Survey Description
In 1993, 229 till samples were collected at 171 sites in the Fawnie Creek area of central British Columbia. The samples were collected at approximately 1 sample per 4 km2. Higher density sampling was conducted in areas of perceived higher mineralization and around known mineral prospects. The data are published in British Columbia Geological Survey Open File 1994-18.
Data Description:
Paper report with partial data lists.
Quantities Analysed:
<0.063 mm fraction by INAA for 35 elements; by ICP-ES after aqua regia for 30 elements; by ICP-ES for whole rock analysis.
Geochem Maps Available:
Proportional symbol maps show the dispersal of each element.
