A CD-ROM archive containing digital data from airborne EM and MAG geophysical surveys of the Jakes Corner Project, southwest Yukon (NTS 105 D/8,9 and 105 C/5,12). CD-ROM files include GEOSOFT XYZ files (with documentation), GEOSOFT vectors, GEOSOFT grids and IPOWER grids.

Physiography: The Seagull Creek map area includes the upper two-thirds of the Seagull Creek drainage area. The creek rises at a high divide (1372 m) in the Pelly Mountains and flows southsoutheast for approximately 30 km in a broad, U-shaped valley before joining the McConnell River (1067 m). The...

Yukon Exploration and Geology 1994 consists of three parts: Part A is a comprehensive overview of mining and exploration activity in Yukon; Part B summarizes the activities of Government agencies which provide technical and financial assistance to the Yukon mining and exploration industries; and...

Between the Cretaceous granites (Hake Batholith on the west; Cassiar Batholith to the east) are three belts of metamorphic rocks, collectively part of Yukon-Tanana Terrane (Mortensen, 1992). These are remnants of oceanic and continental volcanic arcs, and marginal basin sediments of Early to...

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.

This GIS dataset is a Yukon-wide compilation of detailed statigraphic section descriptions from 421 locations as depicted on 51 published and unpublished surficial geology maps of various scales produced by the Geological Survey of Canada and Yukon Geological Survey. Attribute data for 1198...

NGR surveys were originally conducted in the Watson Lake map area in 1995. Stream sediment and water samples were collected from a total of 1117 sample sites. A total of 824 original samples were selected for reanalysis. Representative 2 gram splits were successfully recovered from 824 samples....

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

Surficial geological map (1:50 000 scale) and till geochemistry (copper, lead, zinc, gold, silver, chromium, nickel, mercury, antimony, arsenic) of Weasel Lake area, central Yukon (NTS 105 G/13).

The world production of diamonds in 1990 was more than 100 million carats (metric carats, or CM; 1 carat = 0.2 grams), compared to 75 million in 1985, and 15 million in 1950. This represents a more than 14% per year growth rate. The value of 1990 production was about US$4.5 billion (1992 US$),...

A placer mining and exploration compilation of NTS map sheets 115 I and 115 J/K, southern Yukon Territory, Canada. This compilation includes the location, history and previous work, description of bedrock geology, surficial geology and mineralization, as well as lists of related references....

Glacial limits and ice-flow map (1:250 000 scale) of Mayo area, central Yukon (parts of NTS 115 P northeast, 116 A southeast, 105 M northwest and 106 D southwest).

Yukon Exploration and Geology 2007

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...

This map was compiled from data obtained as a result of an aeromagnetic survey carried out by Fugro Airborne Surveys using a Cessna Caravan (registration C-FZLK) aircraft. A 0.005 nT sensitivity split-beam cesium vapour magnetometer was mounted in the tail boom of the survey aircraft. The survey...

Yukon Exploration 1985-1986 provides details of exploration and mining activity in the Yukon, including placer mining. It discusses the geology of Yukon mineral deposits and mineral districts under active investigation and provides a summary of exploration work done by mineral exploration...
