Fall 2016
The Alaska Highway through Southwestern Yukon is located in the discontinuous permafrost zone with many areas of the highway corridor associated with degrading permafrost. Given the strategic value of the corridor, it is critical to have a clear understanding of permafrost characteristics and...

Diagenetic Controls on Hydrothermal Fluid Flow in the Osiris, Isis, and Isis East Carlin-Type Gold Showings, Nadaleen Trend, Yukon
DownloadFall 2015
Following ATAC Resources Ltd.’s 2010 discovery of the gold prospects in the Nadaleen Trend (Central Yukon), company geologists and consultants determined that Precambrian carbonate rocks within the trend contain large endowments of gold located in the hinges of anticlines and fault zones. ...

Diagnostic Features of the Rocks and Minerals Peripheral to the Highland Valley Copper District, British Columbia, Canada: Implications for the genesis of porphyry Cu systems and their footprints
DownloadSpring 2019
The Highland Valley Copper (HVC) porphyry Cu (±Mo) district is Canada’s largest and longest operating mine. Globally, exploration expenditure has been increasing, yet very few new resources have been discovered, despite the anticipated Cu demand for the future. Hosted in the Triassic Guichon...

Genesis and controls on mineralization at the Hammer Zone silver showing, Mount Mye Trend, hosted by the Anvil Batholith, South-Central Yukon
DownloadFall 2017
When Silver Range resources acquired the Keg property in 2010, one of the prospects included was the Hammer Zone. Ensuing mapping and surface sampling found the Hammer Zone to be a small, bonanza-grade, epithermal silver system contained entirely within the Anvil Batholith. Initial petrographic...

Geochemical Characterization and Fluid History of the Tiger Zone; a Tertiary Distal Carbonate-Replacement Intrusion-Related Gold Deposit, Central Yukon
DownloadSpring 2013
A paragenetic and geochemical study has resulted in the classification of the Tiger zone as a Tertiary-aged intrusion-related gold deposit. Gold-bearing mineralization occurs in two geochemically and temporally distinct assemblages. The first assemblage contains carbonate-replacement,...

Indicators of gold mineralization in the Yellowknife greenstone belt: a lithogeochemistry and mineralogy study
DownloadSpring 2021
Geochemical signatures within an economic deposit are an important indicator used in the exploration of high-grade mineralization. In this study, we aim to identify elements that can act as geochemical indicators for orogenic gold within the Yellowknife greenstone belt that allow the...

Spring 2010
Carbon isotope analyses of gases extracted from drilling muds while drilling in the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin (WCSB) can be used to create carbon isotopic depth profiles. These profiles provide essentially continuous data through the stratigraphic section, offering a unique opportunity to...

Sedimentology, diagenesis, and dolomitization of the Brac Formation (Lower Oligocene), Cayman Brac, British West Indies
DownloadFall 2009
The Oligocene Brac Formation is the oldest part of the Bluff Group that is exposed on Cayman Brac. Sediments of the Brac Formation were deposited on a small, open bank in shallow marine waters. Today, the formation is composed of limestone, finely crystalline dolostone, and coarsely crystalline...

The paragenesis and geochemistry of the Bellekeno Ag-Pb-Zn vein, Keno Hill district, Yukon, Canada
DownloadFall 2013
The Keno Hill district Ag-Pb-Zn deposit occurs within the Tombstone-Tungsten Belt, Yukon. Vein mineralization, dominated by siderite, sphalerite, and galena, is spatially associated with, but paragenetically later than, intrusion-related gold mineralization. A direct genetic link between the Keno...
