Lithogeochemical facies of Athabasca Basin clastics, Saskatchewan - the use of PCA as a reconnaissance and mapping tool / P. Ramaekers, S.A. Bosman and C.D. Card.M183-2/7790E-PDF

"This study illustrates how Principal Component Analysis (PCA) of lithogeochemical data may be used to identify and map lithogeochemical facies using a regional-scale database of ca. 40,000 samples. This database also includes ca. 11,000 samples with enough stratigraphic data to permit this to be done in three dimensions to a rudimentary degree. The facies distribution by stratigraphy and depo systems furthers the understanding of depositional, alteration history, and ore processes of the Athabasca Basin and its high-grade unconformity-related U deposits"--Abstract, page 1.
