Open File 4112

Open File:  4112
Previous OF publication(s):  
Province / Territory:  New Brunswick
Funding Source:  Federal and Provincial
Year of Collection:  2000

Survey Type:  Regional Stream Survey
# Lake sites:  0
# Stream sites:  868
Survey Area:  2130 km²

The regional stream survey for central New Brunswick (NTS 21J/06 and 21J/10) was conducted during the summer of 2000.

This report presents analytical and statistical data for 48 elements in stream sediments from 868 sample sites, collected at an average density of one sample per 2.5 km². Loss-on-ignition in sediments, and uranium, conductivity, and pH values in waters from these sites are included in this report.
