Yukon Drill Core Locations from the H.S. Bostock Library

The H.S. Bostock Core Library repository contains drill core and rock samples from Yukon mineral properties and geological mapping programs. This dataset provides collar coordinates and associated metadata for the sample collection points. The data is published by the Government of Yukon under an open license.

Use Cases

• Map mineral deposit locations based on drill core collar coordinates.
• Analyze spatial distribution of historical exploration based on sample metadata.
• Support geological mapping programs by integrating core sample site data.

Strengths

• Data originates from the official H.S. Bostock Core Library repository.
• Includes precise collar coordinates for physical sample locations.
• Associated metadata provides context for the core samples.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Freshness should be verified as the last update is listed as 2026-05-20.
