Lithostratigraphic metallotect ranking of non-plutonic rocks in Yukon
The purpose of the project is to use the lithostratigraphic data in the Yukon bedrock geology geodatabase to rank geologic polygons in terms of their capability to host mineral deposits. Twelve specific mineral deposit models are considered; lithostratigraphic metallotect maps have been created for each deposit type. These maps and the associated table of metallotect rankings are envisioned as layers of information for mineral potential studies and mineral exploration.
Le gouvernement du Yukon reconnaît l’existence des territoires traditionnels des peuples autochtones partout au Yukon et souligne leur intendance de la terre et de l’eau ainsi que leur lien ancestral avec le territoire.
