The work was funded by the UK Overseas Development Administration (ODA &#8211; now the Department for International Development, DFID) in collaboration with the Servicio de Geologia y Mineria (SGM), Lima, Peru (now INGEMMET). The geochemical exploration project was managed by a BGS geologist\/ geochemist and supported by counterpart staff from the SGM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Locational and analytical data, maps and interpretative unpublished reports were deposited at the SGM in Lima in 1971. The geochemical data are a long-term asset and continued interest in the results, particularly in recent years, has required that the data be made more readily available in a digital format.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The 1967\u201371 GENP project essentially pre-dated the era of data processing by computer. Locational and analytical data have now been digitised and stored as a CD-ROM database.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The unpublished report (Baldock, 1971) on the 3.5-year project has also been digitised for release on the CD-ROM. This gives references to other reports, and tables and figures are included as files readable using Microsoft Office applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Publications relating to GENP 1967\u201371 are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Baldock, J W. 1977.

The sample site map was a paper copy &#8211; so, although the UTM co-ordinates for locations are given to the nearest metre, the true location of the original sample sites may vary by as much as 500 m, or in some cases even more (see below for technical information and caveats). However, it should be noted that GENP 1967-71 was a low-density regional exploration survey based on the collection of some 1260 samples at key sites within the 25,000 km\u00b2 project area &#8211; a density of approximately 1 sample per 20 km\u00b2.<\/p>\n<p>Co-ordinates are from UTM zone 17 and the map datum used is the South American Provisional datum 1956.<\/p>\n<p>The UTM co-ordinates have been calculated by an affine transformation of digitiser co-ordinates, using the calculated UTM co-ordinates of half degree latitude\/longitude intersections as control points. Comparison of selected sample locations with visually identified sites on the drainage network, as shown on the 1:100 000 scale topographic maps, issued by the Institute Geogrifico Militar, suggests that most co-ordinates in this database are within 0.5 km of their likely position on the topographic map. In some cases the discrepancy could be up to 1.0 km but not more than 1.5 km. Some sites could have been plotted up-stream of their true position to preserve clarity on the sample site map, which is at 1:400 000 scale. In some cases, the plotting of sample sites on side streams some way above their confluence with the main stream is thought to be true, as the sample sites seem to be a short distance up-stream of tracks or mule-paths.<\/p>\n<p>In the light of the above information it is recommended that further investigations of anomalous sites should take the presence of an anomaly as being within a limited area rather than exactly at the location indicated by the sample site co-ordinates. No information is available on the correlation between the topographic maps and GPS determined co-ordinates, but some translational error is to be expected.<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div><div  class=\"accordions\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"acc-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<button class=\"acc-top secondary-background icon-arrow button no-btn\"><span class=\"button-content\" tabindex=\"-1\">Summary information<\/span><\/button>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"acc-body sea-background-e\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><strong>Regional dataset (GENP &#8211; 1967\u201371) (files located in DATA subdirectory)<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"col-12 responsive-table\"><table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Excel filename:<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>GENP.XLS<\/td>\n<td>&nbsp;<\/td>\n<td>&nbsp;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>CSV filename<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>GENP.CSV<\/td>\n<td>&nbsp;<\/td>\n<td>&nbsp;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>DBF filename:<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>GENP.DBF<\/td>\n<td>&nbsp;<\/td>\n<td>&nbsp;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>UTM Zone:<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>17<\/td>\n<td>&nbsp;<\/td>\n<td>&nbsp;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Minimum Easting:<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>612 997 m<\/td>\n<td>Maximum Easting:<\/td>\n<td>819 050 m<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Minimum Northing:<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>9208 449 m<\/td>\n<td>Maximum Northing:<\/td>\n<td>9500 742 m<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Number of sites:<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>1345<\/td>\n<td>&nbsp;<\/td>\n<td>&nbsp;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Average density<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>1 sample per 20 km\u00b2<\/td>\n<td>&nbsp;<\/td>\n<td>&nbsp;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Fraction used<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>-80 BS mesh (-177 \u03bcm)<\/td>\n<td>&nbsp;<\/td>\n<td>&nbsp;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Elements analysed by AAS<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Cu, Pb, Zn, (Co), Ag<\/td>\n<td>&nbsp;<\/td>\n<td>&nbsp;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Elements analysed by colorimetry<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Mo, (As), (V)<\/p>\n<p>Cold-extractable heavy metal (CxHM) by the Bloom test<\/td>\n<td>&nbsp;<\/td>\n<td>&nbsp;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table><\/div>\n<p><strong>Other datasets<\/strong> (files located in DATA subdirectory of CD-ROM)<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>GENP Orientation (around Michiquillay): <u>xls<\/u><\/li>\n<li>56 samples from Michiquillay and surrounding catchments (see Figure 4 (file report\/genpfg04.ppt ) in accompanying report).<\/li>\n<li>Sorochuco follow-up soil survey: <u>xls<\/u><\/li>\n<li>One hundred and one sample analyses from the Sorochuco prospect.<\/li>\n<li>Soil samples from Gran Bretaa mine regional in Central Peru: <u>xls<\/u><\/li>\n<li>Locations for samples from follow-up work in the Pomahuaca area: <u>xls<\/u><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Note: \u00a0Additional data, collected during follow-up work around specific anomalies and reliant on locally performed analyses, may still be available from INGEMMET in Lima.<\/p>\n<p>Some locational information concerning some of these samples has been included in report figures.<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div><div  class=\"accordions\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"acc-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<button class=\"acc-top secondary-background icon-arrow button no-btn\"><span class=\"button-content\" tabindex=\"-1\">References<\/span><\/button>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"acc-body sea-background-e\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The CD-ROM should be referenced as:<\/p>\n<p>BGS (2007).
