Yukon Reanalysis Project for NGR Stream Sediments 2011-2016



Project Description

Between 1976 and 1996, over 31,000 stream sediments samples were collected by the Geological Survey of Canada as part of the National Geochemical Reconnaissance Program (NGR).  Over 18,000 of these samples have been reanalyzed for 51 elements by ICP-MS after an aqua regia digestion by the Yukon Geological Survey (YGS) as part of their 2011 Yukon Database Upgrade Project:

A summary of the status of the stream sediments collected in the Yukon, and an assessment of future analytical strategies and targeted research is published in Yukon Geological Survey Miscellaneous Report MR-1.
