Mineral resources are an important component of Canada's economy and are necessary to support modernsociety. Such resources are, however, difficult to locate and extract efficiently. Red Pine Exploration is asmall Canadian company that is exploring for gold near Wawa, Ontario. Understanding the chemistry of therocks that host the gold is critical to efficient location of gold-rich rocks in this area. The rocks that host thegold have experienced many, overlapping events, leading to chemical complexity. This project is designed tounravel that complexity by carefully studying the minerals in different assemblages at Wawa and carrying outchemical analyses of the minerals using state-of-the-art techniques that allow the chemical character ofminerals to be determined at a microscopic scale. These data will allow Red Pine Exploration to betterunderstand the chemistry of the rocks that host the mineralization and more efficiently vector towards rockswith high gold grades.

矿产资源是加拿大经济的重要组成部分，是支持现代社会所必需的。然而，这些资源很难有效地找到和提取。红松树勘探公司是一家小型的加拿大公司，正在安大略的瓦瓦附近勘探金矿。了解含金岩石的化学性质对于在该地区有效定位富金矿岩至关重要。孕育黄金的岩石经历了许多重叠的事件，导致化学成分复杂。该项目旨在通过仔细研究瓦瓦不同组合中的矿物，并利用最先进的技术对矿物进行化学分析，从而在微观尺度上确定矿物的化学特性，从而解决这一复杂性。这些数据将使Red Pine Exploration能够更好地了解矿化岩石的化学成分，并更有效地引导高金品位岩石。
