Report of activities for GEM-2 reconnaissance surficial geology, Indin Lake, Northwest Territories, NTS 86-B : GEM-2 Mackenzie project / D.E. Kerr and H.B. O’Neill.: M183-2/8313E-PDF

“The Indin Lake reconnaissance surficial geology map (NTS 86-B) depicts the glaciated landscape of a vast region of the Northwest Territories covered by glaciers about 10 500 years ago. The surficial geology is based on airphoto interpretation and limited legacy fieldwork. This work contributes to effective mineral exploration useful in drift prospecting for a variety of commodities including diamonds, precious and base metals, and supports informed decision making for resource development and land use. As part of the North Bear Surficial Geology Activity in the GEM Mackenzie Region Project, this work provides new geological knowledge and improves our understanding of the distribution and nature of the surficial geology cover, and the glacial history of this region.”--Project summary, p. 7.
