Sediment samples were collected from the sea floor off the delta front, from the lower reaches of the Skeena River channels, and from small beaches and basins in the vicinity of Ridley Island. This paper describes the results of the grain analysis and remarks about the estuarine-marine geological environment of the Prince Rupert-Skeena River area.
