University secures provincial funding to study how critical minerals and gold deposits are formed

Lakehead University’s department of geology has received $2 million in provincial funding to develop a new model for mineral exploration in Northern Ontario.

A team that will involve 30 graduate students and post-doctoral fellows will work on a range of sites where the researchers will develop models that can be applied to create more efficient exploration in Canada. The funding is coming from the Research Excellence program within the Ministry of Colleges and Universities' Ontario Research Fund.

“We will develop an innovative research hub at Lakehead University that will train a diverse group of highly qualified people in a wide range of traditional and state of the art techniques,” Hollings said.
