The Harlan property dataset describes a sediment-hosted gold prospect in the Selwyn Basin, Yukon. Government of Yukon data includes surface geochemical sampling results defining two mineralized zones with gold concentrations up to 6.5 g/t Au. NovaGold Resources planned detailed mapping and surveys to refine drill targets for 2000.
Use Cases
- Modeling sediment-hosted gold prospectivity based on gold-arsenic-antimony-mercury-bismuth anomaly
- Analyzing spatial distribution of mineralization based on defined 1600 m by 700 m zone averaging over 500 ppb gold
- Comparing geochemical signatures between Vortex Zone and West Porphyry Zone based on rock sample and soil values
Strengths
- Defines a kilometre-scale surface anomaly with specific element associations (gold-arsenic-antimony-mercury-bismuth)
- Provides concrete geochemical values, including rock samples up to 6.5 g/t Au and soil averages over 500 ppb
- Identifies two distinct mineralized zones (Vortex Zone and West Porphyry Zone) with detailed geological descriptions
Limitations
- Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
- Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
- No drilling data is included, as the description states 'No drilling has been done on the property to date'
