Survey Description
In June 1993, biogeochemical and surficial geochemical studies were conducted in 3 areas in Manitoba: the Bird River sill (PGEs), the Bernic Lake area (rare earth pegmatite) and the “Donner Option” (PGEs) east of English Lake. Samples were collected of several species and tissue types including balsam fir twigs; black spruce twigs and bark; jack pine twigs, bark and trunk wood; alder twigs, as well as samples of humus, B-horizon soil and till. A summary of the work can be found in Manitoba Energy and Mines Report of Activities 1993.
