This report completes a reconnaissance mapping program covering some 160 000square km of terrain mostly within the Precambrian Shield of north-centralManitoba. Field work, begun in 1971 and completed in 1973, was conducted bya three man, helicopter supported mapping party. It entailed ground andaerial observations in selected localities within various map unitsdelineated on the basis of airphoto interpretation.

The report and accompanying map describe and interpret the terrain conditions across 48,000 km2 of the coast and hinterland of Hudson Bay. The surface mapping of materials was combined with a study of river exposures in order to reconstruct the preglacial and glacial evolution of the landscape, and postglacial changes in permafrost, climate, and sea level. The geological interpretation was used to locate anomalously high concentrations of minerals of economic value, including gold and uranium, assess aggregate sources, identify areas of sensitive permafrost terrain, and to predict future environmental change.

Excerpt from Geology and Minerals of Manitoba: Prepared for the Instruction and Guidance of Those Prospecting in Manitoba It will be convenient to describe here a number of minerals that enter into the composition of rocks. Most of them are alike in composition In that they are partly composed of silica, the substance of which quartz is completely composed.

The landscape of Northwestern Manitoba is typical of much of the Canadianmidnorth. The area includes an extensive tract of muskeg in the south, which passes through boreal forest to tundra barrens. Some parts of theregion lie within the zone of continuous permafrost; others lie in thedescontinuous permafrost zole. Major lanscape elements were shaped inpre-Quaternary times, but most surface deposits and landforms are the resultof the last contental glaciaion and the subsequent inundation of glaciallakes and the sea. This report was written in response to a need for information on terrain conditions related to engineering construction, andon glacial transport patterns as they relate to drift prospecting and mineralexploration.
