Project Metadata

Soil and till sampling surveys were carried out in the Separation Lake area, northwestern Ontario in 1992-1994.  Orientation surveys were carried out at 4 sites to help characterize the geochemical and heavy mineral signatures associated with different types of known mineralization.  The results of the orientation surveys helped guide interpretation of regional data in order to highlight areas of potential mineralization.  This information may help define exploration targets for gold, base metals, pegmatites and diamond.  The data are published in Ontario Geological Survey Open File Report 5939.

Funding was provided by the Ontario Geological Survey, Ontario Ministry of Northern Development and Mines.
