Survey Description

During the summer of 1988, truck-supported stream sediment and water sampling was carried out in northeastern New Brunswick. Samples were collected at an average density of one sample per 2 km ² throughout the 1,050 km ² survey area. Sample site duplicate samples were routinely collected in each analytical block of twenty samples. The data are published in Geological Survey of Canada Open File 1955.

This survey was carried out using National Geochemical Reconnaissance (NGR) protocols.
