Book excerpt: This report analyzes airborne gamma spectrometric data acquired over the Endako porphyry district in British Columbia in 1995, along with surface & lithogeochemical data, to assess their utility as an aid to geological mapping and mineral exploration. It begins with background on the geological setting, including surficial & bedrock geology. Results of analyses are then presented with regard to correlations between airborne & surficial mapping measurements, and the effects of various surficial features on measured airborne radioelement concentrations.
