Survey Description 873 samples were collected in 1985 from 704 sites in the southern Miramichi Zone and vicinity, New Brunswick. The data are published in GSC Open File 2238. A final report on the Miramichi Zone, including stratigraphy and till geochemistry was published in GSC Bulletin 433. Data Description: Paper report; data files on diskette. Quantities Analysed: <0.002 mm fraction analyzed by different laboratories different years: (1) by AAS after HCl:HNO3 (1:3) for 10 elements; by colorimetric method for As; by specific ion electrode for F; by colorimetric methods for As and W; by fluorometric method for U; and by XRF for Sn. and (2) ICP-AFS after HCl:HNO3 (1:3) for 11 elements; by specific ion electrode for F; by flameless-AAS for Hg; by fluorometric method for U; by colorimetric method for W. <0.063 mm fraction by INAA for 11 elements; by CV-AAS for Hg; by AAS for As and Sb; and by fire assay-INAA for Au. Geochem Plots Available: Proportional symbol maps showing dispersal of Cu, Pb, Zn, Sn, W, As, U, Hg in the <0.002 mm fraction and As, Sb, and Au in the <0.063 mm fraction. |
