Survey Description


Till samples were collected at 81 sites in the Waterford (21H/11) and Salmon River (21H/6) areas of southeastern New Brunswick in 1989.  Some of the data (76 samples) were reanalyzed and are published in New Brunswick Department of Resources and Energy Open File Report 95-4.

Data Description:

Paper report (summary of activities); 76 samples were released as part of a later project and have digital data with a paper report.

Quantities Analysed:

76 of the samples collected during this survey were analysed by the following methods and released as part of NBDNRE OF 95-4: <0.063 mm by INAA for 30 elements and by ICP-AES after digestion for 7 elements.

Geochem Maps Available:

76 of the samples collected during this survey were included in contour element dispersal maps with samples collected at a later date and released in NBDNRE OF 95-4).
