Côte-Nord lake sediment project, 1987-2003



Project Description

Lake sediments were collected in the Fermont, Havre-St. Pierre and Blanc-Sablon areas in the Côte-Nord region, Quebec.  The goals of the project were:

  • to identify the various multi-element geochemical signals associated with the various geological units in the area;
  • to highlight the geochemical dispersion that could be caused by mineralization
  • to highlight the metalliferous potential of the region and provide strategic targets for mineral exploration

The following reports were published:
