Surficial geological map (1:50 000 scale) of Garner Creek map area, west-central Yukon (NTS 115 O/13) including marginal notes on surficial geology and geomorphology.

Stream sediment and water surveys were conducted in the Old Crow area of northwest Yukon during the summers of 2004 and 2005. These surveys were carried out under a Joint Research Agreement between the Yukon Government (Oil & Gas and Mineral Resources Division of the Department of Energy,...

Preliminary geological map (1:50 000 scale) of Grass Lakes area, Pelly Mountains, southeastern Yukon Territory (NTS 105 G/7) including geological cross-sections and mineral occurrences.

Bedrock geology along the Duke River fault near Bullion Creek, Yukon (part of NTS 115G/02)

Geological Map of Sprague Creek Map Area, Western Selwyn Basin, Yukon, NTS 115P/15

Magnetic First Vertical Derivative, 106E/SE-SW, Yukon Territory

Geological map including geological cross sections and mineral occurrences.

This five-day geological excursion across the northern Canadian Cordillera of southern Yukon and northern B.C. will lead the participants from the parautochtonous edge of ancestral North America (Laurentia), near Cassiar, BC, through the Intermontane (peri-Laurentian) terranes and the oceanic...

The project area, covering 2,142 square kilometres, includes the following three map areas: Colorado Creek (115 J/10), Selwyn River (115 J/9), and Prospector Mountain (115 I/5). Most of the area is in the Dawson Range subdivision of the Yukon Plateau in west-central Yukon Territory. In this...

Surficial geological map (1:25 000 scale) and till geochemistry (copper, lead and zinc) of Swim Lakes area, central Yukon (NTS 105 K/2 northeast).

This map of the first vertical derivative of the magnetic field was derived from data acquired during an aeromagnetic survey carried out by Fugro Airborne Surveys during the period April 17, 2006 to August 26, 2007. The data were recorded using a split-beam cesium vapour magnetometer (sensitivity...

Since the publication of the last industry report, Yukon has undergone significant change: mineral prices have increased dramatically, with a corresponding boom in economic activity, mineral exploration, mine development, housing prices and employment. In contrast with the hard-rock sector,...

This map was produced as part of a biophysical mapping pilot study carried out in the Watson Lake (NTS 105A/2) area in 2004. Biophysical mapping (also known as ecological land classification) is an integral system of mapping describing terrain conditions (surficial geology, slope, landscape...

Fieldwork was completed in July/August, 2001 in northern Yukon. Fieldwork included investigating results from the stream sediment geochemical survey commissioned to the GSC in the summer of 2000. This survey had been designed to complete the geochemical coverage over the Eagle Plains ecoregion,...

Geological map (1:50 000 scale) of the Aishihik Lake area, southwest Yukon (NTS 115 H/6) including geological cross-sections, mineral occurrences and isotopic age determinations.

The Onion Creek map area straddles the north slope of the Nisling Range to the south and the south slope of the Dawson Range to the north. Nisling River separates the two ranges and crosses the map area from east to west. Onion Creek is a major tributary to the Nisling River on the west side of...

This map is based on 1991 mapping and compilation of previous Geological Survey of Canada mapping, namely McTaggart (1960), Kindle (1962), and Boyle (1965). The geology of the Keno Hill district is discussed more fully in Roots and Murphy (1992). Keno Hill map area is underlain primarily by...

Preliminary geological map of the Hutshi Lakes and Cracker Creek map areas, parts of NTS 115A/15 and 115H/2

Geological map (1:25 000 scale) of Faro (NTS 105 K/3 NE) and Mount Mye (NTS 105 K/6 SE) areas, central Yukon including geological cross-sections, mineral occurrences, isotopic age dates, fossil samples and geochemical samples.
