The regional stream survey for southern Yukon (NTS 115I) was conducted during the summer of 1985.

This report presents analytical and statistical data for 20 elements in stream sediments from 951 sample sites, collected at an average density of one sample per 12.1 km². Loss-on-ignition in sediments, and uranium, fluoride, and pH values in waters from these sites are included in this report.
