This report details the results of geochronological measurements made on 19 samples from locations in & directly adjacent to the eastern Bella Coola map area of British Columbia. The analytical data were extracted from a large, mostly unpublished data set that includes uranium/lead, potassium/argon, and argon/argon geochronometry for other parts of the Anahim Lake and Mount Waddington map areas. Analytical data, geological ages, and relevant observations for each dated sample are presented in chronological order. The age results provide broad constraints on pluton emplacement, volcanic eruption, and structural & metamorphic relationships in the study area, although these are discussed only in general terms.

The mission of the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Water Resources Discipline is to provide the information and understanding needed for wise management of the Nation's water resources. Inherent in this mission is the responsibility of collecting data that accurately describe the physical, chemical, and biological attributes of water systems. These data are used for environmental and resource assessments by the USGS, other government agencies and scientific organizations, and the general public. Reliable and quality-assured data are essential to the credibility and impartiality of the water-resources appraisals carried out by the USGS.
