The regional stream survey for southwestern Yukon (Parts of NTS 115A and 115B) was conducted during the summer of 1993.

This report presents analytical and statistical data for 36 elements in stream sediments from 623 sample sites, collected at an average density of one sample per 12.6 km². Loss-on-ignition in sediments, and uranium, fluoride, and pH values in waters from these sites are included in this report.

Acknowledgements:

The reconnaissance surveys were managed by the Geological Survey of Canada in conjunction with the Department of Indian Affairs and Northern Development, Whitehorse, Yukon.

The survey was undertaken under the auspices of the Canada - Yukon Mineral Resource Development Cooperation Agreement (1991-1996).

P.W.B. Friske directed the survey, coordinating the activities of contract and Geological Survey of Canada staff.

Other information:

The original 'hardcopy' open file was released in 1994 (field and analytical data were available separately on diskette). This open file was superseded in 2001 (with the same GSC open file number) by a digital version on CD-ROM. The digital releases were financed under the Yukon Geology Program which includes the Economic Development Branch of Yukon Government and Exploration and Geological Services Division (EGSD) of the Department of Indian Affairs and Northern Development.
