Current activities of the joint Geological Survey of Canada-Sts'ailes Harrison Lake Project (British Columbia), a flagship project of the GSC's Indigenous Relations Network / J.W. Haggart, M. Golding,...: M44-2025/1E-PDF

"Sts'ailes have expressed a strong interest in how local geology influences the distribution of stone tools recovered from archeological sites within and beyond their territorial lands in the watershed of Harrison Lake and the lower Lillooet River in southern British Columbia. In particular, the First Nation community of Sts'ailes has sought to learn more about the formation and geographic distribution of volcanogenic strata which were the likely sources of toolstone used to produce these artifacts. The Geological Survey of Canada is also interested in studying the volcanic and sedimentary succession preserved at Harrison Lake, as well as its deformation history, as it is a key to understanding the Mesozoic geological history of the southern Cordillera. Sts'ailes and the Geological Survey of Canada thus initiated a joint research project to address these lines of inquiry"--Abstract, page 1.
