* This dataset is updated on a daily basis. The ‘Record Modified’ date refers to the last metadata update. This dataset contains the extent of mineral leases in Nunavut. A mineral lease is a mineral claim that has been surveyed by a Canada Lands Surveyor. A mineral lease can be applied for after an exploration prospecting company has done a minimum of representation work in the claim area and if a legal survey on the claim has been recorded. A mineral lease is required for disposal or sale of minerals or of a gross value of more than $100,000 in one year.

It includes mineral claims, mining leases, prospecting permits as well as coal exploration licences.

To support the implementation of the Impact Assessment Act, Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) received funding over  five years (2018-23) for cumulative effects research to be conducted by three of NRCan’s science sectors – the Canada Centre for Mapping and Earth Observation within the Strategic Policy and Innovation Sector, the Canadian Forest Service, and the Geological Survey of Canada within the Lands and Minerals Sector – to conduct key earth observation, forest, and geoscience research. The overarching goal of this research is to inform regional assessment and related impact assessment processes, with a central focus on making the science and knowledge generated open and accessible to the public via the Open Science and Data Platform . Projects from all three sectors generated authoritative data on the status and trends of ecosystem parameters, as well as provided unique science and technical analysis, synthesis and advice on topics related to the cumulative effects of natural resource development. This Story Map synthesizes the cumulative effects science generated over the past five years. Through the Story Map platform, we hope to illustrate the national scale of this research program and the diversity of locations in Canada within which research has been conducted.

* This dataset is updated on a daily basis. The ‘Record Modified’ date refers to the last metadata update. This dataset contains the extent of mineral claims held in Nunavut. A mineral claim is an area of Crown Land that is selected using the Nunavut Map Selection system by an individual or mineral exploration company that holds a valid licence to prospect. This grants the individual or mineral exploration company the mineral rights to the recorded area as provided for under the Nunavut Mining Regulations, SOR/2014-69. If the holder of a mineral claim wishes to produce minerals from the claim, or to hold it for more than thirty years, the holder must apply for a lease of the claim. This digital coverage provides a record and tracking mechanism for mining exploration in Nunavut. For more information, visit https://www.rcaanc-cirnac.gc.ca/eng/1100100036000/1547749889500.

* This dataset is updated on a daily basis. The ‘Record Modified’ date refers to the last metadata update. This dataset contains the extent of prospecting permits in Nunavut. A prospecting permit allows prospecting in a large area without competition for a period of three or five years, and gives the holder the exclusive rights to select a mineral claim within that area.
