                  <p>During a three-week period in June 1979, vegetation and soil samples were collected in the McClean Lake (142 sites) and McMahon Lakes (323 sites) areas of the NEA/IAEA Test Area, northern Saskatchewan.  Sites were at 30 m intervals along several survey lines.  At each site A<sub>H</sub> and B<sub>F</sub> soils (or peat, in their absence) were collected.  Samples of Labrador tea and black spruce trunk were also collected.  At every fifth site, Labrador tea roots and black spruce twigs were collected, as well as leather leaf stems and leaves where present.</p>
                  <p>In 1980, field work was again conducted in early June to minimize seasonal variations in U uptake.  Above the McClean zone samples were collected at 30 m intervals (with a few at 15 m).  At a distance of 1 km on either side of the mineralization the sampling interval was increased to 60 m.  Tissues collected were twigs, needles, cones, bark, trunk and roots.  All common species of plants were sampled and peat or A<sub>H</sub> and B<sub>F</sub> soils were collected at many sites; however, in light of results obtained the previous year, emphasis was placed on black spruce twigs.  Several tests were conducted to ascertain variations in and among species and local variations.</p>
                  <p>In 1981 additional detailed sampling of black spruce twigs was conducted and a regional component to the studies was added in order to define the limits of what was emerging as the immense ‘Wollaston U Biogeochemical Anomaly’.</p>
                  <p>An interpretation of the work can be found in GSC Paper 82-11 and JGE v.15.</p>

                        <p>En juin 1979, pendant une période de trois semaines, des échantillons de végétation et de sol ont été recueillis dans les régions du lac McClean (142 sites) et des lacs McMahon (323 sites) de la zone d’essai de l’AEN/AIEA, dans le nord de la Saskatchewan. Les sites d’échantillonnage étaient espacés de 30 m le long de plusieurs lignes de levé. En chacun des sites, on a prélevé des échantillons des sols A<sub>H</sub> et B<sub>F</sub> (ou de la tourbe, en l’absence de sol). Des échantillons de tiges de thé du Labrador et de tronc d’épinette noire ont également été recueillis. Tous les cinq sites, des racines de thé du Labrador et des brindilles d’épinette noire ont été recueillies, de même que des tiges et des feuilles du petit-daphné caliculé, lorsque présent.</p>
                        <p>En 1980, des travaux sur le terrain ont encore été effectués au début du mois de juin afin de réduire au minimum les variations saisonnières de l’absorption d’uranium. Au-dessus de la zone McClean, les échantillons ont été recueillis à des intervalles de 30 m (quelques-uns de 15 m).  À une distance de 1 km de part et d’autre de la minéralisation, l’intervalle d’échantillonnage a été augmenté à 60 m.  Les tissus suivants ont été prélevés : brindilles, aiguilles, cônes, écorce, bois de tronc et racines.  Toutes les espèces communes de plantes ont été échantillonnées et de la tourbe et des sols de type A<sub>H</sub> et B<sub>F</sub> ont été recueillis dans de nombreux sites; cependant, à la lumière des résultats obtenus l’année précédente, on a mis l’accent sur la collecte de brindilles d’épinette noire.  Plusieurs essais ont été effectués afin de vérifier les variations dans les espèces et entre elles, ainsi que les variations locales.</p>
                        <p>En 1981, un échantillonnage supplémentaire de brindilles d’épinette noire a été exécuté et un volet régional a été ajouté aux études afin de déterminer les limites de ce qui allait devenir l’immense « anomalie biogéochimique de la concentration en U de Wollaston ».</p>
                        <p>On peut trouver une interprétation de ces travaux dans l’étude 82-11 de la CGC et dans Journal of Geochemical Exploration, vol. 15.</p>
