“…This technique has its roots in mineral prospecting where geochemistry is used to establish the provenance and dispersal pattern of valuable mineral deposits that have underwent transport by ice during glaciation (e.g. Aario & Peuraniemi, 1992;Kauranne, 1958;Klassen, 2001;Klassen & Thompson, 1993;McClenaghan, Thorleifson, & DiLabio, 2000;Parent, Paradis, & Doiron, 1996;Peuraniemi, Aario, & Pulkkinen, 1997;Sarala, Rossi, Peuraniemi, & Ojala, 2007;Veillette, 2004). The geochemical signature of the till is inherited from the bedrock parent material which allows till provenance to be established (Boston, Evans, & Ó 'Cofaigh, 2010).…”
