Exploration Geochemistry of Gold, Slave Province, NWT
Principal Investigator: Fletcher, W.K.
Licensed Year(s): 1992
Summary: The research will involve the collection of soil, lake sediments and waters. Soil and lake sediments will be sieved to give different size fractions (sand, silt, clay, etc.) and each fraction analyzed for gold to determine which size fraction is best to use in gold exploration....


International Cryosol Tour
Principal Investigator: Tarnocai, C.
Licensed Year(s): 1991
Summary: This tour and the associated meetings will focus on the genesis, classification and management of permafrost soils (Cryosols) and the possible effect of climate change on these soils....


Quaternary Glacial History and Surficial Materials of Northwestern Baffin Island
Principal Investigator: Hooper, James Matthew
Licensed Year(s): 1991
Summary: The Researcher will map the surficial geology and glacial landforms of the area using air photographs and field evidence. They will also verify interpretations made from air photos by checking mapped units on the ground and by collecting soil samples for laboratory analysis....
