Aeromagnetic Survey of the Dawson Area, Yukon, 2014

Goldak Airborne Surveys conducted this aeromagnetic survey between February 17 and March 21, 2014. The data were collected using split-beam cesium vapour magnetometers mounted on two Piper Navajo aircraft. The survey covered parts of NTS 115O/14, 15, 16 and 116B/1, 2, 3, 6, 7 with a nominal terrain clearance of 125 meters.

Use Cases

• Map subsurface geological structures based on the processed magnetic field derivative.
• Support mineral exploration targeting by identifying magnetic anomalies in the Dawson area.
• Integrate with other geophysical datasets for regional geological interpretation.
• Calibrate or validate airborne magnetic survey methodologies.

Strengths

• Survey conducted over a defined period from February 17 to March 21, 2014.
• Specific technical details are provided, including a nominal terrain clearance of 125 meters and the use of split-beam cesium vapour magnetometers.
• Data is provided by the Government of Yukon, suggesting an official source.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count and dataset scale are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Data may reflect geographic and temporal bias inherent to a single survey.
