These historic records can be used to identify dredge localities and production values for unmined gold-bearing gravel. The data was digitized and spatially analyzed by the Government of Yukon.

Use Cases

• Identify unmined gold-bearing gravel deposits based on historic prospecting data.
• Locate dredge operation sites based on archival locality information.
• Evaluate potential for remnant in situ gold based on historic production values.
• Support placer exploration in mined areas based on technogenic deposit descriptions.

Strengths

• Data originates from detailed, accurate prospecting records of the Yukon Consolidated Gold Corporation.
• The dataset is licensed under OGL-CA-2.0 for open use.
• Platform tags indicate specific domains like Gold Mining and Historic Geology.
