The Institute on Lake Superior Geology (ILSG) was founded in 1955 "to provide a means whereby geologists in the Great Lakes region may exchange ideas and scientific data; to promote better understanding of the geology of the Lake Superior region, and to plan and conduct geological field trips."
The 52nd Annual Meeting of the Institute on Lake Superior Geology will be held in Sault Ste Marie, Ontario from May 8 to 12, 2006. Co-chairs for this meeting and field trip leaders include several geologists from the Ontario Geological Survey (OGS) as well as two recently retired OGS geologists.
Right on the international border Sault Ste Marie, Ontario is easily accessible for registrants from both Canada and the United States. The city is an ideal location from which to base day-long field trips investigating topics as diverse as the stratigraphy of the Paleoproterozic Huronian Supergroup in the Elliot Lake area, the bedrock shoreline features of Mackinac Island and Archean diamond occurrences in the Wawa area. A technical session highlighting diamond exploration in the Lake Superior basin is planned.
The ILSG returns to Sault Ste Marie for the first time since 1974. Two of the proposed field trips reprise excursions featured then. Although the rocks may not have changed, the ideas about them certainly have and we anticipate plenty of inspired geological discussions
A list of oral and poster presentations will be posted once available. Please check back periodically for information updates as they become available. We look forward to seeing you in the spring.
