The Dispersal of Gold and Related Elements in Tills and Soils at the Forest Hill Gold District, Guysborough County, Nova Scotia
註釋This integrated survey emphasizes the till stratigraphy andcorrelates bedrock, till and soil geochemistry. The purpose ofthis study is to develop and refine geochemical explorationtechniques for locating new gold deposits and re-evaluatingformer gold producing areas in rocks of the Meguma Group. Anextensive trenching program at the Forest Hill gold districtexposed approximately 3.5 km of drift cut to bedrock, withexposure along nine trenches oriented perpendicular to the strikeof both the veins and host strata of the deposit. This affordedthe authors an opportunity to study the till stratigraphy and thethree-dimensional dispersal of gold and related elements from aknown bedrock source by glacial and postglacial processes.
