The AGS is excited to attend the #CIMConnect2024 conference from May 12-15! We're highlighting some of the great work that is underway as part of our Mineral Mapping program in Alberta. If you are attending, please stop by the exhibition hall and visit us at booth #325 or –in the meantime, learn more about our Mineral Mapping Program: https://lnkd.in/gAQfS7xk   #geology #science #minerals #ABEnergy #AGS #geologyrocks #cimconnect2024

Explore the location of mineral occurrences and energy infrastructure in Alberta with the new Geology, Minerals, and Energy Infrastructure Interactive Mapping Application! This web-based interactive dashboard contains a combination of datasets from the Alberta Geological Survey, Alberta Energy Regulator and Government of Alberta, and enables users the ability to interact with these datasets all in a single, unified mapping application.     Datasets available in this application currently include surficial geology, mineral occurrences, AER-regulated assets, energy agreements and more. This application provides an opportunity for users to choose and explore the various aspects of Alberta’s geology, minerals, and energy infrastructure data that they are interested to learn more about.   A special thanks to the First Nations, Métis communities, and non-industry stakeholders across Alberta for their feedback and who helped shape this important new interactive tool.    Access the application: https://lnkd.in/gRmtzq_K Watch the video tutorial on how to navigate the application: https://lnkd.in/gyCc45F3 Learn more about this application: https://lnkd.in/g38KZC7c #geology #science #minerals #ABEnergy #AGS #geologyrocks

Thank you to everyone who connected with us at #AMERoundup2024! What an amazing opportunity to participate, engage with you, and share information with one another! The Alberta Geological Survey (AGS) and Alberta Energy Regulator (AER) enjoyed the opportunity to connect with you all at AME Roundup!   Learn more about us on our website: https://ags.aer.ca/       #AGSAER2024 #AMERoundup2024 #geology #science #minerals #ABEnergy #AGS #geologyrocks #thankyou

The Aberta Geological Survey (AGS) and Alberta Energy Regulator (AER) are enjoying all the great conversations we’ve had at #AMERoundup2024! Come by booths #501 & #503 before the conference ends to chat with us about mineral resources in Alberta! Our poster summarizing our 2023 field activities is still up in Ballroom C on board 5.  Learn more about us on our website: https://ags.aer.ca/            #geology #science #minerals #ABEnergy #AGS #geologyrocks #AGSAER2024 

Come check out our poster at #AMERoundup2024! “Critical Mineral Systems of the Alberta Shield —Summary of 2023 Field Activities”. The poster showcases the Alberta Geological Survey’s 2023 field work in northeastern Alberta, performed as part of the Mineral Mapping Program (https://lnkd.in/gAQfS7xk) . More detail can be found in the newly published report - Summary of 2023 Field Activities: Leland Lakes and Andrew Lake Areas, Canadian Shield, northeastern Alberta (https://lnkd.in/gF_cFij2). You can find the poster in Ballroom C at board 5, and we’ll be there at minimum during the daily networking sessions from 4-5 pm. We’re looking forward to chatting in the poster session and at the AGS and AER booths (#501 & #503)!        #geology #science #minerals #ABEnergy #AGS #geologyrocks #AGSAER2024 #AMEroundup2024
