Contents
_________________________

This report contains geochemical data for till samples collected by the Geological Survey of Canada around the komatiite-associated Ni-Cu deposits in the northern Thompson Nickel Belt, northern Manitoba, to document the indicator mineral signatures of the Ni-Cu deposits. Data include archived till heavy mineral concentrates from 1996, till and bedrock samples collected in 2005 and 2006, along with data for till samples collected in 2007.
