| Summary | (Plain Language Summary, not published)
This multicomponent Open File presents zircon U-Pb (12 samples) results for rocks sampled from select units in the Mount Nansen area of Yukon Territory,
Canada. This analytical work was conducted as part of the Crustal Blocks activity of the GEM (Geomapping for Energy and Minerals) program of the Geological Survey of Canada (see Ryan et al. (2015; 2016) for details). |
