The data are published in Newfoundland Department of Mines and Energy Open File NFLD 2824. Data Description: Paper and digital report and data files (available on-line). Quantities Analysed: <0.063 mm fraction by AAS after nitric acid digestion for Ag and Rb, by ICP-ES after HF-HCl-HClO4 digestion for 29 elements, by INAA for 36 elements. Geochem Plots Available: Proportional symbol plots show the distribution of 12 elements and % LOI. Other Analyses: LOI. |
