Recent mineral discoveries made by soil geochemical sampling along ridges and spurs prompted an increase in exploration in the unglaciated Klondike Plateau of west-central Yukon. Extensive and detailed soil sampling campaigns were extended across...
Map of the first vertical derivative of the magnetic field derived from data acquired during an aeromagnetic survey carried out by Goldak Airborne Surveys from November 19, 2008 to February 19, 2009. The data were recorded using a split-beam...
The following report describes the settings, causes and geological controls of landslides in the Alaska Highway corridor. Although diverse geologic, geomorphic and climatic environments exist in the region, most landslides are related to the...
Petrel Robertson Consulting Ltd. was contracted by the Yukon Geological Survey through the Geological Survey of Canada (Natural Resources Canada) to undertake a quantitative petrophysical assessment of the petroleum exploration wells drilled in...
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...
This map of the residual total magnetic field was derived from data acquired during a helicopter-borne aeromagnetic survey carried out by Fugro Airborne Surveys during the period between February 4 to March 15, 2010. The data were recorded using...
Surficial geological map (1:50 000 scale) of Keno Hill area, central Yukon (NTS 105 M/14) including marginal notes on physiography, glacial history, placer gold potential and terrain hazards. This map also includes 5 stratigraphic sections.
Placer mining involves washing stream gravel to separate and save free gold particles. Usually a placer mine must discharge excess effluent water, which contains some residual suspended fine silt and clay particles, from a settling pond, back...
Although the first claims in the Tombstone area were staked in 1901, most exploration to date has focused on high grade veins, skarns and uranium deposits, and pre-dates the search for bulk tonnage gold or shale-hosted nickel. Early...
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...
