Summary
This compilation provides a set of reference, complete, complimentary geophysical data sets over the Quesnel Terrane of British Columbia, Canada. The Quesnel Terrane is centered on Quesnellia in the Intermontane belt of BC.
These data are a geophysical subset of the full set of data provided as part of the Geoscience BC QUEST: QUESNELLIA EXPLORATION STRATEGY together with surveys commissioned by Natural Resources Canada. This subset has been reviewed for completeness of all metadata, measurement units, consistency of coordinate systems, and provided in industry-standard formats. This data is considered suitable for use as a reference data set in further scientific study.
