Surficial geology, Dahadinni River, Northwest Territories, NTS 95-N southwest / authors, A. Duk-Rodkin and D.H. Huntley.: M183-1/297-2016E-PDF
"The surficial geology represented in this map has been prepared at 1:50 000 scale and published at 1:100 000 scale. The surficial deposits cover approximately 65% of the map-area. About 40% of the total surface is covered by till (units Tb, Tv, Tp, Td, Tr, Tm, Tx). Lacustrine (units Lp, Lb, L v, Lm and Lx) deposits cover about 7% of the area corresponding to "glacial Lake Redstone". About 15% of the area is covered by slope deposits (units Cv, Cx and Cz) the main component being landslide deposits (unit Cz). Glaciofluvial sediments (units Gt, Gp, Gd, Gf, Gv and Gx) cover about 2% of the map area forming terraces along the Dahadinni River, Marten Creek, and a northern tributary to Root River that drains between Dusky and Rouge ranges. About 2% are alluvial deposits (units Ap, Af and Ax). Peat deposits cover about 2%. Bedrock covers about 32% of the map area. It is represented mainly by Devonian shale, limestone and sandstone, and minor Ordovician and Silurian dolomite"--Abstract.
