Bedrock geology, Polley Hill, Yukon / author, L.S. Lane.: M183-1/129-2013E-PDF

"This new 1:50,000 scale GIS map of bedrock geology provides a needed update to previous, smaller scale maps produced in the early 1980's in light of accumulated advances in defining the regional stratigraphic successions and deformation history, as well as modern, more accurate base maps. This area covers part of the Richardson Mountains on the northeast margin of Eagle Plain which contains a proven petroleum resource. This part of the Richardson Mountains is also adjacent to one of the most seismically active areas in northern Canada. This map will provide geoscience knowledge to support land use decision making, including seismic hazard analysis, and resource exploration decisions"--Abstract.
