This
tool lets you discover more about Canada's natural resources, in 3 broad
categories: Mining, Forestry and Energy. These 3 areas fall
within NRCan's mandate, though the nation's resource base encompasses numerous
other areas -- such as fishing, agriculture, trapping & hunting-- which
generally fall under the food production umbrella. NRCan, on the
other hand, concerns itself with the "hard" natural resources that make
up an integral part of Canada's land mass.
Clicking
the "Key Regional Datasets" link below launches the 
to search a database of thousands
of information products, with pre-defined search criteria that are
unique to Regional Lens. Most important is that natural resource
information products are extracted keyed to a specific region of Canada
(see map below). The database is dynamic, and is being continuously
updated. That means that every week, your search could return different
and newer results -- so come back often!
