New Brunswick Till Compilation Project, 2012-2021



Project Description

The New Brunswick Department of Natural Resources/Department of Energy and Mines (NBDNR/DEM) has collected till samples across the province, and data for samples collected since 1983 have been compiled based on 1:250 000 NTS map sheets.  The compilations include geochemical and other till data (e.g. grain size, pebble lithology, site characteristics) for both previously published information and new, unreleased geochemical data.  The appendices of each compilation are organized based on the 1:50,000 map sheets for the compilation area.
