EXTECH IV: Athabasca Uranium multidisciplinary study
Co-ordination

Project Coordinators:
Charlie Jefferson, Geological Survey of Canada
Gary Delaney, Saskatchewan Geological Survey

Database Sub-project leader:
Bill Slimmon, Saskatchewan Geological Survey

The purpose of this sub-project is to better understand the basement geology of the Athabasca Basin and its influence on mineralization. A key component will be detailed studies of the structural history of the basement/cover rocks at some of the major uranium deposits with the objective of attempting to determine the role of structure in the localization of uranium mineralization.

Admonition

Key phases of EXTECH IV coordination, which will be developed in consultation with the steering committee include:

  1. Development, integration and implementation of detailed project proposals.
  2. Development of a project Web site.
  3. Compilation of a project GIS database.
  4. Development of communications strategy including identification of project reports (ie journal papers, government publications, special volumes etc).
