Survey Description
In 2007 and 2008, vegetation samples were collected in the Bonaparte Lake area, south central British Columbia during the course of a mapping project. Approximately 8 samples were collected in the vicinity of the Gibraltar Mine. In 2009, a brief follow-up survey was carried out near areas of known PGE enrichments in the Lake Dum area and southwest of Lac des Roches. The following sample types were collected:
| Year of Collection | Number of Samples | Sample Type |
| 2007 + 2008 | 198 | lodgepole pine bark |
| 180 | Engelmann spruce bark | |
| 35 | western redcedar twigs and foliage | |
| 2009 | 21 | lodgepole pine and Englelmann spruce bark; Douglas fir twigs and foliage |
The data are published in Geological Survey of Canada Open File 6726.

The geographic extent of the survey is defined by the following polygons:
-
Covers the southeast part of NTS 92P (Bonaparte Lake) in south central British Columbia. The study area is located approximately 65 km north of the city of Kamloops. Bonaparte Lake is located in the southern part of the study area and Green Lake is located approximately 10 km northwest. The towns of Barrière and Little Fort are located just outside the eastern limit of the study area.
-
Covers part of NTS 93B/09 (Alexandria) just northwest of the Gibraltar Mine, south central British Columbia. The study area is located between Valerie Lake to the south and Souran Lake to the north. The town of Marguerite is located approximately 7 km to the southwest.
