Yukon Magnetic Geophysical Data Reprocessing for NTS 116A

A reprocessed compilation of magnetic geophysical data from the Yukon, Canada, specifically for National Topographic System map sheet 116A. Aurora Geosciences Ltd performed a review and standardization of publicly available digital magnetic data submitted with assessment reports prior to March 2015. The output includes four gridded PDF products: residual total magnetic field, reduced to pole, vertical derivative, and tilt derivative.

Use Cases

• Mineral exploration targeting based on processed magnetic field derivatives.
• Geological mapping and structural interpretation based on reduced-to-pole magnetic data.
• Integrating historical assessment data with regional compilations for regional studies.

Strengths

• Data integrated from multiple assessment reports and levelled with 1:250,000 scale compilations.
• Includes four standardized derivative products (residual, reduced-to-pole, vertical derivative, tilt derivative) for analysis.
• Original source data is documented and available in YGS Open File 2017-44.

Limitations

• Row count and specific column-level documentation are absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Data freshness should be verified as the underlying assessment reports considered were submitted prior to March 2015.
