Survey Description


In 1994, samples were collected in the Flin Flon area, Manitoba:

 

Sample Type Number of Samples Geochemical Analysis
till 195 from 144 sites

<2 µm by ICP-ES

<63 µm by INAA
humus 144 -10 mesh by ICP-ES

 

A summary of the work is found in Manitoba Energy and Mines Report of Activities 1994 (p. 81-82).

The data are published in Manitoba Agriculture and Resource Development Data Repository Item DRI2020015 and are part of compilation open file OF2020-2.
