| Summary | (Plain Language Summary, not published)
This is a summary of the clast lithology counts made from the coarse fractions of the heavy mineral bulk till samples. This data can be used to document
glacial dispersal patterns which can be applied to future mineral exploration or ice- sheet configurations and flow history. |
