Baseline study of the watersheds near the TOM property, MacMillan Pass, Yukon Territory / by I.K. Soroka and M.E. Jack. : En40-240/83-14E-PDF

"A predevelopment study was undertaken by the Environmental Protection Service in the watersheds near the TOM Property in MacMillan Pass, Yukon in July, 1981. The presence of ore minerals in the study area was reflected by their presence in water and sediment. All streams have soft water with low buffering capacity. With the exception of the South MacMillan River all sampling streams show very low natural pH levels and elevated metal concentrations that make them unsuitable for drinking water and aquatic life. This is probably why the numbers of bottom fauna collected were low. The metals of concern when a mine and mill become active will be arsenic, cadmium, copper, manganese, nickel, silver, lead and zinc"--Abstract, page i.
