The regional stream survey for west-central Manitoba (NTS 63N, parts of 63K and 63O) was conducted during the summer of 1985.

This report presents analytical and statistical data for 17 elements in stream sediments from 1 524 sample sites, collected at an average density of one sample per 13 km². Loss-on-ignition in sediments, and uranium, fluoride, and pH values in waters from these sites are included in this report.
