For example, prior till and lake sediment Mountain map area (NTS 93 M/1) by the British geochemistry surveys in the Nechako River map ania Columbia Geological Survey as part of a comprehensive (NTS 93F) to the south were successful in delineating survey of the entire Babine copper porphyry belt. The several areas of known mineralization (Cook et al., 1995; results of complimentary lake sediment geochemistry ad Levson and Giles, 1997) and in revealing locations of new bedrock geology mapping progms are presented by Cook mineralized zones. For this reason, till geochemical et al. (1997%b) and MacIntyre et al. (1997%b in pocket), studies in the Babine porphyry belt have been conducted in respectively.

  • Holocene Tephras in Lake Cores from Northern British Columbia, Canada
    935 Holocene tephras in lake cores from northern British Columbia, Canada Thomas R. Lakeman, John J. Clague, Brian Menounos, Gerald D. Osborn, Britta J.L. Jensen, and Duane G. Froese Abstract: Sediment cores recovered from alpine and subalpine lakes up to 250 km apart in northern British Columbia con- tain five previously unrecognized tephras. Two black phonolitic tephras, each 5–10 mm thick, occur within 2–4 cm of each other in basal sediments from seven lakes in the Finlay River – Dease Lake area. The upper and lower Finlay tephras are slightly older than 10 220 – 10 560 cal year B.P. and likely originate from two closely spaced eruptions of one or two large volcanoes in the northern Cordilleran volcanic province. The Finlay tephras occur at the transition between deglacial sediments and organic-rich postglacial mud in the lake cores and, therefore, closely delimit the termination of the Fraser Glaciation in northern British Columbia. Sediments in Bob Quinn Lake, which lies on the east edge of the northern Coast Mountains, contain two black tephras that differ in age and composition from the Finlay tephras. The lower Bob Quinn tephra is 3–4 mm thick, basaltic in composition, and is derived from an eruption in the Iskut River volcanic field about 9400 cal years ago. The upper Bob Quinn tephra is 12 mm thick, trachytic in composition, and probably 7000–8000 cal years old. A fifth tephra occurs as a cryptotephra near the top of two cores from the Finlay River area and is correlated to the east lobe of the White River tephra (ca.

Declining metal prices resulted in the closure of the last producing mine in 1957, but in recent years extensive geophysical and geochemical surveys have been made by several major exploration com­ panies and new prospects have been discovered.

  • British Columbia Coastal Range and the Chilkotins
    BRITISH COLUMBIA COASTAL RANGE AND THE CHILKOTINS The Coast Mountains of British Columbia are remote with limited accessibility by float plane, helicopter or boating up its deep inlets along the coast and hiking in. The mountains along British Columbia and SE Alaska intermix with the sea in a complex maze of fjords, with thousands of islands. It is a true wilderness where not exploited by logging and salmon farming pens. But there are some areas accessible from roads that can be explored, including west of Lillooet, the Chilcotins, and the Garibaldi Range. The Coast Mountains extend approximately 1,600 kilometres (1,000 mi) long from the southeastern boundaries are surrounded by the Fraser River and the Interior Plateau while its far northwestern edge is delimited by the Kelsall and Tatshenshini Rivers at the north end of the Alaska Panhandle, beyond which are the Saint Elias Mountains. The western mountain slopes are covered by dense temperate rainforest with heavily glaciated peaks and icefields that include Mt Waddington and Mt Silverthrone. Mount Waddington is the highest mountain of the Coast Mountains and the highest that lies entirely within British Columbia, located northeast of the head of Knight Inlet with an elevation of 4,019 metres (13,186 ft). The range along its eastern flanks tapers to the dry Interior Plateau and the boreal forests of the southern Chilkotins north to the Spatsizi Plateau Wilderness Provincial Park. The mountain range's name derives from its proximity to the sea coast, and it is often referred to as the Coast Range. The range includes volcanic and non-volcanic mountains and the extensive ice fields of the Pacific and Boundary Ranges, and the northern end of the volcanic system known as the Cascade Volcanoes.
