Supplementing public geoscience knowledge with archived industry data : an example from northwest Canada / T.D. Finley, K.M. Fallas, and R.B. MacNaughton.: M183-2/8188E-PDF
"The present report documents the procedures used to rescue archival, public-domain mineral-exploration data in the context of a GEM Program bedrock-mapping activity. These data were gathered during a mineral-exploration campaign in the Mackenzie Mountains, NWT, by Rio Tinto Canadian Exploration Ltd. (Sanguinetti et al., 1976), and subsequently were placed in the public domain. The rescued data are a worthwhile supplement to the GSC’s digital records and will contribute to the repository of public geoscience data in Canada, meeting the objectives of the Open Data Initiative. Having access to these maps in digital format will increase the effectiveness of current mapping projects, taking advantage of money already spent, and making more efficient use of public funds"--Introduction, page 2.
