Previous OF publication(s):
Province / Territory: Yukon
Funding Source: Federal and Territorial
Year of Collection: 1995
# Lake sites: 0
# Stream sites: 1117
Survey Area: 16330 km²
NTS Sheet(s): 095D, 105A
The regional stream survey for southeastern Yukon (NTS 95D and 105A) was conducted during the summer of 1995.
Geological Survey of Canada (GSC) Open File 3293 presents analytical and statistical data for 36 elements in sediments from 1 117 stream sites, collected at an average density of one sample per 14.6 km². Loss-on-ignition in sediments, and uranium, fluoride, and pH values in waters from these sites are included in this report.
