Bedrock geology of the Kivalliq corridor, Nunavut, through community mapping / M. Sanborn-Barrie, A. Ford, and N.M. Rayner.: M183-2/9184E-PDF

"The geology and geophysical character of the CKHF link corridor, portions of which are poorly known and under explored, was identified by Inuit organizations as a priority that should be assessed and updated to deliver a modern, time-calibrated, geological map. Such a map will support and inform mineral exploration across a region where access will significantly increase, and provide a modern geological framework on which future land-use decisions can be soundly based. This activity is using a community-based approach to engage and involve interested residents in the planning and execution of fieldwork required to collect observations and bedrock samples. The intention is to provide employment opportunities and strengthen interest, expertise, and capacity in geoscience within the western Hudson Bay communities of Whale Cove and Arviat"--page 2.
