In 2004, Fugro Airborne Surveys completed a multi-sensor airborne geophysical survey of the Peter Lake and Wollaston Lake areas, Saskatchewan, for the Geological Survey of Canada and Saskatchewan Industry and Resources. The purpose of the survey was to obtain quantitative gamma-ray spectrometric and aeromagnetic data. The survey was flown over two seasons, from August 31 to September 29, 2003 and July 15 to September 30, 2004 using Cessna Grand Caravan 208-B aircraft C-GNCA.

The survey, consisting of 47 986 line-kilometres of traverse and control lines, was monitored by the GSC and carried out by Fugro Airborne Surveys of Montréal, Quebec. Normal line spacing was 400 m for the traverses and 4000 m for the control lines, all flown according to a draped surface at a nominal ground clearance of 125 m.

This survey and the production of these maps were funded by Saskatchewan Industry and Resources and Natural Resources Canada's Geological Survey of Canada. They were produced as part of the Trans-Hudson / Superior Margin Metallotect project as a contribution to the Northern Resources Development program of the Earth Sciences Sector, Natural Resources Canada.
