The regional lake sediment and water survey for northeastern Saskatchewan (NTS 64E and parts of 74A and 74H) was conducted during the summer of 1984.

This report presents analytical and statistical data for gold and 25 other elements obtained by re-analyzing lake sediments from 1,178 sites, collected at an average density of one sample per 16.0 km². Original analytical data selected from Open File 1106 (published 1985) for 16 variables in sediments, and uranium, fluoride, and pH values in lake waters are also included in this report.
