Abstract
This paper provides a brief summary of the fieldwork performed during the 2002 field season as part of the Churchill River-Southern Indian Lake Targeted Geoscience Initiative. This was the second of two field seasons directed at upgrading our understanding of the lithological and tectonic framework of the northern flank of the Trans-Hudson Orogen, with a main objective of providing a regional geological context to potential ore deposits. During this past field season, the transect from the central part of the Rusty Lake belt was completed southwards to the northern flank of the Burntwood Group in the Kisseynew Domain. Detailed reports and maps are pending on upcoming geochronological and geochemical analyses, and will be published within the coming months as open files.
