The 42nd Annual Yellowknife Geoscience Forum was held from November 25 to Thursday, November 27, 2014 in Yellowknife, Northwest Territories. The Yellowknife Geoscience Forum is the pre-eminent northern geoscience conference and trade show, promoting the immense and untapped resource potential of the Northwest Territories and Nunavut. The event provides a setting for the exchange of information on mineral and petroleum exploration, mining activities, and geoscience research in Canada’s north.
As always, the Department of Culture and Lands Protection (DCLP) had a display booth where staff explained to the world everything Tłı̨chǫ. There were also opportunities for presentations. Sjoerd van der Wielen, Lands Manager, held a presentation updating the public about the Community Based Marian Watershed Monitor Program, which was held in Shoti Lake and Gamètì this fall. Overall the Geoscience Forum was a success and the Tłı̨chǫ Government were well represented!
