Project M142 of 2006 The area was mapped by K. MacLachlan, in the summer of 2006, with the assistance of C. Johnson and R. Leray This map was printed from the geologist’s digital file. Geological data were processed using Pendragon Forms, Microsoft Access, and ArcView 9.1 software. Base maps were digitzed from orthorectified 2005 digital aerial photographs. Grid coordinates are NAD 83 UTM zone 14. The map was processed overall using ArcView 9.1 software. The map is issued in a package with the Summary of Investigations 2006 Volume 2, Saskatchewan Geological Survey, and is available separately. This map accompanies the following publication: MacLachlan, K. (2006): Stratigraphy, Structure and Silicification: New Results From Mapping in the Flin Flon Mining Camp, Creighton, Saskatchewan; in Summary of Investigations Volume 2, 2006, Saskatchewan Geological Survey, Sask.
