A new approach to understanding the origin of Fuerteventura, Canary Islands (Spain): A U-Pb, Hf and O isotope and minor- and trace- element detrital zircon study
DownloadSpring 2019
The Canarian Archipelago contains seven islands proximal to the African continent and High Atlas Mountains. The origin and magmatic evolution of these islands has been a contentious issue for several decades. This particular archipelago is unique because three of the islands (Fuerteventura, La...

At the precipice of the Great Oxygen Crash: Redox-sensitive metal geochemistry in the Paleoproterozoic Onega Basin
DownloadSpring 2021
The middle Paleoproterozoic era (~2200–1800 million years ago) was host to some of the most significant perturbations in Earth’s elemental cycles, including the largest ever excursion of carbon isotope ratios in sedimentary rocks, known as the Lomagundi-Jatuli Event. This event has been linked to...

Biogeochemistry of meromictic pit lakes and permeable reactive barriers at the Cluff Lake uranium mine
DownloadFall 2019
Mining generates not only vast amounts of waste rock and tailings but is also responsible for far-reaching contamination of soil, groundwater, and surface water, which often requires remediation. This thesis focused on the biogeochemistry of two types of remediation technologies applied at the...

Chemostratigraphy and facies analysis of the Hare Indian Formation in the Mackenzie Mountains and Central Mackenzie Valley, Northwest Territories, Canada
DownloadFall 2020
The Hare Indian Formation, a Givetian aged organic rich mudstone, is the basal formation of the Horn River Group in the Northwest Territories, Canada. It is subdivided into two members: the basal Bluefish Member and the upper Bell Creek Member. Recent interest in unconventional resource plays...

Geochronology and bulk sediment geochemistry of the Late Cretaceous maar lake sedimentary fill of the Wombat kimberlite pipe, subarctic Canada
DownloadSpring 2020
The Wombat pipe (64.918° N, 110.447° W) is a diamondiferous kimberlite in the Lac de Gras kimberlite field of Northwest Territories, Canada. Two drill cores, CH93-29 and 00-05, intersect the Wombat crater facies and include 195 m of well preserved, undisturbed lake sediment fill. Bulk sediment...

Kimberlite Indicator Minerals from the Central Mackenzie Valley, Northwest Territories, Canada: A Reconnaissance Geochemistry Survey
DownloadFall 2018
The Central Mackenzie Valley (CMV) area of Northwest Territories is underlain by Precambrian basement belonging to the North American Craton. The potential of this area to host kimberlitic diamond deposits is relatively high judging from the seismologically-defined lithospheric thickness, the age...

Fall 2021
Reconnaissance regional mapping as part of the Geological Survey of Canada’s Geomapping for Energy and Minerals (GEM-2) project documented three voluminous, massive to weakly foliated felsic plutons in Boothia Peninsula, Nunavut. Uranium-lead zircon and monazite geochronology reveals this...

Spring 2020
The Pikoo kimberlites of east-central Saskatchewan are a relatively recent discovery, comprising at least ten discreet bodies thought to erupt through the Sask Craton, a small Archean microcontinent enclosed within the Paleoproterozoic Trans-Hudson Orogen. Since the Sask Craton also plays host...

Rhenium-osmium systematics and major and trace element chemistry of cobaltite (CoAsS): Evidence for Late Mesoproterozoic sediment-hosted Co-Cu sulfide mineralization with Grenvillian and Cretaceous remobilization in the Idaho Cobalt Belt, Belt-Purcell Basin, USA
Download2019-01-07
NJ Saintilan, RA Creaser, AA Bookstrom
We report the first study of the Re-Os systematics of cobaltite (CoAsS) using disseminated andmassively mineralized samples from two breccia-type and two stratabound deposits from the Co-Cu-Au Idaho Cobalt Belt, Lehmi Sub-basin to the Belt-Purcell Basin, Idaho, USA. Using a 185Re+190Os spike...

Trace Element Variability in Clay Sediments as a Function of Environmental Conditions within the Fluvial to Marine Water Transition Zone
DownloadFall 2019
Estuaries are marginal marine environments of considerable complexity, due to their spatial and temporal variations in hydrodynamic energy, water chemistry, and sediment source and composition. This complexity hinders geologists’ ability to accurately reconstruct paleoenvironments and...
