Bedrock geology of NTS 95C/5 (Pool Creek) and NTS 95D/8 map sheets, southeast Yukon

Bedrock geology of NTS 95C/5 (Pool Creek) and NTS 95D/8 map sheets, southeast Yukon Map sheets 95C/5 and 95D/8 in southeast Yukon contain eight successions of sedimentary rocks ranging from Proterozoic to Paleocene in age. Early to middle Paleozoic starta are best preserved. Proterozoic strata have been tentativel correlated with Pinguicula Group, Mackenzie Mountains Supergroup and Windermere Supergroup. Newly defined Cambrian-Ordovician Crow Formation documents shallow water to suaerial siliciclastic sedimentary rocks related to a paleogeographic high. 2024-07-30 Government of Yukon geology@gov.yk.ca Science and TechnologyYukon Geological SurveyYukon Data MapHTML https://data.geology.gov.yk.ca/reference/43079 MapHTML https://data.geology.gov.yk.ca/reference/43079 ReportPDF https://ygsftp.gov.yk.ca/publications/bulletin/bulletin16/bulletin16.pdf Original metadata (https://open.yukon.ca)HTML https://open.yukon.ca/data/datasets/bedrock-geology-nts-95c5-pool-creek-and-nts-95d8-map-sheets-southeast-yukon
