This book was released on 2002 with total page 13 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Flin Flon Paleoproterozoic volcanic belt of north central Manitoba & Saskatchewan contains numerous volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) deposits of great economic importance. In view of concerns about the long-term economic stability of that region, the Flin Flon Targeted Geoscience Initiative was established to gain a better understanding of the volcanic setting & hydrothermal signatures of these VMS deposits and to assist in the development of exploration strategies. This paper briefly reviews the geological setting of the project area and describes regional sub-projects of the Initiative. Topics of these sub-projects include oxygen isotope mapping, trace element signatures, detailed geologic mapping, volcanic rock alteration, and mine stratigraphy & geologic structure.

Arguing that the work they do is socially necessary and central to the economy, it calls for a transformation of current social and economic relations.

Download or read book Toward Defining the Prairies written by Robert Wardhaugh and published by Univ. of Manitoba Press. This book was released on 2001-04-30 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New ways of thinking about literature and history have radically changed how we think about or even "define" a region like the Prairie West. In fact, the very concept of "defining" has come into question by new theoretical approaches and it may now seem a hopeless endeavour. But the process of defining can be just as important as the actual production of a definition.Toward Defining the Prairies highlights recent approaches to thinking about the Prairie West. Bounded by pieces from well-known historian Gerald Friesen and Governor-General's Award-winning writer Robert Kroetsch, these 13 essays are as diverse as the region itself. In their examination of different aspects of Prairie history, literature, climate, society, culture, and identity, they help to provide a new understanding of this place and of the complexities of its definition.

Download or read book Guts and Go Overtime written by Calvin Daniels and published by Heritage House Publishing Co. This book was released on 2005 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Saskatchewan is hockey. The only activity more pervasive is farming, and often the two are combined when farmers play hockey for their community teams. As Calvin Daniels discovered when researching and writing the first Guts and Go (2004), hockey is so intertwined with everyday life in this province that hockey stories are much more than the retelling of games and tournaments. Indeed, they are every bit as much about the people and the province as they are about the game. It all adds up to some pretty entertaining stories, not only of the well-known stars who ply their skills in pro leagues, but also the local players and teams who bring excitement and pride to communities across the province. Whether it's a great event like the Moosomin Moose playing marathon hockey to set a Guinness World Record and raise money for a new town hospital or the exciting play of Shaunavon's Rhett Warrener of the Calgary Flames, readers will discover that Guts and Go Overtime is written for anyone, young or old, who enjoys hockey and good stories, regardless of where they live.
Download or read book The History of Mining written by Michael Coulson and published by Harriman House Limited. This book was released on 2012-11-12 with total page 489 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE INDUSTRY THAT FORGED THE MODERN WORLD Throughout history metals and raw materials have underpinned human activity. So it is that the industry responsible for extracting these materials from the ground - mining - has been ever present throughout the history of civilisation, from the ancient world of the Egyptians and Romans, to the industrial revolution and the British Empire, and through to the present day, with mining firms well represented on the world's most important stock indexes including the FTSE100. This book traces the history of mining from those early moments when man first started using tools to the present day where metals continue to underpin economic activity in the post industrial age. In doing so, the history of mining methods, important events, technological developments, the important firms and the sparkling personalities that built the industry are examined in detail. At every stage, as the history of mining is traced from 40,000BC to the present day, the level of detail increases in accordance with the greater social and industrial developments that have played out as time has progressed. This means that a particular focus is given to the period since the industrial revolution and especially the 20th century. A look is also taken into the future in an effort to chart the direction this great industry might take in years to come. Many books have been written about mining; the majority have focused on a particular metal, geographical area, mining event or mining personality, but 'The History of Mining' has a broader scope and covers all of these essential and fascinating areas in one definitive volume.
