GEM2 southern Mackenzie surficial activity 2017 report of activities : surficial geology and heavy mineral studies in southern Northwest Territories / R.C. Paulen ... [et al.]. : M183-2/8322E-PDF

“This report summarizes accomplishments of the Southern Mackenzie Surficial activity that is focused in the southern Northwest Territories. This research is being carried out in collaboration with the Northwest Territories Geological Survey, the University of Waterloo and Memorial University. The report outlines field methods and field observations regarding the regional surficial geology and reconstruction of glacial history based on detailed mapping of palaeo iceflow indicators and stratigraphy. It also discusses regional multi-media heavy mineral sampling transects that are being used to better understand long-distance glacial dispersal of indicator minerals and to potentially delimitate regions of previously unknown mineralization in the Paleozoic platform of the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin. The overall objective of this research activity is to produce new regional geoscience data including surficial geology, geochemistry and indicator mineral maps to support natural resource exploration and responsible resource development in the southern Mackenzie corridor”--Activity summary, p. 1.
