Bundle Description

Geochemical results of till samples collected in the Nepisiguit Lakes region (21O/07), north central New Brunswick.

The <63 micron fraction of till was analysed for 34 trace elements using instrumental neutron activation analysis (INAA).  Atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) with an air acetylene flame was used to determine 9 trace elements (Ag, Cd, Co, Cu, Fe, Mn, Ni, Pb, Zn).  Determination of Mo and V was done by atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) using a nitrous oxide acetylene flame.  Sn was determined by hydride atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS).  As and Sb were determined by atomic absorption spectrometry using a hydride evolution method (HY-AAS).  Fluorine (F) was determined using a fluoride ion specific electrode (F ISE).  Hg was analysed using cold vapour atomic absorption spectrometry (Hg-CVAAS).  Uranium was determined using a neutron activation method with delayed neutron counting (U NADNC).  Loss on ignition (LOI) was determined using a 500 mg sample.  The analyses were carried out by Bondar-Clegg and Company Ltd. in Vancouver, British Columbia.
