The Pinguicula Group is a Proterozoic succession of clastic and carbonate rocks exposed in the Wernecke Mountains of northern Yukon. The strata were deposited with angular unconformity on the Wernecke Supergroup following the Racklan orogeny and emplacement of the Hart River sills. Two contact relationships have been resolved in the 2009 field season. The first, a 1.38 Ga dike previously thought to crosscut unit A, has instead been recognized to crosscut the underlying Wernecke Supergroup strata. This relationship is significant because it once again places the lower age limit of the Pinguicula Group into question and may reposition the Pinguicula Group within the history of geologic events. Secondly, the previously undefined contact relationship between units B and C has been identified as a gradational contact confirming the placement of unit C within the Pinguicula Group. In addition, preliminary data collected from the western Ogilvie Mountains draws similarities between units PR1 and PR2 of the lower Fifteenmile Group and units A, B and C of the Pinguicula Group. Although preliminary results from the 2009 field season have resolved some of the unknowns surrounding the Pinguicula Group, they have also raised more questions.
