Fluoride in Till Project, Labrador, 2021-2022



Project Description

Due to the current interest in fluorite and the critical metals associated with fluoride enrichment (e.g., W, Mo, rare-earth elements), fluoride analyses are now a component of the analytical suite for all till-geochemical samples in the province.

Samples from the following areas were analysed for F:
