Metal Dispersion in Soils and Tills Near Keno Hill, Yukon

A geological study from the Government of Yukon examines the relationship between metal dispersion in soils and tills and known bedrock sources in the Keno Hill area. The dataset, last updated in March 2026, is provided in HTML format under a Yukon open government license.

Use Cases

• Analyze the spatial relationship between bedrock sources and metal concentrations in soils and tills.
• Model geochemical dispersion patterns of metals from known mineralized bedrock.
• Correlate soil and till geochemistry with underlying geological units for exploration targeting.

Strengths

• Sourced from the authoritative Government of Yukon.
• Focuses on a specific, well-known mineral district (Keno Hill, Yukon).
• Examines the direct relationship between bedrock sources and surface geochemical dispersion.

Limitations

• Data structure and specific variables (e.g., metal types, coordinates) are not defined in the input.
• Available only in HTML format, which may complicate quantitative analysis.
• Sample size, geographic extent, and temporal coverage are unspecified.
