Report of activities, 2017 : Dunite Peak area, Big Salmon Range, south-central Yukon : GEM2 Cordillera project / A.J. Parsons, J.J. Ryan, and M. Coleman.: M183-2/8307E-PDF
“This open file report outlines the 2017 field activities conducted in the Dunite Peak area of the Big Salmon Range, south central Yukon, as part of the Geo-mapping for Energy and Minerals (GEM-2) program Cordillera project. Following from 2016 field activities in the same region, targeted bedrock geological mapping and sampling was conducted to test new hypotheses and gain better understanding of the deformation processes responsible for the tectonic assembly of the NW Cordillera and the timing of specific events during collision with and accretion to the North American craton. The results of 2017 field activities provide a clearer picture of the petrogenesis of the Dunite Peak ophiolite and allow for completion of a geological map for the area”--Project summary, p. 4.
