Describes studies conducted as part of a program to provide baseline data of surficial materials, ice-flow history, and soil geochemistry in the Yellowknife area, aimed at augmenting the geoscience database to support mineral exploration & development. After description of the regional setting & bedrock geology of the area, information is presented on surficial sediments (till, glaciofluvial & glaciolacustrine sediments, peat), ice flow patterns, glacial history, and pebble lithology provenance.

A well-exposed section about 250 metres wide below the high water line of the Jennings River, Teslin Lake map area in northern British Columbia shows part of the Teslin Fault and provides an opportunity to constrain the fault's kinematic history by direct ground observations. This report describes preliminary structural observations of this section of the Teslin Fault, including the rock types involved, mylonitic & ultramylonitic structures, and deformation. Indications of two main episodes of shearing are discussed.

The use of static global positioning system (GPS) equipment for accurate horizontal & vertical positioning in field geology operations at high latitudes is made difficult by the need to set up & operate a GPS reference station and limitations on the distance between the reference station & field GPS due to errors introduced by the ionosphere. Dual-frequency GPS receivers have the potential to eliminate these problems since they can eliminate ionospheric errors and thereby increase baseline lengths, thus potentially permitting the use of existing GPS reference stations. This paper describes the use of a dual-frequency receiver for establishing benchmarks along the Yukon River as a field trial of this technology. Field methods and post-processing of the data using GPS data from permanent receiving stations are described, and baseline results are presented. The derived benchmarks will be applied to a survey of fill thickness below the Yukon River.

This paper reports the results of remapping the Mountain Grove pluton, situated in the Sharbot Lake domain in the central part of the Central Metasedimentary Belt, Grenville Province, Ontario. The pluton, previously mapped as a single body of gabbroic rock, is now described as comprising two distinct intrusions. The paper begins with an overview of its geologic setting, then describes the lithology of the two intrusion units, associated dykes, and neighbouring intrusions & plutons. The geochronology of the pluton and its mineral deposits are also briefly noted.

The purpose of this paper is to document results of the electrical resistivity characteristics of rocks from the Astarte River Formation, central Baffin Island, for use in interpreting ground electromagnetic surveys that have been conducted in the central Baffin region. Results are presented for five black graphitic shale samples subjected to three-dimensional electrical resistivity measurements & subsequent data analysis. The samples were selected to characterize the resistivity of the Formation and to determine the effect of strong foliation containing porous layers & of disseminated sulphide mineralization oriented parallel to foliation.
