2018 Yellowknife Geoscience Forum Abstract and Summary Volume 2018 Abstract and Summary Volume Cover photograph Carcajou River, NWT; Viktor Terlaky, Senior Petroleum Geologist at the Northwest Territories Geological Survey The picture was taken following a rainstorm along Carcajou River, NWT, which resulted in a spectacular rainbow across the river valley. In the background are outcrops of the Late Devonian Imperial Formation, interpreted to be submarine turbidite deposits. The light bands are sandstone bodies intercalated with the darker shale intervals, representing periodic activity in sedimentation. Compiled by D. Irwin, S.D. Gervais, and V. Terlaky Recommended Citation: Irwin, D., Gervais, S.D., and Terlaky, V.

  • Compendium of Research in the Northwest Territories 2014
    Compendium of Research in the Northwest Territories 2014 www.nwtresearch.com This publication is a collaboration between the Aurora Research Institute, the Department of Environment and Natural Resources, Fisheries and Oceans Canada and the Prince of Wales Northern Heritage Centre. Thank you to all who submitted a summary of research or photographs, and helped make this publication possible. Editor: Ashley Mercer Copyright © 2015 ISSN: 1205-3910 Printed by Aurora Research Institute Foreword Welcome to the 2014 Compendium of Research in the Northwest Territories. This year marked a special anniversary for the Aurora Research Institute and northern research. Fifty years ago, the Inuvik Research Laboratory was built and has served as a hub for research in the western arctic ever since. The Lab, as it was known, was first built as an initiative of the Canadian federal government in the newly established community of Inuvik. It remains on the same site today, but in 2011, a new modern multi-purpose facility opened to continue to support research in the north. We have included a brief history of the Lab and its impact in this edition of the Compendium to mark its long lasting importance to many researchers and community members. As part of the 50th anniversary celebration, the Aurora Research Institute team undertook a full set of NWT-wide celebrations. We celebrated the history, capacity and growth of research in the NWT that touched all corners of the territory and beyond. We honoured the significant scientific contributions that have taken place in the NWT over the past 50 years, and the role of NWT researchers, technicians and citizens in these accomplishments.

Global economies are changing, new markets are growing, and international focus is shifting north – and we are poised to take full advantage of this incredible opportunity. Our vast natural resource base continues to provide the backbone to our territorial economy and provide opportunities to our residents. The NWT exports approximately $3 billion in diamonds and oil annually. However, signifi cant potential remains. Last year industry bid over $500 million in the Sahtu Region for land parcels that will be explored for oil potential. The rugged, pristine and isolated nature of the Northwest Territories is also a perfect fi t for the large and growing international tourism market – tourism contributes $100 million annually to our economy, and, like our resource industry, it is on the brink of tremendous growth. Our smaller industries are also capitalizing on the unique Northern setting.

  • Movements and Distribution of the Bathurst and Ahiak Barren-Ground
    Movements and distribution of the Bathurst and Ahiak barren-ground caribou herds 2005 Annual Report Submitted to West Kitikmeot Slave Study Society Submitted By Project Leader Anne Gunn Project Team Adrian D’Hont, Judy Williams Organisation Wildlife Division, Environment and Natural Resources, Government of the Northwest Territories, Yellowknife. 2 Summary: Objectives for 2005 included deploying 10 collars on cows from the Bathurst caribou herd and 10 collars on cows from the Ahiak caribou herd. A reconnaissance survey over the winter range of the Bathurst herd found heavy concentrations of caribou at Lac Grandin southeast to Rae Lakes and then low densities of caribou until east of Yellowknife. Of the 10 collars put on the Bathurst range, three died between April and June and the remaining seven calved on the Bathurst calving ground. Flights over the Ahiak winter range resulted in no caribou seen east of Contwoyto, low concentrations on the Back River and high concentrations east of Artillery Lake and in the Nonacho Lake area. Five collars were deployed east of Artillery Lake and five in the Nonacho Lake area. Of the five collars deployed in the Nonacho Lake area, two caribou migrated to the Bathurst calving ground. The remaining eight collars calved on the Ahiak calving ground. In 2005, in addition to addressing the objectives of the movement and distribution study for individual herds we successfully collared 12 cows from the Bathurst herd and 8 from the Ahiak herd. We also documented overlap in the winter distribution of Ahiak and Bathurst caribou at Nonacho Lake. Acknowledgements: West Kitikmeot Slave Study Society funded the study and we thank the Board for their continued support.

    SLAVE MÉTIS ALLIANCE PO Box 2301 Yellowknife, NT X1A 2P7 July 4, 2019 Mackenzie Valley Review Board 200 Scotia Centre, 5102-50th Ave Yellowknife, NT X1A 2N7 To: Kate Mansfield & Catherine Fairbairn Re: Review Board Information Requests to Parties for Diavik EA1819-01 As requested for the Diavik Environmental Assessment (EA1819-01), the Mackenzie Valley Environmental Impact Review Board (Review Board) issued two information request to several parties, including the North Slave Métis Alliance. This letter specifically addresses Information Request 1: Potential impacts to cultural use of Lac de Gras Area 1. Please describe how your group used the Lac de Gras area culturally (including the hunting, fishing, trapping, gathering, and travel) before mining started there. As this question pertains to the land use prior to the development of Diavik Diamond Mine, this information was collected and provided to the regulators during the initial environmental assessment of the mine. Please see the attached “Appendix A: Can’t Live Without Work” by North Slave Metis Alliance (1999). 2. Please describe how your group would use and feel about the Lac de Gras area under the following scenarios: a) reconnecting empty pits and underground mine workings with Lac de Gras at closure (that is, Diavik’s current closure plan for the mine), b) putting processed kimberlite into the pits and underground mine workings before reconnecting them to Lac de Gras (that is, the proposed activities for this environmental assessment), c) putting processed kimberlite into the pits and underground mine workings and not reconnecting them with Lac de Gras. During a community meeting, NSMA members expressed that their interest was to have the Diavik mine site (not just the pits) return to pre-development condition as much as practicable, in such a way that the area would be the cleanest and safest environment possible for humans and wildlife.

  • Report of Environmental Assessment and Reasons for Decision
    Report of Environmental Assessment and Reasons for Decision EA1819-01 Diavik Diamond Mines Inc. Depositing processed kimberlite into pit(s) and underground January 2020 Let's listen well to each other. Let's listen… that's our land that we love that we're talking about. Let's share good stories and make good decisions. -Tłįchǫ Elder Dora Migwi (PR#156 p56) Report of Environmental Assessment and Reasons for Decision EA1819-01- Diavik - Depositing Processed Kimberlite into Pit(s) and Underground Review Board decision To make its decision in this environmental assessment, the Mackenzie Valley Environmental Impact Review Board (Review Board) has considered all the evidence on the public record and made its decision under section 128 of the Mackenzie Valley Resource Management Act. The Review Board finds that Diavik Diamond Mines Inc’s (Diavik) proposal to deposit processed kimberlite in pit(s) and underground (the Project) is likely to cause significant adverse impacts on the environment. The Project, without additional mitigation, is likely to cause a significant adverse impact on the cultural use of Lac de Gras. In addition, Diavik has not done enough to demonstrate that adverse impacts to water quality will not occur. The Review Board recommends, under subparagraph 128(1)(b)(ii) of the Mackenzie Valley Resource Management Act, that the Project be approved subject to the measures described in this report, which are necessary to prevent significant adverse impacts on the environment. Specifically, the Review Board requires measures to: •
