Government of Yukon data describes the geological setting of retrogressed eclogite and nephrite jade in the southern Campbell Range, Frances Lake area. The dataset covers stratigraphy deformed by syn- to post-Early Permian folding events and fault structures juxtaposing different rock groups. It was last updated on April 17, 2026.
Use Cases
- Mapping regional geological structures based on described fault and folding events
- Studying the formation of nephrite jade based on metasomatic replacement processes
- Analyzing stratigraphic relationships between described volcaniclastic, epiclastic, and sedimentary units
- Investigating retrogressed eclogite occurrences within serpentinite and fault contacts
Strengths
- Specific geological formations (Tuchitua River, Money Creek, Fortin Creek group) are identified
- Distinct structural events (three syn- to post-Early Permian folding events) are described
- Specific mineral occurrences (retrogressed eclogite, nephrite jade) are documented
Limitations
- Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
- Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
- Data may reflect geographic bias inherent to the specific Yukon field area
