Geological mapping in Wolverine Lake area has outlined new Yukon-Tanana Terrane stratigraphy, constrained the stratigraphic position of the Wolverine Lake volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) deposit, and clarified the relationship of Yukon-Tanana Terrane to the Campbell Range belt. Yukon-Tanana Terrane comprises two stratigraphic successions separated by an angular unconformity. Beneath the unconformity are polydeformed felsic and mafic meta-volcanic rocks, carbonaceous meta-clastic rocks, marble and granitic orthogneiss. The Kudz Ze Kayah VMS deposit occurs in felsic meta-volcanic rocks of this sequence. Yukon-Tanana Terrane rocks above the unconformity are deformed by only one phase of deformation and consist primarily of carbonaceous meta-clastic rocks and quartz- and feldspar-phyric felsic meta-volcanic rocks. The Wolverine VMS deposit occurs in this succession, associated with siliceous exhalite and baritic magnetite iron formation. Meta-basalt of the Campbell Range belt, included previously in Slide Mountain Terrane, overlies the upper succession of Yukon-Tanana Terrane with sharp contact. This contact has been observed at several localities and it appears depositional. There is no evidence that it is a terrane boundary fault.
