Electromagnetic (EM) methods are commonly used for geophysical exploration in various applications such as mineral exploration, hydrocarbon detection, management of fresh and salt water and CO2 and reservoir monitoring. While in the past, EM methods suffered from expensive data collection, new systems now collect massive amounts of data over space and time, and new instrumentation […]

One-third of the world’s demand for potash is being supplied by Saskatchewan. The potash mining industry is thus a core element driving rapid economic development in the province. However, potash mining operations generate a substantial volume of highly saline mine wastewater. There are strong demands for mitigating the salinity of potash mine water in Saskatchewan. […]

Ce projet vise à donner des expériences de stage appliqué de 4 mois dans le domaine de l’exploration/exploitation minière à des étudiants/étudiantes en géologie au niveau maîtrise. Ces stages seront accueillis par des compagnies d’exploration, d’exploitation ou de service basées au Canada à la recherche de différents types de minéralisation sur des propriétés minières dont […]

Classification and separation of solid particles immersed within an air stream plays a crucial role in aerosol separation, air filtration, fine particle recovery, and many other applications. Particle separators divide a mixture of different-sized solid particles in a flowing gas stream into fine and coarse streams. IMASCO Minerals produces ultrafine dry ground calcium carbonate (CaCO3) […]

This project will carry out original research of a prospective lode gold system located on the western shore of Hudson’s Bay. The location is near the hamlet of Whale Cove. The gold mineralization is intrusive-related, very similar to that of the well known deposits of the Porcupine and Kirkland Lake camps of the southern Abitibi. […]

Il y a un nombre croissant de technologiques disponibles pour faire le suivi du comportement des infrastructures minières en utilisant des capteurs montés sur des drones. La neige accumulée sur les infrastructures minières telles que les parcs à résidus miniers représente une composante importante de l’inventaire annuel de l’eau. Au printemps, la fonte de la […]

This project aims to develop an advanced system for interpreting X-ray diffraction (XRD) data and classifying it based on insights provided by Subject Matter Experts (SMEs). XRD is a critical analytical technique used across various industries, including materials science, geology, and geophysics, to determine the crystallographic structure of materials. However, the raw spectra generated from […]

This project would seek to develop an integrated system incorporating a reverse water gas shift (RWGS) reactor to convert carbon dioxide and hydrogen into carbon monoxide and water, aiming for maximum production of carbon monoxide. RWGS is an endothermic, catalytic, equilibrium-limited reaction, so the project team will seek to develop efficient, novel catalysts and supports, […]

Sulphur dioxide is an important atmospheric pollutant that can negatively impact the surrounding environment through the processes of wet and dry deposition. Although wet deposition can be measured directly in the field, dry deposition must be estimated from air concentrations and modelled dry deposition velocity. The versatile “big-leaf” deposition model is frequently used to estimate […]

The first initial buildup of oxygen in the Earth’s atmosphere – the Great Oxidation Event – started around 2.5 billion years ago, where oxygen may have reached levels comparable to today’s atmosphere. Following its debut, atmospheric oxygen levels quickly crashed, coinciding with a contraction of the global biosphere. The geologic time period of the Orosirian […]

The main objective of this project is to conduct a comprehensive data analysis of the full scale ice impact measurement and temperature measurements taken on board an Arctic tanker and compare with existing data sets and analytical models. The results will be used in support of developing and improving ice class rules, design criteria, and […]

Leak detection and location identification of leakage of arctic pipelines in a timely manner is very important because the economic impact of an oil spill to its stakeholders can be huge. It could have an adverse impact on life, the environment, the economy and corporate reputation. In this study a numerical investigations will be employed […]
