Late Proterozoic stratigraphy of northwestern Canada and its record of Earth system evolution
chercheur principal: Halverson, Galen P
Année(s) de permis: 2014 2011
Résumé: The objectives of this study are: 1. to improve the geological, tectonic, and geochemical constraints on the emplacement of ca. 780 Ma Little Dal Basalt and associated sill and dikes and the deposition of the overlying Coats Lake Group; and 2. to improve correlation between the Little Dal Group and similar-aged strata in the Yukon Territory in order to under the origin and geometry of this sedim...


Stratigraphic and paleontological reconnaissance of Devonian geology, Hay River area, NWT
chercheur principal: Schneider, Christie L
Année(s) de permis: 2009
Résumé: This year, the research purpose is to investigate potential geological localities for work next year, so direct involvement with local communities and guides will be minimal. The researcher intends to identify and talk with people who have outfitting and guide businesses, and those who have knowledge of potential research areas for next summer’s research. The objectives of the proposed researc...


Regional Geoscience Studies & Petroleum Potential of the Peel Plateau and Plain, Northwest Territories & Yukon
chercheur principal: Jones, Adrienne
Année(s) de permis: 2007 2006 2005
Résumé: The Peel Plateau and Plain is a region of under-explored hydrocarbon potential. Bedrock mapping and exploration drilling was done in the 1960s. The objective of this project is to improve knowledge of regional geology, including stratigraphy; correlation, depositional and tectonic histories; basin evolution; and petroleum geology and potential. Reconnaissance work will be conducted in the Peel Pla...


Collaborative Research: A Sequence, Chemo- and Biostratigraphic Study of Late Early Cambrian Rocks, Southern Selwyn Basin, Mackenzie Mountains, NWT
chercheur principal: Pope, Michael
Année(s) de permis: 2003 2002 2001
Résumé: The Early Cambrian is an important time in Earth history for it records the widespread radiation of animals during significant climatic, sea level, and tectonic changes. This project will be a stratigraphic, geochemical, and paleontological study of high...


Sedimentology and Stratigraphy of Upper Devonian Strata around Hay River, NWT
chercheur principal: MacNeil, Alex
Année(s) de permis: 2003 2002
Résumé: The purpose of this study (2003 component) is to examine the fossilized types of corals that are found in the regional geological formations. Locally these corals coalesced to form mini-reefs, with interesting ecological characteristics. From the study...


Biostratigraphy and sedimentology of Middle Cambrian deep-water deposits (Rockslide Formation), Mackenzie Mountains
chercheur principal: Pratt, Brian R.
Année(s) de permis: 2012 2002 2000 1998
Résumé: 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 and Mineral Occurrences of the Ravens Throat Area, Mackenzie Mountains, N.W.T.
chercheur principal: Colpron, Maurice
Année(s) de permis: 1997
Résumé: The project will be conducted from 10-12 tent fly-camps within the study area. Each camp will be set-out by helicopter (out of Norman Wells) and will be of a duration of approximately 5-7 days. Our work will consist of daily hikes from our camps, during which our observations of the rock types and mineral occurrences will be noted on 1:50,000-scale topographic maps and air photos. Data collectio...


Thematic structural stratigraphic, and geochronological studies of the Slave structural province.
chercheur principal: Bleeker, Wouter
Année(s) de permis: 2000 1999 1998 1997 1996 1995 1994
Résumé: Map and describe the various rock types and assess their role in the complex geological history of the Slave Province. Fly-in / fly-out camps with small airplanes and small campsites to make daily traverses by boat or foot to study the local rocks. Small samples will be taken of interesting rocks; samples are fist sized....


Terminal Proterozoic events in northwestern Canada
chercheur principal: MacNaughton, Robert B.
Année(s) de permis: 1998 1997
Résumé: Members of a field party will be transported to base camp by helicopter. Base-camp moves will also be done by helicopter. All ground work will be done on foot. Data collection involves photography of rock outcrops, measurement of stratigraphic sections using a Jacob's staff (measuring pole), and the following of key stratigraphic surfaces. Collection of rock samples is either from free-lying fl...


Paleontology and sedimentology of Late Proterozoic Little Dal Reefs, Mackenzie Mountains, NWT.
chercheur principal: Turner, Elizabeth C
Année(s) de permis: 2001 1999 1998 1996 1994 1992 1991 1989 1988
Résumé: Two people will be transported to the field sites via helicopter from Norman Wells. All ground work is done on foot. Data collection involves photography of rock outcrops, measurement of stratigraphic sections using a tape measure, description of outcrops, and selective sampling of about 100 fist-sized rock samples using a geological hammer....
