Surficial Geology and Hazards
| Surficial geology is concerned with the description of the types and
distributions of unconsolidated sediments across the landscape. This information is
collected and maintained primarily in maps and databases. It is useful to mineral
explorationists, sand and gravel production, hazard assessment, and landuse planning.
For questions or more information on geology and minerals in
British Columbia please contact GSB Mailbox
or use the toll free number (B.C. residents
only).
