Bundle Description

Geochemical results of till samples collected in the Forest City (NTS 21G/12) and Fosterville (21G/13) regions, New Brunswick.

The < 63 micron fraction of till was analysed for Zr using instrumental neutron activation analysis (INAA).  Hg was analysed using cold vapour atomic absorption spectrometry (Hg-CVAAS).  Ag, Bi and Cd were analysed by atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS).  The analyses were carried out by Bondar Clegg and Company Ltd. in Vancouver, British Columbia.
