Whitehorse Copper Belt: A Simplified Technical History

The Whitehorse Copper Belt is a northwest-trending chain of copper-bearing skarn deposits, located four kilometres west of the city of Whitehorse (NTS 105 D). The belt extends parallel to the Alaska Highway for thirty kilometres, from the Crestview subdivision to the junction of the Alaska Highway and the South Klondike Highway. From the time Jack McIntyre staked the Copper King in 1898, the belt has been vigorously prospected and mined for its valuable copper, gold and silver metals.
