Petrogenesis of the Acasta Gneiss Complex: Ancient Rocks Revisited
Principal Investigator: Reimink, Jesse R
Licensed Year(s): 2014 2013 2012 2011
Summary: The present study aims to obtain information with the following objectives: 1) further describe, sample, and document field relationships and structures present in areas that were sampled and found to be significantly old (>3.8 billion years); 2) explore and sample other units which based on field relationships and mineralogy are likely to be as old or older than previously documented samples; and...

Geochemical and Mineralogical Controls on Metal Dispersal Downstream of Mineralization in the Mackenzie Mountains, Canada
Principal Investigator: Skeries, Kristina A
Licensed Year(s): 2011
Summary: The objective of this research project is to understand how metals might be weathering from rocks, and to understand where they end up and in which chemical form (the speciation). The importance is to differentiate between the metal species that weather from the rocks, the species by which they are transported, and finally, the species by which they are deposited again, if they are in fact deposit...

Geology and Mineral Potential of the Camsell Lake Area
Principal Investigator: Johnstone, Robert
Licensed Year(s): 1994 1993 1992 1991
Summary: The researcher and his team will traverse throughout the map area examining bedrock exposures and sampling. Observations may help construct a geological map showing lithology, structure and mineral occurences. Rock samples will be collected for geochemical and petrological analysis. The results of the survey will be presented in the form of poster displays, talks, reports and a map for distribu...

Tectonomagmatic Evolution of the Sverdrup Basin, Canadian Arctic Arhcipelago
Principal Investigator: Muecke, Gunter K.
Licensed Year(s): 1992 1990 1989
Summary: The researcher and his team will define the connection between the opening of the Arctic Ocean during the Cretaceous period, development of a continental margin, major crustal extension and rapid subsidence in the Sverdrup Basin, and voluminous basaltic magmatism. To achieve this, they will be investigating the field relations, petrology, mineralogy, geochemistry, and geochronology of magmatic ro...
