Eagle Bay drift exploration project, 1996-2000



Project Description

In southern British Columbia, till sampling was carried out in the Adams Plateau-North Barriere Lake area (NTS 82M/4,5) in 1996, in the Louis Creek-Chu Chua Creek area (NTS 92P/1,8) in 1997 and in the Chu Chua-Clearwater (NTS 92P/8,9) and Shuswap Highlands areas (NTS 83M/3, 82L/13,14) in 1998.  The surveys are part of a larger multidisciplinary integrated resource assessment program aimed at defining the mineral potential of south-central British Columbia.  The till geochemistry surveys demonstrate the utility of integrating surficial geology mapping and exploration geochemical methods to located buried mineral deposits in areas of drift-covered terrain.  The data are published in British Columbia Geological Survey Open Files 1997-9 (Adams Plateau-North Barriere Lake), 1998-6 (Louis Creek-Chu Chua), 2000-17 (Chu Chua-Clearwater) and 2000-18 (Shuswap).
