The trees in Stanley Park may be hundreds of years old but the park�s history started long before then. Join us for a walk along the beautiful Stanley Park Seawall to explore the geological history and formation of the area. This interactive field trip will provide teachers with the resources and knowledge to conduct an in-person or virtual Stanley Park GeoTour with their own classes.

Brian McNulty
Brian is an economic geologist focused on applied research to understand ore deposit systems and develop criteria for mineral exploration. I am interested in the petrochronology of primary and secondary minerals to define the temporal evolution of ore deposit systems. I am also interested in the application of field-based mineralogical and geochemical methods to quantify and characterize the affects of hydrothermal alteration in ore deposits. My current research focuses on mineral economics. In particular, assessing the tellurium production potential of gold tellurides with Dr. Simon Jowitt.
