Geological Study of South Zone Lead-Zinc Deposits in Yukon

Eighty-nine diamond drill holes delineate three mineral deposits on the Jason property. The study focuses on the stratigraphic position, geometry, and mineralogical description of the South zone. Geological reserves for the three zones total 14.1 million tonnes averaging 7.1% Pb, 6.6% Zn, and 79.9 g/t Ag.

Use Cases

• Analyze stratigraphic position and geological relationships between the South and Main mineralized zones.
• Model deposit geometry using data from eighty-nine diamond drill holes.
• Describe mineralization in terms of mineralogical and textural facies for the South zone.
• Investigate constraints on ore formation processes based on the study's geological findings.

Strengths

• Based on eighty-nine diamond drill holes providing subsurface data.
• Includes quantified reserve estimates of 14.1 million tonnes with specific Pb, Zn, and Ag grades.
• Study addresses five specific geological questions providing analytical focus.

Limitations

• Data format is HTML, not a structured table or database, limiting direct computational analysis.
• Sample data and column definitions are unavailable, obscuring the dataset's precise structure.
• The study is geographically specific to one property in the Macmillan Pass area.
