Survey Description


A total of 248 till samples weighing 2-3 kg each were collected from the C-horizon, road cuts or natural sections in the Gillam area, northeast Manitoba:

 

Year Number of Surface Till Samples Number of Subsurface Till Samples
2013 45 18
2014 103 38
2015 44 0

 

The data are published in Manitoba Geological Survey Data Repository Item DRI2020005.

The data are also part of two compilations in Manitoba Agriculture and Resource Development open files OF2020-2 and OF2020-3.

The geographic extent of the survey is defined by the following polygons:

  • Covers very small parts of NTS 64A/01 (Split Lake; 1 sample) and 64A/08 (Crying Lake; 1 sample) in northeast Manitoba.  It is located just north of Split Lake and its western edge is approximately 10 km from where the Burntwood and Nelson rivers enter Split Lake.

  • Covers most of NTS 54D (Kettle Rapids) and a small part of 54C (Hayes River) in the Gillam area, northeast Manitoba.  The study area is centred around the town of Gillam, Stephens Lake and the Nelson River east of Gillam.
