The Duke River fault, southwest Yukon: Preliminary examination of the relationships between Wrangellia and the Alexander terrane
The Duke River fault is a terrane-bounding structure that separates the Alexander terrane from Wrangellia in southwest Yukon. Detailed geological mapping and sampling of three key areas along the fault was completed in August 2009. In these areas, the fault juxtaposes multiply folded, pervasively foliated, greenschist facies rocks of the Alexander terrane against low-grade Wrangellian rocks that record only one phase of folding. Shear bands, fold orientations, rotated grains, lineations, mica fish and fault plane orientations indicate that the Alexander terrane has been thrust over Wrangellia. Preliminary 40Ar/39Ar ages from muscovite grains that may have been reset by motions along the Duke River fault or grown during faulting range from 90-104 Ma, suggesting that movement along the fault is at least as old as Cretaceous. Miocene felsic intrusions and Miocene to Pliocene crustal tuffs of the Wrangell lavas have been deformed by the Duke River fault, suggesting movement occurred as recently as the Pliocene

The Tummel fault zone, a northwest-trending belt of rocks of uncertain age and/or tectonic affinity, separates Paleozoic miogeoclinal strata of Cassiar Terrane from Yukon-Tanana Terrane metavolcanic and metasedimentary rocks. Northeast of the fault, Cassiar Terrane comprises pelitic and semipelitic rocks with rare amphibolite, which are correlated with the Kechika Group. These are overlain by carbonate correlated with the Askin Group. Southwest of the fault, in Yukon-Tanana Terrane, Devono-Mississippian siliciclastic rocks are overlain by Mississippian arc volcanic rocks. Granodiorite and diorite of the Telegraph Plutonic Suite (348-350 Ma) intrude the siliciclastic rocks. Foliated greenstone, leucogabbro intrusions, serpentinite and chert occur in the Tummel fault zone. The Early Cretaceous Glenlyon Batholith intrudes strata of Cassiar Terrane. Contact metamorphism recognized across the Tummel fault zone is interpreted to have been imposed by the Glenlyon Batholith. If correct, this interpretation requires that post-mid-Cretaceous displacement across the Tummel fault zone has been minimal (~5 km).
