. This has implications for the land, environment and mineral i...

Résumé: This research study is designed to investigate the processes related to water quality and quantity (collected at different scales) draining from country rock stockpiles that are located in areas of continuous permafrost. The quality of water draining from a country rock stockpile is determined by the combined effects of oxygen transport in the air phase, biogeochemical processes that control miner...

Résumé: With increasing activity at the Nechalacho Rare Earth Element Deposit a better geological understanding of the setting of the mineral deposit is required. This study is fundamentally concerned with how and why the deposit exists. This is achieved by studying the entire Blachford Lake intrusive suite (>300 km2), the igneous system which generated the deposit. From this, a petrogenetic framework wil...

Résumé: The objectives of the Great Bear/IOCG geoscience research and mapping project are to: • develop a modern geological, crustal architecture and exploration framework for polymetallic iron oxide-copper-gold (IOCG) deposit-type mineralizing systems in the Great Bear magmatic zone and new exploration methods for IOCG deposits in glaciated terrains; • validate deposit-type model for known mineral occu...

Résumé: The purpose of this project is to study the mobility, speciation, and mineralogical and geochemical controls on antimony (Sb) and arsenic (As) originating from the Giant Mine. This research could aid in designing reclamation plans, resolving the relation between Sb and benthic diversity and identifying threats to the Great Slave Lake ecosystem. Understanding the movement and speciation of As and S...

Résumé: The Flybye Springs are unique in that they precipitate a mineral called barite and are weakly radioactive. The hydrology of the springs was examined by researchers in 1979, but the deposits of barite were not, nor was the microbiology of the spring flow...

Résumé: Southern Bear project area is centred approximately 300 km north-northwest of Yellowknife. Geological data on the area is sparse; the geology of the area is poorly understood and no modern geoscience data sets are available. This mapping project will d...

chercheur principal: Falck, Hendrik
Année(s) de permis: 2003 2002
Résumé: The purpose of this project is to develop and compile an inventory, and improve the understanding of mineral deposits related to granite intrusions in the western Northwest Territories. Understanding the concentrations of metals in the environment is im...
