The Search for Early Fossil Sharks in Lower Devonian rocks of the Mackenzie Mountains, NWT
Principal Investigator: Wilson, Mark V.H.
Licensed Year(s): 2013 1998 1996 1990
Summary: The 2 objectives of this research project are: 1) to recover some of the oldest-known body fossils of sharks and their relatives as well as other associated fossils. The anatomy of the fossil species will be described in detail and published in international journals. These fossils will allow identification of fragments of related species found at other sites worldwide, and will allow the researc...

Principal Investigator: Morgan, Alan
Licensed Year(s): 1990
Summary: The Researcher and team will take samples of organic sediments and process them to remove insect and plant fossils. Identification of these fossils will provide the basis for a paleoenvironmental analysis by comparing the fossil organisms to modern ones....
