Seasonal Variation of Gold Content of Stream Sediments, Harris Creek, near Vernon:
نویسنده
چکیده
Results of a preliminary study of seasonal variations of gold content in Harris Creek were given by Day and Fletcher (1987a). Suhsequently,DayandFletcher(1987h)presenteda model for transport of gold in Harris Creek and suggested that heavy-mineral concentrates collected from bar-head gravels could provide a good exploration medium. To study seasonal variations at such sites, bar-head gravels at a single site have been sampled five times between July 1986 and July 1987. Results for these samples are presented and discussed in relation to the transport model developed bv Dav and Fletcher (1987h).
