NTGO Non-Renewable Mineral Resource Assessments of Candidate Protected Areas, Northwest Territories, 2007-2012
Project Description
The Northwest Territories Geoscience Office (NTGO) has conducted fieldwork as part of Non-renewable Resource Assessments- Minerals (NRA) of several Candidate Protected Areas as required under the Northwest Territories Protected Areas Strategy (PAS). This strategy outlines a community-based process to establish a network of protected areas across the NWT. It recognizes the need to balance conservation and economic development, while respecting Aboriginal rights, third party interests, and land use planning processes (http://www.nwtpas.ca/about.asp).
The following areas were assessed and published in NWT Open Files by the Northwest Territories Geoscience Office (NTGO):
| NTS | Candidate Protected Area | Year of Collection | NWT Open File |
| 106G, H, I, J | Ts'ude niline Tu'eyeta | 2007-2008 | 2010-07 |
| 85D, 95A, B, H | Sambaa K'e | 2008 | 2010-08 |
| 85C, D, E, F | Ka'a'gee Tu | 2009 | 2011-01 |
| 95L, M, N, 96C, D, 105I, O, P, 106A, B, H | Shúhtagot'ine Néné | 2009-2010 | 2012-01 |
