Abstract
A DETAILED study of lead isotopes has been undertaken in order to evaluate variations in the isotopic composition of lead with respect to the geological environment of the sample area. Support for the project is being provided by the New Mexico Bureau of Mines and Mineral Resources division of the New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology and by the Geophysics Laboratory of the University of Toronto.
