Abstract
Semiquantitative spectrographic analyses for 31 elements on 53 stream-sediment, 13 panned-concentrate, 116 soil, and 113 rock samples from Snowbird Roadless Area and vicinity, Nantahala National Forest, Graham County, N. C., are reported here in detail. Atomic-absorption analyses for gold and zinc in all samples and fluorometric analyses for uranium in rock samples are al, so reported. Localities for all samples are given in Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) coordinates. Brief descriptions of rock samples are also included. Rocks analyzed include metasandstone, graphitic slate, metagraywacke, mica-garnet schist, pseudodlorite, and vein quartz.
