Application of SWAT-MODFLOW Software to Evaluate Groundwater-Surface Water Interaction in West-Central Alberta
DownloadFall 2018
Responsible watershed management is emerging as a key issue as humanity continues to place increasing demands on water resources. To meet future demands, it has become imperative that water resources be managed as a holistic system rather than solely focusing on individual aspects....

Canada’s National Housing Strategy (2017) identifies LGBTQ2 people and newcomers (including refugees) as vulnerable groups within Canada’s housing system. Members of each group are known to experience significant barriers to housing in Canada. However, the unique experiences of LGBTQ refugees—who...

Behaviour of Ore-Forming Elements in the Sub-Continental Lithospheric Mantle Below the Slave Craton
DownloadFall 2020
The transport and depositional controls of ore-forming elements such as Ag, Au, Bi, Cu, Mo, Pb, Pt, and Zn has been extensively studied in crustal environments, but the behaviour of these elements within Earth’s mantle require further study. This thesis presents new petrographic and geochemical...

Boxed-in: Comparing Algorithms for Box-flight Mass-Balance Greenhouse Gas Flux Measurements from Mineable and In Situ Oil Sands Developments
DownloadSpring 2022
To combat global warming, Canada has committed to reducing greenhouse gases (GHGs) 40-45% below 2005 emission levels by 2025. Monitoring emissions and deriving accurate inventories are essential to reaching these goals. GHGs can be measured at a small scale, often using ground measurements which...

Characterization of the Geothermal Resource at Clarke Lake Field Northeast British Columbia
DownloadFall 2020
Clarke Lake is a depleted gas fi eld developed in carbonate platform deposits of the Slave Point Formation (Middle Devonian) in northeastern British Columbia, Canada. It displays anomalously high reservoir temperature and strong water drive, making it a candidate for repurposing as a source of...

Spring 2016
Thunderstorms have the potential to produce severe weather and can result in significant financial and human losses. The province of Alberta is one of Canada’s most active thunderstorm regions, with the record for insured damage due to hail. Therefore, it is crucial that thunderstorm forecasts be...

Development and application of the Re-Os isotope system to sediment-hosted Zn-Pb ores and sedimentary pore waters
DownloadFall 2018
The rhenium-osmium (Re-Os) isotopic system is used to determine the age of, and trace the origins of, minerals and fluids found within the Earth's crust. This thesis focuses on application of Re-Os geochronology and isotope systematics to sulphide minerals from carbonate-hosted Zn-Pb ore...

Diagenetic Controls on Hydrothermal Fluid Flow in the Osiris, Isis, and Isis East Carlin-Type Gold Showings, Nadaleen Trend, Yukon
DownloadFall 2015
Following ATAC Resources Ltd.’s 2010 discovery of the gold prospects in the Nadaleen Trend (Central Yukon), company geologists and consultants determined that Precambrian carbonate rocks within the trend contain large endowments of gold located in the hinges of anticlines and fault zones. ...

Spring 2018
The northern Appalachian Orogen was built during multiple orogenic episodes resulting from Cambrian through Devonian accretion of microcontinents and/or crustal ribbons to the eastern margin of Laurentia. Orogenic loading formed a foreland basin on the Laurentian craton. Orogen-derived sediments...

Genesis and controls on mineralization at the Hammer Zone silver showing, Mount Mye Trend, hosted by the Anvil Batholith, South-Central Yukon
DownloadFall 2017
When Silver Range resources acquired the Keg property in 2010, one of the prospects included was the Hammer Zone. Ensuing mapping and surface sampling found the Hammer Zone to be a small, bonanza-grade, epithermal silver system contained entirely within the Anvil Batholith. Initial petrographic...
