Fifteen geoscientific knowledge acquisition projects have been completed in 2009-2010. They fall into three categories:
- Far North projects;
- the Copper Plan;
- Quaternary Period projects.
2009-2010 Geoscientific Programming
Most of the geoscience work underway is part of an ambitious plan for accelerated acquisition of geoscientific knowledge in northern Québec, whose development and implementation have been entrusted to Géologie Québec, under Québec’s Mineral Strategy, unveiled in June 2009.
The following technical session, presented during Québec Exploration 2009:
- reviews the government, department and geoscience policies that influenced the development of this knowledge acquisition plan;
- shows the level of geoscientific knowledge available, as well as recent and upcoming projects; and
- presents some already observed effects of the geological, geochemical and geophysical components.
