The Dubawnt Super Group
chercheur principal: Peterson, Tony D.
Année(s) de permis: 1994
Résumé: Collection of rock samples and subsequent study by examination of thin sections, geochemical analyses, and geological mapping. Work in the field is conducted by boat and foot traversing with some support by aircraft. This will be done in order to determine the geological history of Archean crystalline rocks....


Thermal and tectonic history of the Sverdrup Basin and Franklinian Mobile Belt, Canadian Arctic Archipelago
chercheur principal: Arne, Dennis C.
Année(s) de permis: 1994
Résumé: Rock samples will be collected in order to examine their structure and composition. Tests conducted on these samples will provide information about how these rocks were formed and the maximum temperatures to which these rocks were heated. These tests, conducted at Dalhousie University, will help to determine the geological history of the Canadian Arctic Archipelago....


Stratigraphy and sedimentology of Carboniferous to Triassic strata.
chercheur principal: Dixon, James
Année(s) de permis: 1996 1994 1993 1992 1991
Résumé: This ongoing study involves identifying, measuring and sampling the different types of rock found at selected sites. Most of the work will be conducted using a helicopter based out of Inuvik, with visits made to the sites on a daily basis. Temporary camps for 1-2 nights will be set up if sites require more than one day of work. The data collected will be used to develop a history of the area's ...


Upper Silurian reef mounds at the Douro-Devon Island formational boundary, Devon and southwestern Ellesmere Islands
chercheur principal: Dixon, O.A.
Année(s) de permis: 1993 1992 1990 1988
Résumé: In the Arctic Islands, we are studying rocks and the fossils found within these rocks that were formed more than 400 million years ago in warm tropical seas. This study is expected to help in describing the temperatures, climate and water depths of these ancient seas. We are also studying the types of fossil corals and sponge-like animals that are not present in our seas today....


Precambrian Shield of the Boothia Uplift
chercheur principal: Frisch, Thomas
Année(s) de permis: 1992
Résumé: Large scale faults and folds are exposed on the shores of Prince of Wales Island. The rocks and structures in this region will be examined to help resolve the geological history of the uplift....


Geology of the Wijinnedi Lake Map Area, District of Mackenzie
chercheur principal: Henderson, John B.
Année(s) de permis: 1992
Résumé: The research will collect information to produce maps which outline the distribution of various rock types, attempting to show their relationship to each other in order to understand their history, how they orignially formed and what has happened to them between then and now. This data will also assist in the search for mineral deposits in the study area....


Volcanic Studies in the Circum-Ungava Belt
chercheur principal: Baragar, Robert
Année(s) de permis: 1991
Résumé: The Researchers will survey and samples exposures of suspected carbonatites discovered after field work in 1985....
