Geology and U-Pb zircon geochronology and Pb isotope geochemistry of mid-Cretaceous plutonic rocks in the Mount Nansen map area (NTS 115I/3 and part of 115I/2)
The geology in the Mount Nansen area, of the Dawson Range, comprises a metamorphic basement overlain and intruded by mid and Late Cretaceous magmatic rocks. Mid-Cretaceous epithermal deposits are recognized in the Brown-McDade cluster in the south, and Late Cretaceous porphyry and epithermal occurrences in the centrally located Klaza cluster. Here we report eight new U-Pb zircon crystallization ages, two CA-TIMS and six LA-ICPMS, and Pb isotopic data for igneous feldspar from six samples. A 199.06 ± 0.96 Ma crystallization age demonstrates the host rock to the Brown-McDade deposit is the Late Triassic to Early Jurassic Minto suite. We report crystallization ages of 111 ± 1.8 Ma for the Dickson Hill porphyry, 107.96 ± 0.03 and 107.86 ± 0.03 Ma for the central and border phases of the Bow Creek granite, respectively, and 107.0 ± 0.72, 107.0 ± 0.78 and 107.5 ± 0.67 Ma for equigranular and porphyritic phases of the Dawson Range granodiorite. These ages confirm a mid-Cretaceous Whitehorse suite affinity for these rocks with porphyritic textures suggesting high-level emplacement. Feldspar Pb isotopic data of igneous rocks in the Mount Nansen area become more radiogenic with time and are distinct for Late Triassic to Early Jurassic plutonic rocks versus Cretaceous rocks. Cretaceous feldspar isotopic data broadly overlaps Pb isotopic values of galena from deposits throughout the Dawson Range suggesting coeval magmatic rocks are a significant source of metals.

U-Pb zircon geochronology from a Late Triassic pluton in the Mount Nansen area

Tectonic significance of plutonism in the Thirtymile Range, southern Yukon
공공데이터포털
Two distinct but undeformed suites of granitic plutons intrude deformed siliciclastic rocks in western Dorsey Terrane. A calc-alkaline hornblende-bearing gabbro to granodiorite stock has been dated at 181.5 Ma (by the Rb/Sr method). The second suite consists of highly evolved late-orogenic granites of the Thirtymile stock and Hake Batholith, which are approximately 100 Ma. The penetrative fabric of the metasedimentary rocks indicates generally eastward-vergent layer-parallel shear. The deformation of the siliciclastic rocks is thus constrained at older than 181 Ma. The absence of resetting of the Rb-Sr isotopic ratios of the Jurassic pluton indicates that the mid-Cretaceous magmatism was emplaced at a shallow crustal depth. Since the Jurassic pluton has both a 'juvenile' Sr isotopic ratio of 0.7045 and chemistry indicative of a largely mantle-derived source, a subduction-related setting for magma generation is likely. The spatial relationship of craton-derived clastic rocks and these plutons requires that subduction had an eastward polarity.
Revised geological map of Mount Nansen area (NTS 115/I3 and part of 115I/2)
공공데이터포털
This map presents a compilation and re-interpretation of the bedrock geology in the Mount Nansen area. It is an update from the preliminary version released in 2021. The main updates are based on new U-Pb zircon ages for Cretaceous magmatic rocks. Most economically significant are the CA-TIMS U-Pb zircon crystallization ages for the Kelly (ca. 78 Ma) and Cyprus porphyries (ca. 71 Ma) and the LA-ICPMS U-Pb zircon crystallization age of ca. 111 Ma for the Dickson Hill plug. New CA-TIMS crystallization ages (ca. 108 Ma) for two phases of the Bow Creek granite redefine that body as part of the Whitehorse magmatic suite and a new LA-ICPMS crystallization age of ca. 199 Ma from the deformed granodiorite which hosts the Brown-McDade deposit confirm a Minto suite designation for those rocks.

Geology and U-Pb zircon geochronology of upper Dorsey assemblage near the TBMB claims, upper Swift River area, southern Yukon
공공데이터포털
Meta-sandstone, siltstone and phyllite, with marble and intermediate-to-felsic tuffaceous horizons, host the Munson (TBMB) and Mod zinc-lead occurrences, about 7 km southwest of the Dan and Crescent properties. These host rocks are part of the Late Devonian Dorsey assemblage. Complexities resulting from isoclinal folding and faulting inhibit direct correlation of strata from one ridge exposure to another. The strata are overlain by dark meta-siltstone of the mid-Mississippian Swift River succession. Although faulted, the lack of a strong lithologic contrast between the units suggests only minor dislocation. Pre-Jurassic and Cretaceous granites and a diorite sill intrude the Dorsey rocks. Chloritic tuffaceous layers host showings of pyrrhotite, chalcopyrite and sphalerite; carbonate pods contain sphalerite + galena ± pyrrhotite; and quartz-feldspar meta-tuff layers are pyritic. U-Pb zircon age results for leucosome from a nearby exposure of lower Dorsey rocks indicate an approximate crystallization age of 373 Ma, and about 358 Ma for a granitic dyke in the upper Dorsey assemblage, bracketing the age of deposition of this Yukon-Tanana Terrane assemblage.

Preliminary detrital zircon geochronology of the Neruokpuk Formation in the Barn Mountains, Yukon
공공데이터포털
Neoproterozoic to Cambrian siliciclastic rocks in the Barn Mountains, Yukon are stratigraphically similar to coeval strata on the northwest Laurentian margin and the North Slope subterrane of the Arctic Alaska terrane. Sandstone samples collected for detrital zircon U/Pb geochronology from Oldhamia-bearing sections in the Barn Mountains yield age spectra with major Paleoproterozoic and subordinate Mesoproterozoic and Archean peaks that are compatible with a Laurentian cratonal provenance. Comparison of data from the Barn Mountains with available data from the Laurentian margin is permissive of derivation from either the northwestern or the north to northeastern margin of Laurentia.
U-Pb Isotopic Data and Ages of Detrital Zircon and Volcanic Zircon Grains from the Torok and Nanushuk Formations, Arctic Alaska, 2021
공공데이터포털
This dataset contains U-Pb isotopic data and associated ages of zircon grains from 27 sedimentary samples and one volcanic ash sample from the Cretaceous Torok and Nanushuk Formations. Seven samples were collected from outcrop and 21 samples were collected from archived core material from oil exploration wells on the North Slope of Arctic Alaska. Zircon grains were analyzed at the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB) between 2013 and 2018 using laser-ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICPMS) techniques. The study was funded by the Energy Resources Program of the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS).
