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...


Biostratigraphy and sedimentology of Middle Cambrian deep-water deposits (Rockslide Formation), Mackenzie Mountains
Principal Investigator: Pratt, Brian R.
Licensed Year(s): 2012 2002 2000 1998
Summary: The researcher will study half a billion year old rocks in the Mackenzie Mountains, chartering a helicopter from Watson Lake to install and move light-weight camps and bring back samples. The strata of interest are exposed on mountain sides in remote are...


Geology of Cretaceous and Tertiary Strata, Bylot Island, Northwest Territories
Principal Investigator: Burden, Elliott
Licensed Year(s): 1991 1990 1988 1987
Summary: The Researcher and associate will collect samples of shale and sandstone from cliffs. They will be taken to Memorial University to be analysed for their remnant magnetization. This research applies in regional correlation studies of marine and terrestrial strata and in site specific studies of the geologic development of this part of the Arctic....
