Survey Description
In the summer of 1967, a heavy mineral sampling survey was conducted in the Basse-Péribonka region, Quebec. The area covers 3000 km2. A total of 1400 samples were collected at an average density of 1 sample per 2.1 km2. These samples were prepared and analysed as follows: quartering up to about 100 g or less, addition of bromoform, recovery of the heavy fraction (2.89), hand magnet (magnetite), Frantz magnetic separator (ilmenite), binocular microscope examination.
The data are published in Open File DP-132, Department of Natural Resources, 1972.
