Survey Description


During the summer of 1993, helicopter-supported sample collection was carried out at 205 sites in southeastern Yukon.  Lake sediment and water samples were collected at an average density of one sample per 27.25 km2 throughout the 5 587 square kilometres covered by the survey.  Duplicate samples were collected once in every block of twenty samples.  The data are published in GSC Open File 2860.

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