The report subdivides the Tanglefoot formation into lower and upper members, with the upper member being coal-bearing. It was published by the Government of Yukon and last updated on 2026-04-17.
Use Cases
- Modeling hydrocarbon generation potential based on kerogen type analysis mentioned in the description.
- Analyzing structural controls on coal deposits based on descriptions of folding and intrusions.
- Correlating stratigraphic units based on detailed lithological descriptions of formations and members.
Strengths
- Detailed lithological and stratigraphic description of multiple geological formations.
- Includes analysis of kerogen types and thermal maturation indicators for hydrocarbon assessment.
- Specific geographical focus on the Division Mountain area in south-central Yukon.
Limitations
- Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
- Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
- Data may reflect geographic bias inherent to open_canada.
