Book Description
Mineral exploration in large parts of Canada is difficult because the bedrock is hidden beneath thick layers of glacially derived sediments. One technique to overcome this, called drift prospecting, identifies high concentrations of economically significant minerals or elements in the glacial sediments and helps to identify their bedrock sources. This project was designed to interpret Quaternary geology to assist in mineral development. This report shows how the geochemistry and lithology of the glacial sediments vary across the region and how the stratigraphy and provenance of those sediments can be interpreted so that geochemical anomalies or mineralized boulders may be traced back to their bedrock sources.

Quaternary Glaciations - Extent and Chronology
Author: J. Ehlers
Publisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 0444534474
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 1128
Book Description
The book presents an up-to-date, detailed overview of the Quaternary glaciations all over the world, not only with regard to stratigraphy but also with regard to major glacial landforms and the extent of the respective ice sheets. The locations of key sites are included. The information is presented in digital, uniformly prepared maps which can be used in a Geographical Information System (GIS) such as ArcView or ArcGIS. The accompanying text supplies the information on how the data were obtained (geomorphology, geological mapping, air photograph evaluation, satellite imagery), how the features were dated (14C, TL, relative stratigraphy) and how reliable they are supposed to be. All references to the underlying basic publications are included. Where controversial interpretations are possible e.g. in Siberia or Tibet, this is pointed out. As a result, the information on Quaternary glaciations worldwide will be much improved and supplied in a uniform digital format. The information on the glacial limits is compiled in digital form by the coordinators of the project, and is available for download at: http://booksite.elsevier.com/9780444534477/ Completely updated detailed coverage of worldwide Quaternary glaciations Information in digital, uniformly prepared maps which can be used in a GIS such as ArcView or ArcGis Step-by-step guideline how to open and use ArcGis files Possibility to convert the shapefiles into GoogleEarth kmz-files Availability of chronological controls

Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 368
Book Description
This volume describes the use of till geochemical and indicator mineral methods for mineral exploration in the glaciated terrain of Canada. The principles and examples described in this volume will have direct applications for exploration companies looking for diamonds, precious and base metals and uranium in glaciated parts of North America, northern Europe and Asia and mountainous regions of South America.
