Neoproterozoic stratigraphy, Mackenzie Mountains II
Principal Investigator: Turner, Elizabeth C
Licensed Year(s): 2019
Summary: The objective of this research is to addresses the history of Earth-surface environments between 1 billion and 700 million years ago. The objective for 2019 is to complete a sample suite used by a Master of Science student. Each base-camp of 2 people will be deployed by helicopter, and after that, all work will be done on foot, with no motorised equipment. Working on mountainside exposures, the...


Stratigraphy of the Misty Creek Embayment
Principal Investigator: Turner, Elizabeth C
Licensed Year(s): 2013 2012
Summary: This is a Masters of Science research project aimed at understanding the geological evolution of a deep-marine environment that existed in the northern Mackenzie Mountains between 500 and 450 million years ago. The project team will establish small 2-3 person camps on or near a mountainside where we already know, based on previous work, that the rocks they are interested in will be exposed. Eac...


Examination and Dating of 4.0-2.9 Billion Year Old Rocks in the Slave and Wopmay Geological Provinces of the Canadian Shield
Principal Investigator: Ketchum, John
Licensed Year(s): 2001
Summary: During the proposed study, transportation of the research team to the field will be by fixed-wing float plane from Yellowknife. From the base camp at Grant Lake, the research team will examine the study area immediately to the east on foot and by inflatable boat. Rock samples up to 20 kg (45 lbs) will be collected for age dating. It is anticipated that only 4-5 samples will be collected for dating...
