Predictive surficial materials and surficial geology derived from LANDSAT 7, Upper Carp Lake, NTS 85-P, Northwest Territories; Geological Survey of Canada, Open File 7601. doi:10.4095/293970 Online_Linkage: Description: Abstract: Surficial materials and surficial geology maps provide important geoscience information required for geological reconstructions, mineral exploration and development, and land use planning in northern Canada. In this study, remote predictive mapping was used to map surficial materials and derive surficial geology for Upper Carp Lake NTS 85P, located within the Slave Geological Province. The maps were generated using radiometrically balanced LANDSAT 7 imagery and ancillary data in conjunction with knowledge gained from field observations, airphoto interpretation and legacy datasets. This Open File contains graphical and digital georeferenced versions of the predictive maps. A printable version of the predictive surficial geology map is provided in pdf format (map scale 1:125 000). Purpose: This study was undertaken to produce predictive surficial material and surficial geology maps within the Slave Geological Province mapsheet NTS 85P. Despite the detailed knowledge of bedrock geology in the mineral-rich Slave Geological Province, knowledge of surficial material and surficial geology remain rudimentary. The lack of this geoscience information limits the ability to assess terrain risks associated with various surficial materials and identify granular aggregate along proposed and existing infrastructure corridors (e.g. northern roads). The derived maps may be used for future field mapping campaigns, geotechnical investigations and mineral exploration. Supplemental_Information: Data set is in English.
