Environment Canada 1988 Samatosum Project : baseline study / by G. Derksen.: En40-240-1/90-02E-PDF

"A monitoring program was conducted in May 1988 to establish the baseline conditions of sediment quality in Johnson Creek which is adjacent to a proposed lead/zinc/silver mine. Sediments in Homestake Creek, an adjacent drainage, were found to be high in metal content. The high metal levels are likely a result of previous mine activity in the drainage. The sediment results are discussed in the context of trend monitoring considerations"--Abstract, page i.
