OF2023-1

Indicator mineral and gold grain data from till sampled in the Churchill to Little Churchill rivers area, northeastern Manitoba
by T.J. Hodder and M.S. Gauthier

The Manitoba Geological Survey conducted a till indicator mineral and gold grain count survey in the Churchill to Little Churchill rivers area in 2021. This report releases the visible gold grain and indicator mineral (magmatic or metamorphosed massive-sulphide–indicator minerals) and kimberlite-indicator minerals count data, and provides a preliminary interpretation of the ice-flow direction(s) that deposited the sampled tills. These results are being released before the comprehensive data report to provide the mineral exploration industry timely updates on new geological knowledge.

GEOFILE

GeoFile 6-2023

Manitoba radiocarbon ages
by M.S. Gauthier

This GeoFile provides a digital dataset for radiocarbon ages obtained from samples found in Manitoba, Canada. The compilation currently has 1633 radiocarbon ages obtained for geological or archeological purposes, provided as both conventional radiocarbon ages (14C years BP) and calibrated ages (cal. years BP). This data can be brought into GIS software, and integrated with other data, to further chronological reconstructions in Manitoba.

This publication supersedes Open File OF2021-1.

OF2022-3

Progress report on the study of granitoids in Manitoba: petrogenesis and metallogeny
by X.M. Yang

This report presents petrological and geochemical characteristics of diverse granitoid rocks in 48 intrusions emplaced into various domains (belts) in parts of the western Superior province and Trans-Hudson orogen within Manitoba, and investigates their geodynamic settings, petrogenesis and mineral potential. The major findings of this study are that muscovite- and/or garnet-bearing S-type granitic rocks characterized by low MS values (<0.1 × 10-3 SI unit), ferroan, calcalkaline and strongly peraluminous affinities intruded exclusively into and/or occurred close to collisional (or terrane/domain boundary) zones, which were associated genetically with critical metals (e.g., Li, Ta, Cs, Nb, Be)–enriched pegmatite intrusions. In addition, this report is accompanied by Data Repository Item DRI2022012 and a GIS-based database containing information about the UTM coordinates, field relationship, tectonic unit, petrography, lithogeochemistry and available U-Pb zircon geochronology of 323 granitoid samples collected from these granitoid intrusions.

This publication also includes:

  • ArcGIS shapefiles of the geochemical data
  • Data Repository Item DRI2022012: Whole-rock geochemical and Sm-Nd isotopic data of granitoid rocks from Manitoba (parts of NTS 52E, 52L, 52M, 62I, 62P, 63J, 63P, 64A, 64B, 64C, 64F)
