Survey Description


In 1997 and 1998, a total of 178 till samples were collected from surface exposures in southeastern Manitoba.  The data (including for indicator minerals) are published in Manitoba Geological Survey Open File 2009-13 along with data from samples collected south of the area and previously published in Geological Survey of Canada Open File 2750.

The data are also part of two compilations in Manitoba Agriculture and Resource Development open files OF2020-2 and OF2020-3.
