Stratigraphy and Geologic Settings of Gold Placers in the Cariboo Mining District

This report provides details on field activities in placer geology conducted by the Surficial Geology Unit of the British Columbia Geological Survey Branch. In 1989. studies of gold-hearing placer deposits at active mines were undertaken with the objective of identifying geological criteria useful for recognizing placer potential. This research was continued in I990 and a total of over 60 diffe...

Cariboo Region Part of a Series on the Resource Regions of British Columbia

British Columbia’s climate exhibits large variations over short distances, due to complex topography. Long-term historical trends show warming, more rapid for night-time low temperatures than daytime highs and more rapid in winter than summer. Precipitation trends are less certain due to data limitations and also exhibit increases, except in the winter season when large variability results in t...
