Reconnaissance Study of Smoking Hills
Principal Investigator: Dunfield, Peter F
Licensed Year(s): 2013
Summary: The objective of this work is to conduct a one day reconnaissance study of the Smoking Hills area. Mineral, rock, water and soil samples will be collected. Geochemical properties and microbial communities will be analysed in the laboratory in order to characterize any potential features unique to this site that would warrant future, more detailed research. The site will be accessed by helicopt...


Stratigraphy of the Hyland Group, Selwyn Mountains
Principal Investigator: Turner, Elizabeth C
Licensed Year(s): 2013
Summary: This project seeks to understand the ancient marine environments recorded in these rocks, and thereby to interpret this poorly known, dramatic time in North America’s tectonic evolution. The areas addressed will be those that were briefly described in 1993: 1 location is in Yukon Territory (YT) and 2 are in Northwest Territories (NWT). This work will complement licensed research currently under wa...


Quaternary Geology of the Winter Lake Map Area
Principal Investigator: Kerr, Daniel E.
Licensed Year(s): 1993
Summary: The researcher will be conducting geological field work in the region defined by the NTS Winter Lake Map (No. 86A). The work will involve surveying the land features and collecting samples of the rock and sediments in order that this information can be summarized on a geological map....


Geology of Vendom Fiord (NST 49D) and Strathcona Fiord (NST 49E) map areas, Ellesmere Island
Principal Investigator: Harrison, J. Christopher
Licensed Year(s): 1993
Summary: The field program is intended to provide data in order to better understand the bedrock of the Canadian landmass as well as to provide basic information that can be used in land use studies, education, environmental impact analysis and resource evaluation. Data, measurements and samples will be collected on the different types of rocks found in the Vendom and Strathcona Fiord areas. The results w...


Paleontology and Stratigraphy of the Ordovician - Silurian Boundary on Northeastern Cornwallis Island, N.W.T.
Principal Investigator: Melchin, Michael J.
Licensed Year(s): 1992 1991 1990 1988
Summary: The Researcher and his assistants will carry out fieldwork which involves the collection of fossils (most of which are microscopic), rock samples, photographs and notes on the outcrops on northeastern Cornwallis Island. The work is to lead to a better understanding of the environmental changes brought about by changing climate....
