Abstract

This GIS dataset is part of a digital compilation of the Precambrian geology of the Alberta portion of the Canadian Shield and Athabasca Basin. It is one of the datasets used to produce Alberta Geological Survey Map 537.

The dataset displays Alberta shield locations where we took rock samples for uranium-lead dating. Alberta Geological Survey compiled the data from published literature. Attributes include crystallization and/or cooling age, mineral analyzed, sample identifier and rock type, literature reference, and analytical method. This is a digital version of the data given in Table 1 of Map 537.
