Survey Description Till samples from 974 sites were collected over the northern Miramichi Zone in New Brunswick in 1985. The data are published in GSC Open File 2236. A final report on the Miramichi Zone, including stratigraphy and till geochemistry was published in GSC Bulletin 433. Some samples from 21O/15,16 were re-analysed and published in New Brunswick Department of Natural Resources and Energy Open File 2002-9. Data Description: Paper report; digital data. Quantities Analysed: <0.002 mm fraction analyzed by AAS after HCl:HNO3 (1:3) digestion for 10 elements; by colorimetric methods for As and W; by specific ion electrode for F; by CV-AAS and flameless-AAS for Hg; by XRF for Sn; by fluorometric method after HNO3 for U. <0.063 mm fraction by INAA for 11 elements; by CV-AAS for Hg; and by AAS after HCl:HNO3 (1:3) for As; by AAS after HCl-KClO3 for Sb; by fire assay-INAA for Au. Geochem Plots Available: Proportional symbol maps showing regional distribution of elements. |
