The only river of any size entering Lake (McLeod Bay) from the north, I was curious if it Christie Bay is the Snowdrift. Rising in the Barrens at were possible to canoe into the East Arm (Christie Bay) Sandy Lake, it flows southwest parallel to the axis of the from the south. Geology was an obstacle here since the East Arm until finally plunging through the McDonald steep north-facing cliffs of the McDonald Fault, which Fault to Great Slave. runs along the south shore of the lake here, mean that the This final plunge was the problem. The surveyor Guy height of land is only a few kilometres inland, and most of Blanchet had followed the Snowdrift in 1925.

Ill ABSTRACT Characterizing the joint system is a very significant component of investigations on fractured rock aquifers, as the secondary porosity controls the groundwater flow. It is also important to analyze the types of interactions between the joints, e.g., the types of termination and the dominancy of a certain joint set, since such information helps to understand the tectonic events that were responsible for the generation of the joint systems in the aquifer. Moreover, the current stress field is usually the most significant in controlling joint aperture, which plays a major role in groundwater flow. The main objective of this work is to characterize an aquifer in fractured crystalline rocks with a fairly homogeneous lithology, defining a hydrogeological model of the study area, through structural surveys at different scales and hydrogeologic data analyses. This study was carried out in the Kenogami uplands, within the Saguenay graben, Quebec. It aimed to answer the following questions: (1) is there a structured joint system in the bedrock, that is, is it possible to identify preferential joint orientations and structural domains? (2) Can joint systems be defined at different scales, e.g. -
