Survey Description


In 2017, a till survey was conducted in the eastern part of the McDougall Lake map sheet in southwestern New Brunswick as a follow-up to a reconnaissance survey carried out in 2000-2001.   A total of 274 samples were collected to increase the sample density in order to better define the anomalous areas identified in 2000-2001 and to increase the possibility of delineating previously unknown areas of prospective mineralization.

The data are published in New Brunswick Department of Energy and Resource Development Open File OF 2018-5.

  • Covers part of NTS 21G/07 (McDougall Lake), part of the western edge of 21G/08 (Saint John; 8 samples) and a very small part of 21G/02 (St. George; 1 sample) in southwestern New Brunswick.  South Oromocto, West Long and McDougall lakes are found within the study area.  The study area is bounded to the south by 45.25°N latitude and is located approximately 3 km east of River Road (Highway 770).

  • Covers a small part of NTS 21G/07 (McDougall Lake) in southwestern New Brunswick.  It includes McDougall Lake but no samples were collected in this area as it defines a hole in the till sampling coverage.
