Western Yukon's Stevenson Ridge area contains geological data for the Windy McKinley terrane. The dataset likely contains descriptions of subdivisions including imbricated ophiolite, fine-grained clastic rocks, and Middle Triassic gabbro intrusions. It was published by the Government of Yukon and last updated on April 17, 2026.
Use Cases
- Correlating geological subdivisions based on described terrane characteristics
- Assessing mineral potential based on described rock types and gabbro associations
- Comparing geochemical signatures with the Delta district of Alaska as suggested in the description
Strengths
- Data is associated with recent mapping work from 2007
- Includes proposed correlations with the Alaska Range Delta district
Limitations
- Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
- Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
