Survey Description


The survey spanned two field seasons, 2001 and 2002.  Approximately 430 till samples were collected in 2001 in the Rollingdam and McDougall Lake map areas, southwestern New Brunswick.  The samples were collected at a density of 1 sample per 4 km 2.

The data are published in New Brunswick Department of Natural Resources and Energy Open File 2002-4.  Till geochemistry for the McDougall Lake map area has also been published in NB DNR Map Plates 2007-35 to 2007-45.

In 2002, follow-up work was done in the Rollingdam area and all the data (2001 and 2002) were published in New Brunswick Department of Natural Resources and Energy Open File 2003-2.

Data Description:

Paper report; diskette (ASCII, MS-Excel and MS-Access). Plates 2002-36A and 2002-36b showing Au, Sb, As, and Cu values in till are available separately (OF 2002-4).  Paper report or disc (OF 2003-2).

Quantities Analysed:

<0.063 mm fraction by INAA for 24 elements and by ICP-AES after HCl-HNO 3 digestion for 35 elements (OF 2002-4).  <0.063 mm fraction by ICP-MS after HCl-HNO 3 digestion for 28 elements; by INAA for 24 elements (OF 2003-2).

Geochem Maps Available:

Plots of Au, Sb, As, and Cu values in till (OF 2002-4).  Contoured maps show dispersal of selected elements, clasts, and textural components (OF 2003-2).

Other Analyses:

Grain size (<2 mm); pebble lithologies (OF 2003-2).
