Survey Description


In 2006 and 2008 to 2010, rock samples were collected in the Makkovik area, east-central Labrador. The whole-rock data analyses were compiled from samples collected as part of a B.Sc. thesis (S. Kennedy), part of a M.Sc. thesis (C. LaFlamme) and by the NL Geological Survey.

The data (including for unprocessed data for several standards) are published in Newfoundland and Labrador Department of Natural Resources Open File 013O/0139.
