Survey Description
Following the sampling survey conducted in Port-Daniel, a soil sampling survey was conducted in Cascapédia and Nouvelle areas, Quebec. During the summer of 1982, the Cascapédia sampling was done for 50 km along the Grand Pabos Fault. A total of 6656 samples from the horizon B, were collected at an average density of 1 sample per 0.02 km2.
During the summer of 1983, the Nouvelle sampling was done for 25 km along the Grand Pabos Fault. A total of 3830 samples from the horizon B, were collected at an average density of 1 sample per 0.02 km2.
Samples were analyzed for:
| Element | Dissolution | Technique |
| Ag, B, Ba, Ca, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Li, Mn, Mo, Ni, Pb, Sn, Th, Zn | inductively coupled plasma emission ICP-ES | |
| As | atomic absorption (AAS) |
The data are published in Open File MB 88-09, Department of Energy and Resources, 1988. Data from the Port-Daniel area are published in Open File DV-84-08.
A subset of 2500 samples from between 66° W and 66.25° W longitude were reanalysed around 1990 by neutron activation for Au, As, Br, Cs, Sb, Se, Tm, U, W. The data are published as a series of symbol maps in Ministère des ressources naturelles report MB 91-04.
