Additional information on First Nations populations can be found with Aboriginal Affairs and Northern Development Canada. In 2015, close to 40,000 individuals lived in northern Saskatchewan. Compared to the province, the northern health authorities have larger proportions of their populations in the younger age categories, while most of Saskatchewan’s population is in the middle and older age groups. The northern Saskatchewan health authorities have between 27.9 and 31.8 % of the population that is less than 15 years of age and only between 4.7 and 6.9% of the population aged 65 years and above. Saskatchewan has 19.3% less than 15 years and 14.5% that is 65 years and above. The northern Saskatchewan health authorities continue to have growing populations, increasing between 11.6 and 12.4% over the last 10 years. This equated to changes of 268, 838, and 2704 individuals in AHA, KY and MCR, respectively. Similarly, Saskatchewan increased by 14.5% over the same time period, which equated into an increase of 145,212 individuals. There have been shifts in the population over the last 20 years. Compared to 1996, in 2015 there have been decreases of between 6.3 and 9.0% in the proportion of the population less than 15 years of age within the three northern health authorities. At the same time, the proportion of the population aged 65 and over has increased between 1.1 and 2%. During the same time period, the proportion of the population less than 15 years of age in Saskatchewan decreased by 3.4%, while the proportion of the population aged 65 and over increased by 0.1%. Dependency ratio is the ratio of the combined child population (aged 0 to 19) and elderly population (aged 65 and over) compared to the working age population (aged 20 to 64). In 2014, MCRHR along with KYHR and AHA had the highest dependency ratios of all health authorities in Canada. Most of the dependency ratio in the north is attributable to the under 20 population, which makes up over 40% of the population. In comparison, Saskatchewan’s dependency ratio is more affected by the elder population, which makes up approximately 15% of its population. Over 85% of northern Saskatchewan people identify themselves as Aboriginal, compared to 15% in Saskatchewan. The proportion of Aboriginal people in the northern health authorities ranges from 82.5% in MCRHR to 95.9% in AHA. The proportion of the northern Saskatchewan population that self-identifies as Aboriginal is similar to some northern Canadian regions but is substantially higher than others. Close to 68% of the people in northern Saskatchewan identify themselves as First Nations, 19% as Metis, and fewer than 14% as non-Aboriginal. In contrast, 84% of the total Saskatchewan population self-identifies as non-Aboriginal, 5% as Métis, and 10% as First Nations. Although northern communities share many commonalities, they also vary greatly among one another in terms of population structures, growth rates, and self-reported Aboriginal identity.

    Wheeler River Project Provincial Technical Proposal and Federal Project Description Denison Mines Corp. May 2019 WHEELER RIVER PROJECT TECHNICAL PROPOSAL & PROJECT DESCRIPTION Wheeler River Project Provincial Technical Proposal and Federal Project Description Project Summary English – Page ii French – Page x Dene – Page xx Cree – Page xxviii PAGE i WHEELER RIVER PROJECT TECHNICAL PROPOSAL & PROJECT DESCRIPTION Summary Wheeler River Project The Wheeler River Project (Wheeler or the Project) is a proposed uranium mine and processing plant in northern Saskatchewan, Canada. It is located in a relatively undisturbed area of the boreal forest about 4 km off of Highway 914 and approximately 35 km north-northeast of the Key Lake uranium operation. Wheeler is a joint venture project owned by Denison Mines Corp. (Denison) and JCU (Canada) Exploration Company Ltd. (JCU). Denison owns 90% of Wheeler and is the operator, while JCU owns 10%. Denison is a uranium exploration and development company with interests focused in the Athabasca Basin region of northern Saskatchewan, Canada with a head office in Toronto, Ontario and technical office in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. Historically Denison has had over 50 years of uranium mining experience in Saskatchewan, Elliot Lake, Ontario, and in the United States. Today, the company is part owner (22.5%) of the McClean Lake Joint Venture which includes the operating McClean Lake uranium mill in northern Saskatchewan. To advance the Project, Denison is applying an innovative approach to uranium mining in Canada called in situ recovery (ISR). The use of ISR mining at Wheeler means that there will be no need for a large open pit mining operation or multiple shafts to access underground mine workings; no workers will be underground as the ISR process is conducted from surface facilities.

  • 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.

    University of Alberta Politics, Power, and Environmental Governance: A Comparative Case Study of Three Métis Communities in Northwest Saskatchewan by Bryn Alan Politylo A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies and Research in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Rural Sociology Department of Resource Economics and Environmental Sociology ©Bryn Alan Politylo Fall 2011 Edmonton, Alberta Permission is hereby granted to the University of Alberta Libraries to reproduce single copies of this thesis and to lend or sell such copies for private, scholarly or scientific research purposes only. Where the thesis is converted to, or otherwise made available in digital form, the University of Alberta will advise potential users of the thesis of these terms. The author reserves all other publication and other rights in association with the copyright in the thesis and, except as herein before provided, neither the thesis nor any substantial portion thereof may be printed or otherwise reproduced in any material form whatsoever without the author's prior written permission. Abstract Recently northwest Saskatchewan has seen a rapid push towards large-scale development corresponding with a shifting political economy in the province. For the rights- bearing Métis people of northwest Saskatchewan this shift significantly influences provincial environmental governance, which affects the agency of Métis people to participate in natural resource management and decision-making in the region. To examine the agency and power of Métis communities in provincial natural resource management and decision-making, qualitative methods and a comparative case study of three Métis communities were used to analyze and interpret the social spaces that Métis people occupy in provincial environmental governance.

  • 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.
