Abstract
During the 2000 field season, both regional and detailed till sampling surveys were conducted in the Cariboo region of central British Columbia. These surveys complement the longer term objectives of the NATMAPAncient Pacific Margin (APM) project and provide continuity to the surficial till geochemistry work initiated by Dixon-Warren and Hickin (2000) in 1999 as part of the APM project team. During the 2000 field season, two drift prospecting projects were successfully completed in the Cariboo Mining Division. The first was a regional study that focused on collecting bulk till samples for geochemical analysis over the Barkerville and Slide Mountain terranes in the vicinity of Wells. This project covered half of two 1:50,000 NTS map sheets with a total of 326 sampling sites. The second project was a detailed orientation program, conducted within an area of known mineral potential near Likely. As part of this latter project, 180 samples were collected from 70 sampling sites. All samples are currently in the process of being analyzed and their results will be published separately at a later date.
