Selected Data from Preliminary Report on the Timmins-Kirkland Lake Area Gold Deposits File

Data on gold deposits are extracted from an existing publication to enable analysis. The data comprise selected portions of a data set that are published by C.J. Hodgson in "Preliminary Report on the Timmins-Kirkland Lake Area Gold Deposits File," which is available online as a digital image of a report. As an image, the data set cannot be analyzed. Consequently, selected portions of the data set are re-published here in a text file. The datum for the latitude and longitude is not specified in the report and is assumed to be the North American Datum of 1927 (NAD27). The Ontario Geological Survey, Ministry of Northern Development and Mines, Ontario, Canada kindly granted permission to re-publish these data. Hodgson, C.J., 1983, Preliminary Report on the Timmins-Kirkland Lake Area Gold Deposits File, Ontario Geological Survey, Open File Report 5467, 434 p., 17 tables, 40 figures, 9 appendices, and 11 maps, available online at http://www.geologyontario.mndmf.gov.on.ca/mndmfiles/pub/data/imaging/OFR5467/OFR5467.pdf
