Abstract
In 1976 Quaternary mapping in southern Keewatin was continued in the Baker Lake area (NTS 56 D, 66 A, 65 P) and portions of adjoining map-areas. The objectives of this mapping are: (1) to provide a map of surficial deposits suitable for input into environmental studies associated with the proposed eastern arctic gas pipeline; (2) to document and describe the complex ice flow directions associated with the migration of the Keewatin Ice Divide ...; (3) to describe the late-glacial relationship of the Tyrrell Sea to possible freshwater bodies dammed west of the ice divide in the Thelon-Dubawnt system; and (4) to describe the earlier Quaternary history as revealed by borehole data and the study of stratigraphic sections along Kazan, Thelon, Dubawnt, and other rivers.
