Field survey plan and strategy of snow sampling for ecosystem cycling of metals near gold and diamond deposits of the Slave Geological Province, Northwest Territories : implications for the release, cycling,...: M183-2/7484E-PDF
This open file describes the field snow sampling under the project 'Ecosystem cycling of metals near gold and diamond deposits of the Slave Geological Province, NWT' under the program 'Environmental Geoscience Program', including field trip preparation, equipment needed, field sampling methodology, sample handling on site and sample analysis in the base laboratories. This report aims to facilitate future snow sampling in northern Canada. The sampling area covers the southern portion of the Winter Road between Yellowknife and Diavik mining camp. Sampling sites are shown in the map of The Tibbitt to Contwoyto Winter Road. This field trip started on 9th of March and was completed on 25th of March, 2012. Sample analysis was carried out after the field trip in several laboratories within Canada, including the Centre for Earth Observation Science, Department of Environment & Geography, University of Manitoba, the Department of Chemistry, Trent University and The glaciology chemistry laboratory, Geological Survey of Canada, Natural resources Canada.
