The regional stream survey for Ashcroft Brtish Columbia (NTS 92I) was conducted during the summer of 1981.
This report presents analytical and statistical data for 14 elements in stream sediments from XX XX sample sites, collected at an average density of one sample per 23.4 km². Uranium, fluoride, and pH values in waters from these sites are included in this report.
