Survey Description
Rock, soil and vegetation geochemical samples were collected from transects adjacent to and crosscutting rare-earth element (REE)-enriched mineralization in the Eden Lake intrusion. No sampling year was stated.
A variety of vegetation samples were collected, including black spruce and Jack pine (needles, twigs, bark) as well as birch and alder (twigs and leaves). Samples were collected over and adjacent to the mineralized zone. Soil samples were collected from 25 locations corresponding to alder twig sampling sites. Approximately 0.5 kg of B-horizon soils were collected at each site from hand-dug pits. Rock chip samples were collected at 10 m intervals along a transect that crosscuts and is perpendicular to the strike of the mineralized zone.
An enzyme leach extraction was used on the soil samples prior to analysis by ICP-MS.
The data are published in Manitoba Industry, Trade and Mines Open File Report OF99-16.
