Geochemical Data from a National Geochemical Reconnaissance Stream Sediment and Water Survey in the Area of the Coal River, Southeast Yukon Territory (Part of NTS 95E)

Geochemical Data from a National Geochemical Reconnaissance Stream Sediment and Water Survey in the Area of the Coal River, Southeast Yukon Territory (Part of NTS 95E) A stream sediment and water survey was carried out in the Coal River area of southeast Yukon during the summer of 2005. This survey was carried out under a Joint Research Agreement between the Yukon Government (Oil & Gas and Mineral Resources Division of the Department of Energy, Mines and Resources) and the Federal Government, acting through the Earth Science Sector's Metals in the Environment Program. Analytical data accompany this document for 50 elements in stream sediments and 60 variables in waters from a total of 174 sites sampled in 2005. National Geochemical Reconnaissance protocol was used for the collection, preparation and analysis of waters and silts. Samples were collected in the Yukon Territory portion of NTS map sheet 95E, west of the height of land that marks the boundary between Yukon and Northwest Territories and separates the Coal River and Flat River drainage basins. 2024-07-30 Government of Yukon geology@gov.yk.ca Science and TechnologyYukon Geological SurveyYukon Data Report and dataHTML https://data.geology.gov.yk.ca/reference/42976 Original metadata (https://open.yukon.ca)HTML https://open.yukon.ca/data/datasets/geochemical-data-national-geochemical-reconnaissance-stream-sediment-and-water-survey
