Madagascar. I served as the structural geologist on a team of about 20 geologists including mineral resource experts, geological mappers, cartographers, and others who together remapped and prepared an assessment of the economic non-fuel resources of Madagascar, to be used to help the economic development of this poor nation. As the structural geologist I was in charge of integrating the mapping data of the different mapping teams to form a coherent structural and tectonic evolution of the micro-continent.

U.S. National Science Foundation, Archean Tectonics and Oceanic Records in the North

China Craton. I was the P.I. on two NSF projects, aimed at understanding the early development of plate tectonics, oceanic crust, and life as preserved in rocks of the North China craton. I was also a co-Investigator or collaborator on several other related projects in China that I organized with colleagues. Including are a Natural National Science Foundation Grant from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, a Petrology and Geochemistry grant from the US National Science Foundation, and a grant from NSERC in Canada.

U.S. Geological Survey, Early Tertiary Slab Window in Alaska and its Resource

Implications. This project tests the hypothesis that a gap between two subducting plates is responsible for a wide array of geologic features across an enormous area in Alaska, Yukon, and British Columbia, including plutons, volcanic fields, sedimentary basins, ore deposits, and hydrocarbon systems. The gap, or "slab window", was analogous to a moving blowtorch heating the earth's crust from below. A few previous studies have found links between a slab window and particular examples of mineral deposits, but never has a systematic study sought to understand slab window tectonics on a regional scale, to incorporate key findings into ore deposit models, or to test the applicability of this concept to petroleum maturation or migration--principles that can be applied worldwide. I have been involved in this multidisciplinary, multiyear, multimillion-dollar investigation of the Alaskan slab window hypothesis as a formal university collaborator (http://minerals.usgs.gov/west/projects/slabdel.shtml), and have my expenses and research costs covered by the USGS. We are currently working on using this model to

11

provide a unifying explanation for disparate geologic features across an area encompassing most of Alaska and part of neighboring British Columbia and Yukon Territory.

Embassy of the Arab Republic of Egypt. Research Utilizing Remote Sensing and

Field Data to Investigat the Tectonics of Egypt. This project was for combining field structural analysis of the Precambrian areas of Egypt with new techniques of remote sensing to devise new methods of mapping, and locate significant mineral resource deposits. It has included 3 PhD students under my supervision.

U.S. National Science Foundation, Proterozoic Development of Gondwana, Formation of

Supercontinents, and the Explosion of Life at the Dawn of the Phanerozoic. I was the P.I. on two U.S. National Science Foundation grants to study the formation and break up of the supercontinent of Gondwana, and to model the implications about global tectonics and the relationships between tectonics and life on earth. The largest explosion of new species and diversification of existing fauna is associated with the formation and break up of Gondwana, and understanding the links between these systems is critical for understanding our place in the universe. The two grants were to study the structural geology and remote sensing of a complexly deformed group of metasedimentary rocks (the Itremo Group) that were deposited in an ocean that separated different blocks of Gondwana, and were deformed when the blocks collided. The other proposal was to study, by field and satellite remote sensing methods, the proposed suture line across which different continental block collided. These studies are related to my previous and on-going work in the Arabian Shield, much of which is now published in a Special Volume of Precambrian Research that I edited for Elsevier.

United Arab Emirates, Sharjah Electricity and Water Authority (2001-2004). Contract

to combine field studies with an analysis of several types of remotely-sensed imagery, to assess the ground water potential of Sharjah and the other northern Emirates, including Ajman, Umm al Qawain, Ras al Khaimeh, and Fujaireh.

Boston University, Contract with Ministry of Water Resources, Sultanate of Oman

(1996-2000). I supervised a medium-sized research group in the Center for Remote Sensing at Boston University. This group included four research faculty, two research staff members, five Ph.D. students, four M.A. students, and several undergraduate work-study students. The research project entitled “Utilizing Satellite Images for Ground Water Exploration of the Sultanate of Oman” was a multi-disciplinary project that integrated remote sensing, GIS, structural geology, geomorphology, hydrogeology, tectonics, economics, and politics, and hazard assessment. More than two million dollars of grant money was used for field work, satellite image purchases, and salaries for faculty and students working on the project. The main aim of the project was assessment of long-term strategic ground water resources for the Sultanate of Oman. I managed the scientific and operational work of the other team members, and I also interpreted satellite imagery (including TM, MSS, JRS-1, Radarsat, IRS, etc.) of the entire country, making thematic maps of faults, drainage networks, and integrating this

12

with geologic and hydrologic data to assess ground water resources, and supervised creation of a GIS database for data manipulation. I organized and ran weekly meetings for the team, and quarterly meetings with the funding agency in Oman for review. I also supervised 8 weeks of field work per year, during which time I trained Omani Nationals in the field, and presented the results of the research to the Director’s of the different branches of the Oman Ministry of Water Resources, including the Minister of Water Resources.

U.S. National Science Foundation, (1997-2001). “Emplacement of the ultramafic massifs of

the Kenai Peninsula, Alaska and their possible relationship to the Border Ranges fault system”. I was the principal investigator on a project aimed at mapping, characterization, and interpretation of ultramafic massifs and associated chromite deposits (including Red Mountain, one of the Nation’s strategic mineral deposits) on the Kenai Peninsula, Alaska and assessment of potential for unidentified platinum group element deposits. I organized a multidisciplinary team of scientists including structural geologists, geochemists, petrologists, geochronologists, and a biostratigrapher, as well as several students, to work on this project, and published the results in international journals.

Embassy of the Arab Republic of Egypt (1995-2000), Cultural and Educational Bureau.

“Structural Evolution of the Feiran-Solaf Metamorphic Belt, South West Sinai”. I was the principal investigator on this project involving field mapping of a structurally complex metamorphic belt, including an assessment of the belt’s mineral potential, plus establishing the timing of deformation events through U/Pb geochronology. I supervised the work of one student on this project, and directed the field work, analysis of data, and writing up of results.

United States Geological Survey, Venture Capital Fund (1998-1999). I was co-

Investigator on a project entitled “Synthetic Aperture radar as an aid to reconnaissance geologic mapping in Alaska”. The project was aimed at testing radar imagery as a tool to regional mapping and mineral exploration in central Alaska, and included integrating field work in central Alaska with developing new fields in remote sensing.

Royal Embassy of Saudi Arabia (1996-2000). I designed and supervised a research project

funded through the Saudi Arabian Embassy, including development of several proposals, submittal and funding, and reporting of scientific results in international journals and at national scientific meetings. The project included structural analysis of the Najd fault system, aimed at understanding the geometry and kinematics of the faults, and their potential for hosting mineral deposits and ground water resources in fractured reservoirs. Project also included analysis of Landsat TM imagery, field investigations of faults,

13

sedimentology, and synthesis of the data into a global tectonic model. A separate project that I designed, received funding for, and directed included U/Pb zircon dating of the Jibalah Group, Saudi Arabia including field collection of samples, to constrain timing of basin formation, and to assess regional significance of the Najd fault system.

United States Geological Survey, Western Minerals Team (1996-1998). I was a lead

member of a project entitled “Synthetic-aperture radar data as an aid to geologic mapping in interior Alaska”, funded by the USGS Venture Capital Fund (D. Bradley, project chief). This study has explored the value of Radarsat and Landsat TM satellite imagery in two trial areas in Alaska, to supplement ongoing minerals-related field efforts under the Alaskan Surveys and Analysis project (D. Bradley, project chief). We have provided remote-sensing interpretations that improve the regional geologic mapping under the Kuskokwim Mineral Belt task (M. Miller, task leader) and the Paleozoic Framework task (J. Dumoulin, task leader). Processing and interpretation of the radar data have been done at Boston University under my direction.

United States Geological Survey (1996). I worked with George Plafker of the U.S.G.S., on

a project focused on the structural Analysis of the McHugh Complex and Mafic and Ultramafic Rocks Along and Near the Border Ranges Fault System, Northern Chugach Mountains, Alaska. I was responsible for several weeks of helicopter supported field work. Follow up work included construction of geological maps, and establishment of structural evolution of this area.

Boston University, UNESCO Project (1995-1996). “Potential ground water accumulations

in fractured bedrock aquifers of the eastern Sahara desert”. International Geological Correlation’s Program (IGCP) Project 391. I was responsible for evaluating the use of satellite imagery (including radar) to interpret the structural controls on ground water in the eastern Sahara Desert. I also published the results in scientific journals, and presented the results at the Workshop on Sand Accumulations and Groundwater in the Sahara, in Cairo, December, 1996.

Boston University, contract with Kuwait Institute of Scientific Research (1995).

Described and documented the environment of Kuwait, and together with a research team from Boston University produced The Environmental Atlas of Kuwait. This book includes hundreds of Landsat images, maps, photographs, and descriptions of the different natural (and human induced) environments of Kuwait, and explanations of each of the illustrated environments. My main responsibility was in interpreting the structural geology and tectonics of the Arabian Gulf and Kuwait, and integrating various other components of the project into a coherent document.

Boston University, contract with Kuwait Institute of Scientific Research (1995).

Assessment of the environmental effects of draining of the southern Iraqi marshes, and the building of the “Third Canal” by the Iraqi government. I was responsible for proposal development, and preliminary analysis of remotely sensed data on the extent of

14

the marsh draining and genocide against the marsh Arabs, and the effects of wind on carrying dust from the dried marshes southward into Kuwait.

Boston University, contract with Ministry of Agriculture, Government of Kuwait (1995).

I was responsible for proposal development and preliminary assessment of the effects of the Gulf war on the breaking of the desert pavement in Kuwait, and the remobilization of sand dune fields NW of Kuwait City. Included a change detection study of the volume of mobile sand prior to and after the Gulf war, using remotely sensed imagery.

Geological Survey of Canada (1994-1995). Structural, Tectonic and Metallogenic Evolution

of the Ungava Peninsula, Canada. I was responsible for designing the research projects of several students, and for supervising and conducting field work focused on gold in Precambrian banded iron formations. Also, I was responsible for writing the results for publication in Geological Survey of Canada publications.

U.S. National Science Foundation, (1993-1995). I was the principal investigator on a

project entitled “Structural and Magmatic Disruption of an Accretionary Wedge During Ridge Subduction, Kenai Peninsula, Southern Alaska”. I directed the research activities of several students through this projects, plus conducted several months of field mapping of plutons associated with ridge subduction, and establishment of the structural and metallogenic evolution of region during ridge subduction. Resulted in determination that gold-quartz veins in the Chugach terrain are diachronous along strike, and associated with 2 specific sets of faults generated by ridge subduction. I reported progress to the funding agency, and published the results in scientific journals, and presented talks resulting from this research at international meetings and through seminars in classes and visits to numerous universities.

Boston University, Contract with the U.S. Department of Agriculture and Egyptian

National Agricultural Research Project (Desert Research Center), Cairo (1992-1994). I was in charge of the scientific and scientific reporting aspects of this project integrating structural geology, remote sensing, hydrology, agriculture, hazards assessment, and development, including the supervision of several students and research faculty. I completed structural analysis of Landsat TM, MSS, and RBV imagery of entire Sinai Peninsula, and integrated this with field studies, hydrologic and meteorological data in a GIS to recommend drilling for ground water in specific sites. Completed detailed assessments for Wadi Feiran, Nekhl, Gebel Maghara, and Wadi Watir. 70% of recommended drilling sites were successful, compared to a previous 30% success rate.

United States Geological Survey, AMRAP, Kenai Mountains, Alaska (as W.A.E., 1991-

1993). Completed geological map of the 1:250,000 scale Seldovia Quadrangle for a regional mineral assessment program (AMRAP). Six months of field mapping was supported by helicopter and marine operations, as well as detailed traverses. My role was principally mapping and analyzing the structural information gathered during the field work, and in writing up the results for publication. Project Chief: D. Bradley.

15

Allied Geophysical Laboratories, Houston TX (1990-1992). Experiments of propagation of P and S waves through scale models of numerous hydrocarbon traps, with a focus on fractured reservoirs. Research was conducted for different (confidential) clients in the petroleum industry.

NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, Laboratory for Terrestrial Physics (1986-1990).

As a graduate student researcher at Goddard Space Flight Center, I initiated a project to test the utility of synthetic aperture radar data for mapping regional structures in a part of the Canadian Shield that I was mapping as part of my Ph.D. work at Johns Hopkins University. I also evaluated radar imagery of Venus, adding the perspective of using similar data from the earth, in places that I mapped in the field, to similar looking features in the Venutian data.

Department of Indian and Northern Affairs, Government of Northwest Territories

(1986-1990). I designed, organized, and received funding for a project including regional structural mapping including exploration for platinum group elements in ultramafic rocks, gold in quartz veins, and VMS deposits in volcanic belts. Completed maps at 1:60,000, 1:30,000, 1:16,000 and more detailed maps of small areas, in the Point Lake, Gordon Lake, Beaulieu River, and Yellowknife Bay areas. I was the supervisor for field crews of 3-10 people, wrote the progress reports to the funding agencies, and published the scientific results in international journals, and presented talks on the subject at national meetings.

Johns Hopkins University, Tectonic Evolution of the Archean Slave Province, (1985). In

1985, I designed and submitted several proposals to U.S. and Canadian Government organizations, as well as to private agencies, about the tectonic evolution of the Slave Province. I was able to secure funding from several agencies (NASA, DINAC, GSA, Sigma Xi) and interest a group of previously unassociated scientists to work with me as part of my team, or as advisors, to answer fundamental questions that I posed for my Ph.D. work. This work, and the resulting publications and discussions at meetings has proven to be fundamental in the way the scientific community now regards the structural, tectonic, and metallogenic evolution of the Slave Province and of Precambrian cratons worldwide, and provided the tectonic framework for the discovery and exploration for diamonds.

NASA/Lunar and Planetary Institute. Synthesis of Proterozoic and Archean Depositional

Data as a Prerequisite to Tectonic and Thermal Modeling. Project involved subsidence modeling of three large sedimentary basins in southern Africa. I was responsible for the main research component of this project, and for the writing up and publication of results in international scientific journals.

State University of New York at Albany (1982-1984). I obtained funds for logistical

support for regional mapping from NORANDA minerals, Canada, with subsidiary support for regional correlations from the Geological Society of America and Sigma Xi. Responsible for establishing the stratigraphy of a group of volcanic and sedimentary

16

rocks in central Newfoundland, their similarity to other sequences, and their potential to host VMS deposits. Included 5 months of regional mapping.

2004 An Expression of Interest by the US Geological Survey to Undertake Geological Mapping

Investigations in Madagascar, proposal, in which I am the only university participant, in which the USGS and British Geological Survey are competing against the French BRGM, South African Survey, Chinese Geological Survey, and maybe others, to land large contracts from the World Bank Development of Madagascar Program. As the only university participant, I would participate in the mapping, and SLU would serve as the educational arm of the project in which we would bring (funded) students from Madagascar to our programs for the duration of the project (5 years). Update--The USGS/BGS team has received an award of 7 million dollars for this, but the contract is not yet signed. When that happens Kusky will be negotiating the SLU subcontract.
