Survey Description


In 1976, stream sediments and waters were collected in southern British Columbia.  The data are published in GSC Open File 409.  The samples were reanalysed by INAA and republished in 1991 with the original data as Open File 2354/BC RGS 29.

This survey was carried out using National Geochemical Reconnaissance (NGR) protocols.
