Survey Description Approximately 244 till samples were collected in 1984 and 1985 on northern mainland Nova Scotia and Pictou Island. The data are published in Nova Scotia Department of Mines and Energy Open File Maps 88-031 (Map 12-1988) and 88-032 (Map 12-1988). Data Description: Paper map; map margin has data tables keyed to samples located on the map. Quantities Analysed: <0.002 mm fraction by AAS for 12 elements; by colourimetry for As; and by fluorometry for U (OF Map 88-031). Heavy mineral concentrate (0.063-0.3 mm fraction) collected in 1984 were analysed by colourimetry for W; by iodide fusion for Sn; and by DCP for Ba. HMCs (0.063-0.3 mm fraction) collected in 1985 were analysed by ICP-ES for 12 elements (OF Map 88-032). Geochem Plots Available: Sample sites with anomalous element levels are indicated on map. Other Analyses: Heavy mineral concentrate (OF Map 88-032). |
