533,434 tonnes of drill-indicated reserves grading 6.1% Pb, 4.8% Zn and 102.9 g/t Ag were calculated for the Matt Berry deposit in 1979. The Government of Yukon provides data on this deposit, which consists of massive galena, sphalerite, pyrrhotite and chalcopyrite in Paleozoic phyllite. A 1987 geochemical and geophysical survey outlined a new exploration target 1 km along strike to the southeast.
Use Cases
- Estimate mineral resource potential based on drill-indicated reserve tonnage and grade percentages.
- Analyze geological structure based on the description of concordant layers in Paleozoic phyllite.
- Plan exploration activities based on the 1987 survey outlining a new target 1 km southeast.
- Model mineralization replacement patterns based on the described shear zone strike and dip.
Strengths
- Reserve estimates include specific tonnage (533,434 tonnes) and grade percentages (6.1% Pb, 4.8% Zn, 102.9 g/t Ag).
- Description provides specific geological context including mineral types, host rock, and structural features.
- Data originates from the authoritative Government of Yukon.
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; the last metadata update is 2026-04-17.
