The regional stream survey for central Yukon (NTS 105K West and 105L) was conducted during the summer of 1988.

This report presents analytical and statistical data for 20 elements in stream sediments from 1 378 sample sites, collected at an average density of one sample per 12.5 km². Loss-on-ignition in sediments, and uranium, fluoride, and pH values in waters from these sites are included in this report.
