Survey Description
During the summers of 1971, 1972 and 1973, a stream sediment sampling survey was conducted in the Boisbuisson area, Quebec. The area covers 200 km2. A total of 793 samples were collected along streams (1 sample/460 m) at an average density of 1 sample per 0.2 km2. The samples were analysed for:
| Element | Dissolution | Technique |
| Cu, Zn, Pb, Ni, Co, Mn, Ag, Sb |
HNO3 |
atomic absorption (AAS) |
| U |
HNO3 |
paper chromatography |
The data are published in Open File RG-187, Department of Natural Resources, Quebec, 1977. Two preliminary reports on two adjacent territories are combined in this publication (DP-117 and DP-188).
