Survey Description


In 1978, a stream sediment sampling survey was conducted in the Villemontel township, Quebec.  The area covers 156 km2.  A total of 103 samples were collected at an average density of 1 sample per 1.5 km2.  These samples were analysed for Cu, Pb, Zn, Ni, Co, Mn, Mo, Ag, Sn (atomic absorption), U by paper chromatography and loss on ignition.

The data are published in Open File DP-615, Department of Natural Resources, 1978.  In 1979, the geochemistry section published geochemical data in Open File DP-672.

This survey is part of a compilation of geochemical surveys published in DV 87-22.
