Description

Glacial Sediments and Applied Drift Prospecting (also offered as GEOG 3P94 ) Introductions to the theoretical and practical application drift prospecting techniques and underlying theory as applied in glaciated terrains. Use of glacial soils and sediments as a window into past glacial processes and environmental conditions, permitting reconstruction of past environments and environmental change. Application of all aspects of drift prospecting, including the use of the geochemical, mineralogical, and lithological content of glacial sediments to trace metal-rich debris 'up-ice' to its bedrock source. Lectures, 3 hours per week. Prerequisite(s): ERSC 2P05 , ERSC 3P24 . Note: this course may be offered in multiple modes of delivery. The method of delivery will be listed on the academic timetable, in the applicable term. #
