New geochemical data from re-analysis of archived stream sediment samples have been assessed using weighted sums modeling and catchment basin analysis as described in the methodology report that accompanies this map (YGS Open File 2015-10). Both commodity and pathfinder element abundances are...

Electoral districts as defined by the /Electoral Districts Boundaries Act/ (SY 2008, c. 14) as amended. The linework was created by interpreting the /Electoral Districts Boundaries Act/ (SY 2008, c. 14) using thethe 1:50 000 scale national topographic database data (NTDB), National Road Network...

Fire districts are administrative areas where wildland fire resources are allocated and deployed. They fall within one of six larger fire regions. Distributed from GeoYukon by the Government of Yukon . Discover more digital map data and interactive maps from Yukon's digital map data collection....

This map of the residual total magnetic field was derived from data acquired during a helicopter-borne aeromagnetic survey carried out by Fugro Airborne Surveys during the period between February 4 to March 15, 2010. The data were recorded using split-beam cesium vapour magnetometers (sensitivity...

This data shows the spatial extent of surface disturbance mapping projects completed by GIS contractors on behalf of Environment Yukon. Within these polygons, features were digitized using high resolution satellite imagery and orthophotos; outside these polygons, disturbance mapping is either...

The Yukon Territory is underlain by a great variety of rock types ranging in age from Early Proterozoic to Recent and representing diverse environments including epicratonic basins, subsiding shelves, foreland basins, island arcs and deep ocean basins. Episodes of compressional and extensional...

Geological map of the Rackla belt, east-central Yukon (NTS 106C/1-4, 106D/1)

The dataset contains data for placer watersheds locations. The dataset covers 18 watersheds within the Yukon Territory. The following watersheds form the principle boundaries of the dataset: Big Creek, Big Salmon River, Forty Mile River Indian River, Klondike River, Mayo River McQuesten River,...

This high sensitivity aeromagnetic survey was carried out by Goldak Airborne Surveys (Goldak) on behalf of the Geological Survey of Canada (GSC) between January 25th and March 26th, 2011. Aircraft equipment operated included three cesium vapour magnetometers, a GPS real-time and post-corrected...

The Yukon Geological Survey (YGS) has compiled over 195 surficial geology maps into a standardized GIS format, providing approximately 80% coverage of the territory. The maps range in scales from 1:250,000 to 1:10,000 with spatial overlap between scales. The original maps were produced by various...
