  • Creighton-Flin Flon
    Flin Flon Domain of Saskatchewan – Dataset Descriptions The Flin Flon domain hosts one of the most prolific Precambrian volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) districts in the world, with over 160 million tonnes of ore produced from at least 28 deposits in Saskatchewan and Manitoba since the start of the 20th century. Situated in the Reindeer Zone of the of the Trans-Hudson Orogen, rocks of this domain comprise dominantly metamorphosed and polydeformed volcanoplutonic terranes with subordinate siliciclastic sedimentary sequences. Volcanic rocks vary in composition throughout the domain and were originally emplaced in a variety of tectonic settings, including island arc(s), arc rift, ocean floor, and ocean pleateau. The VMS deposits are hosted primarily by Paleoproterozoic juvenile arc rocks in one of several defined lithotectonic assemblages. The datasets provided for this area are located within a ~12,000 km2 area of the Flin Flon Domain of Saskatchewan that contains several past producing base metal mines and a multitude of known mineral occurrences. The northern quarter of the area is underlain by exposed Precambrian Shield, whereas the southern three-quarters consists of Precambrian basement situated beneath up to 200 metres of undeformed, Phanerozoic sedimentary rocks. The sedimentary cover in this southern portion makes exploration of the Precambrian rocks particularly challenging. The datasets provided for this area consist of: (i) airborne geophysical survey data, and (ii) multiple GIS datasets from the exposed Precambrian Shield and/or the buried Precambrian basement and/or the Phanerozoic sedimentary cover. The geophysical data comprises digital data for 22 airborne surveys including industry-derived data submitted to the Saskatchewan Geological Survey through assessment work reports, and surveys funded by provincial and federal governments.

  • New Results from Mapping in the Flin Flon Mining Camp, Creighton, Saskatchewan
    Stratigraphy, Structure, and Silicification: New Results From Mapping in the Flin Flon Mining Camp, Creighton, Saskatchewan Kate MacLachlan MacLachlan (2006): Stratigraphy, structure, and silicification: new results from mapping in the Flin Flon Mining Camp, Creighton, Saskatchewan; in Summary of Investigations Volume 2, 2006, Saskatchewan Geological Survey, Sask. Industry Resources, Misc. Rep. 2006-4.2, CD-ROM, Paper A-9, 25p. Abstract Two areas in the Flin Flon mining camp were mapped at a scale of 1:5000, one area between Douglas Lake and West Arm Road on the west limb of the Beaver Road Anticline, and the other on the peninsula between Green Lake and Phantom Lake. In the Douglas Lake area, mapping was undertaken in the hanging wall of the west-younging, felsic-dominated Myo member of the Flin Flon formation. Significant findings include, an extrusive felsic unit above the upper contact of the Myo member, abundant peperite at several stratigraphic levels, an up to 100 m wide zone of semi-conformable silicification, and pervasive sinistral shearing that post-dates the Phantom Intrusive Suite. In the Green Lake Peninsula area, three fault-bounded successions with opposing younging directions were recognized. The easternmost succession, east of the newly defined Burley Lake Fault (a modified version of the Phantom Lake Fault), is part of the west-younging Louis formation on the east limb of the Burley Lake Syncline. The east-younging succession between the Burley Lake and Green Lake faults comprises a large component of fine- grained mafic volcaniclastic rocks intercalated with aphyric and plagioclase ± pyroxene porphyritic flows, and is tentatively correlated with the Hidden formation.

  • History of Mining in Saskatchewan
    History of Mining In Saskatchewan Early Mining in Saskatchewan The earliest mining occurred when earth’s inhabitants started using various stones for tools or certain clays for cooking vessels. The earliest recorded occupation in Saskatchewan was around 9000 B.C. at the Niska site in the southern part of the province. Ample evidence of the use of stone tools, arrow heads, and spear heads, etc. has been found in the area. Much of the material used by these early inhabitants was imported or traded from other regions of North America. The study of the stone tools provides us with information about the people’s work, their history, their religion, their travels and their relationships with other groups or nations. Stone is readily available throughout most of Saskatchewan. This was especially important for Saskatchewan’s First Nations people who moved their camps frequently in search for food. The stones available were not all suitable for tools and they needed a constant supply of stone material that broke cleanly or was hard enough for pounding. Consequently, they made regular trips to the source areas or traded with people who lived near the sources. For these early residents of our province, the exchange of goods was more than just a means of acquiring things. Bartering and gift exchange was a means of creating and reinforcing relationships between individuals, families and nations. For thousands of years, goods have been exchanged through networks that extended across North America. Although perishable goods were also traded, our records are in the form of shell or stone artefacts.

QUIRING Abstract The election of the CCF in 1944 brought rapid change for the residents of northern Saskatchewan. CCF initiatives included encouraging northern aboriginals to trade their semi-nomadic lifestyles for lives in urban settings. The establishment of Kinoosao on Reindeer Lake provides an example of how CCF planners established new villages; community development processes excluded local people.
