The regional lake survey for central Labrador (NTS 13K) was conducted during the summer of 1983.
This report presents analytical and statistical data for gold and 25 other elements obtained by re-analyzing lake sediments from 954 sites, collected at an average density of one sample per 15.1 km². Original analytical data selected from Open File 997 (published 1983) for 15 elements plus loss-on-ignition in sediments, and uranium, fluoride, and pH values in concomitant waters are also included in this report.

The original reconnaissance surveys werecarried out by the Geological Survey of Canada in conjunction with the Newfoundland Department of Mines and Energy under the terms of the Canada - Newfoundland Cooperative Mineral Program (1982-1984).
Open File 1636 (published 1989) included reanalysis data for part of NTS 13K and was funded under the Canada - Newfoundland Mineral Development Agreement (1984-1989). Analyses of remaining archive samples were undertaken under the Canada - Newfoundland Cooperation Agreement on Mineral Development (1990-1994).
