The Lynn Lake Multidisciplinary Geoscience Project was initiated by Manitoba in 2000 to update the regional geology and mineral potential of the Lynn Lake area. In 2001, the federal government joined the project through a Targeted Geoscience Initiative, with the specific goal of providing a regional tectonostratigraphic context. New data from the project will promote a better understanding of the tectonic evolution of northern Manitoba and thus provide a tectonic context for ore formation and mineralization. (TGI project)
