Valley Deposit: Geological Overview and Mineral Resource Estimate

The Valley deposit is located 367 km northeast of Whitehorse in east-central Yukon. It is a reduced intrusion-related gold system with an initial mineral resource estimate of 76 Mt at 1.66 g/t Au for 4.05 Moz Au indicated and 81 Mt at 1.25 g/t Au for 3.26 Moz Au inferred. The dataset provides a geological introduction and overview published by the Government of Yukon.

Use Cases

• Study intrusion-related gold system characteristics based on the description of sheeted quartz-carbonate veins and multi-phase granodiorite intrusion.
• Analyze the relationship between vein density and gold grade based on the described correlation of >10 veins per metre with >1 g/t Au.
• Evaluate mineral resource estimation methodologies based on the provided Indicated and Inferred resource figures.
• Research the evolution of magmatic systems based on the description of physically and chemically distinct intrusion phases.

Strengths

• Includes specific mineral resource estimates: 76 Mt at 1.66 g/t Au for 4.05 Moz Au indicated and 81 Mt at 1.25 g/t Au for 3.26 Moz Au inferred.
• Provides precise geographic location: 367 km northeast of Whitehorse in east-central Yukon.
• Contains detailed geological characterization of the deposit type, mineralization style, and host rock.

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 a single deposit study.
