Report of activities for the GEM-2 Mackenzie project : Devonian litho- and biostratigraphy in the northern Mackenzie Mountains, NWT / S.A. Gouwy ... [et al.].: M183-2/8332E-PDF

“Northern Mackenzie Mountains bedrock mapping and stratigraphic studies are a component of the Mackenzie-Selwyn geo-transect: studying the evolution of sedimentary rocks of the northern mainland NWT to improve exploration success for petroleum resources and base metal deposits. This activity will initiate the first regional integrated effort to place Proterozoic to Cenozoic strata of the Mackenzie Platform, Selwyn Basin, and adjacent regions into a modern tectono-stratigraphic and metallogenic framework, and will better enable industry and Northerners to responsibly find and develop energy and mineral natural resources, maximizing their economic and societal impact. This report provides a short account of the field activities in the Bonnet Plume map area (NTS 106B) of the Mackenzie Mountains (NWT). Fieldwork was conducted by the Devonian paleontology team, as part of the Arctic Red field party, between July 4 and July 20, 2017. Information presented in this report concerns the biostratigraphic and lithostratigraphic characterization of Devonian units related to the geological mapping of the area”--Summary, p. 2.
