This book was released on 2002 with total page 14 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper presents an overview of the field research conducted during the 2001 season, along with preliminary field observations, from the second year of the Committee Bay Project's Quaternary studies. The objectives of these studies are to compile high-resolution terrain inventories for the Laughland Lake, Walker Lake, Arrowsmith River, and Ellice Hills map areas of central Nunavut; to begin a reconnaissance-scale drift prospecting program that utilizes both heavy-mineral & till geochemical analyses; and to interpret the glacial history at local & regional scales. After introductory sections on regional geology, previous research, and sampling & survey methods, the paper summarizes preliminary results from field observations regarding generalized ice movements & glacial landforms.

This book was released on 2002 with total page 10 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ice movement indicators have been carefully documented in the Arrowsmith River area of central mainland Nunavut, and this paper presents preliminary results of this research. It begins with background on the regional geological setting and on the field sampling methods used. Ice movement indicators & associated glacial landforms are then described, including striae, eskers, meltwater channels, moraine systems, and raised shorelines.

This book was released on 2002 with total page 10 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Observations & interpretations during mapping of the Walker Lake area, central Nunavut, allowed for the identification of three landforms requiring further investigation: eskers, transverse ridges, and irregular mounds. This paper describes & interprets each of these features, then develops a hypothesis that links their origin with the area's glacial history.

This book was released on 2002 with total page 13 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After an overview of the regional geological setting, this paper describes the geology of the three contrasting domains of the Committee Bay belt in central Nunavut. The first & largest section covers the central domain, which comprises four narrow supracrustal belts intruded by lenticular plutonic bodies. The remaining sections describe the northern crustal domain, dominated by metasedimentary rocks & granitoid plutons, and the south-east domain, dominated by granodiorite to granite batholiths that intrude rocks of the central domain.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report results from an investigation of the Quaternary geology & geomorphology of the south half of Melville Peninsula, Nunavut. The purpose of the investigation was to map the area systematically in order to determine the distribution, character, & origin of surface materials and to reconstruct the Quaternary history of the area. The first part provides background information on previous research, bedrock geology, and physiography of the area. The next part describes the nature & distribution of surficial materials & landforms, including information on their physical properties, texture, & composition along with interpretation of their mode of formation. A subsequent section on present geomorphic processes addresses topics of particular interest to environmental concerns & land management. The final section emphasizes those elements that concern mineral exploration, specifically the provenance of till, directions & distances of glacial transport, concentrations of elements in till, and their relationship to bedrock geology.
