Geological data for the northwestern Lansing map area (105 N) in Yukon describes upper Paleozoic stratigraphic units with potential for massive sulphide mineralization. The Government of Yukon published this information, which was last updated on April 17, 2026. The area lacks known mineral occurrences but contains units similar to those at known volcanic-hosted and sedimentary exhalative deposits.
Use Cases
- Identify potential mineralization zones based on descriptions of pyritic and baritic Earn Group strata.
- Analyze geological structure based on descriptions of cleaved, folded, and faulted sedimentary rocks.
- Compare regional geology based on descriptions of less strained rocks compared to adjacent Mayo map area.
- Locate intrusive bodies based on the mention of a muscovite granite intruding phyllite.
- Map fault systems based on descriptions of the Robert Service Thrust and northwest-trending faults.
Strengths
- Data is published by the Government of Yukon, an authoritative source.
- Description provides specific geological comparisons to known deposits like Marg and Macmillan Pass.
- Last updated date of April 17, 2026 is explicitly provided.
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 open_canada platform.
