520 |a“The Tehery-Wager activity, conducted as part of the second phase of Natural Resources Canada’s Geo-mapping for Energy and Minerals (GEM-2) Rae project, is a collaborative effort between the Geological Survey of Canada (GSC) and the Canada-Nunavut Geoscience Office (CNGO), with participants from Canadian universities. The study area comprises all or parts of eight National Topographic System (NTS) map areas between Chesterfield Inlet and Wager Bay in Nunavut (NTS 46D, 46E, 56A, 56B, 56C, 56F, 56G, and 56H). The main objective of the work is to increase the level of geological knowledge in this poorly known and under-explored region of the Canadian Shield through targeted bedrock geology mapping, surficial geology studies, glacial and stream sediment sampling, ground-gravity transects, and other thematic studies. The gathered information is being used to better evaluate this frontier region’s potential for a variety of commodities, including diamonds and other gemstones, base and precious metals, industrial minerals, carving stone, and aggregate, and to assist all stakeholders, including northerners, in making future land-use decisions. This report provides an update on map compilation and laboratory activities conducted following the 2015 and 2016 field seasons in the Tehery-Wager area”--Project summary, p. 2.
