The Jennings River (NTS 104O) reconnaissance-scale stream sediment and water survey was completed in 1978 and the resulting field and analytical data were released in 1979. A total of 946 sediment and 944 water samples were collected from 892 sample sites. The survey also included the collection of lake sediment and water samples from 75 sites.
As part of the RGS Archive Program, 893 archived sediment pulps were re-analyzed by epi-thermal INAA and this new data along with original survey results were re-published in 2000. |
