Geology of Southwestern Yukon

This interim report has reviewed stratigraphic characteristics of the lowermost succession of Proterozoic rocks exposed in the northern Wernecke Mountains. This sequence of rocks, which is in excess of 13 km thick, is named the Wernecke Supergroup. The Wernecke Supergroup is composed of three...

Interpretive geology of the Jakes Corner geophysical survey, southern Yukon, (NTS 105 C/5 and 105 D/8,9) including one 1:50 000-scale map and an interpretive report. The accompanying geological map is designed to be overlain upon the 1:50 000 geophysical maps of Open File 1994-10 (G). It...

The Dempster Highway, Canada?s most northern highway, is an all-weather gravel road through a landscape that remains mostly wilderness. From its southern starting point (Km 0) east of Dawson City, Yukon, the highway crosses the Arctic Circle (latitude 66?33? North) at Km 405. It passes from the...

Geology of Joe Mountain map area (105D/15), southern Yukon (1:50 000 scale)

Preliminary geological map of Wolverine Lake area, Pelly Mountains, southeastern Yukon (north half of NTS 105 G/8) including a geological cross-section and mineral occurrences.

A map of the residual total magnetic field derived from data acquired by Goldak Airborne Surveys during the period of November 19, 2008 to February 19, 2009. Data were recorded using a split-beam cesium vapour magnetometer mounted in the tail boom of a Piper Navajo aircraft.

Surficial geological map (1:50 000 scale) of Seattle Creek area, central Yukon (NTS 115 P/16) including marginal notes on physiography, glacial history, placer gold potential and terrain hazards as well as stream sediment sample locations. Also included are 6 generalized stratigraphic sections.

Geological map (1:50 000 scale) of Tiny Island Lake map area, central Yukon (NTS 105 M/16) including mineral occurrences, geological cross-sections, structural relations, mesoscopic fabric data and descriptive notes on stratigraphy, intrusive rocks, structure, metamorphism and guide to mineral...

Yukon Geoscience Needs:Results of the Fourth Yukon Geoscience Planning Workshop

This volume of Yukon Geology is the first of a series that will report on geology of the Yukon, especially those studies with an economic aspect. It is an outgrowth of the Yukon Exploration and Geology series, containing the material that made up the first half of the book. That material forming...

Bedrock geology along the Duke River fault near Klutlan Glacier, Yukon (part of NTS 115F/07)

Geological map (1:25 000 scale) of Blind Creek area, central Yukon (NTS 105 K/7 SE) including a geological cross-section, mineral occurrences, isotopic age dates, fossil samples and geochemical samples.

Geological map of Swim Lakes (NTS 105K/2 NE), Yukon (1:25 000 scale)

Yukon Exploration and Geology 1993 consists of three parts: Part A is a comprehensive overview of mining and exploration activity in the Yukon; Part B summarizes the activities of Government agencies which provide technical and financial assistance to the Yukon mining and exploration industries;...

Surficial Geology of the Howard?s Pass Area (NTS 105I/11 and parts of 105I/10, 6 and 7), Yukon and Northwest Territories

Geological map of Faro (NTS 105K/3 NW) and Mount Mye (NTS 105K/6 SW), central Yukon (1:25 000 scale)

Geological map (1:50 000 scale) of Pool Creek (NTS 95 C/5), southeastern Yukon, including geological cross-sections, possible stratigraphic correlations, fossil occurrences and mineral occurrences.

The placer potential mapping process consisted of applying a classification rating of 1 to 5 (lowest to highest) for all streams within the planning area. Factors affecting a stream's potential included development history and hard rock mining potential (gold deposit potential). Terrain...

Geological map (1:25 000 scale) of Mount Mye area, central Yukon (NTS 105 K/6 E) including geological cross-sections, mineral occurrences, isotopic age dates, fossil samples and geochemical samples.
