Wolf Lake Aeromagnetic Survey Data for Yukon, Canada

From February 23, 2019 to April 2, 2019, Novatem Inc. conducted an aeromagnetic survey over the Wolf Lake area in Yukon. The data were recorded using split-beam cesium vapour magnetometers mounted on two Piper Navajo aircraft. The survey used a nominal terrain clearance of 150 m, with traverse lines spaced 400 m apart and oriented N45°E.

Use Cases

• Map subsurface geological structures based on magnetic field anomalies.
• Support mineral exploration targeting based on magnetic signatures.
• Integrate with other geophysical datasets for regional geological interpretation.

Strengths

• Survey conducted over a defined period from February 23 to April 2, 2019.
• Specific technical parameters are provided, including a 150 m nominal terrain clearance and 400 m traverse line spacing.
• Data collection method is described, using split-beam cesium vapour magnetometers on specific aircraft.

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 survey area.
