| Résumé | (disponible en anglais seulement)
This publication utilizes lithostratigraphic information provided by the revised and updated seismic shothole drillers' log database (GSC Open File 6833), and
two other borehole databases, to identify potential granular aggregate resources. Lithostratigraphic records are interpreted and presented in a GIS at two depth intervals; upper 10 m (76 958 records) and total shothole depth (89 019 records), and are
distinguished by location (surface vs. subsurface) and sediment type (gravel; gravel + sand; sand). This point-stratigraphic information is augmented by including granular aggregate-associated surficial geology map polygons (e.g., glaciofluvial
deposits) from published and in progress maps throughout the Mackenzie corridor and northern Yukon. Where shothole records intersect map polygons, they can confirm the existence of aerially extensive surface granular aggregate deposits, and by
extension provide a characterization of their sedimentology and thickness. Where shothole data occurs outside of granular aggregate-associed map polygons they can identify sites potentially obscured by vegetation or missed during surficial geology
mapping. They also identify deposits in areas that have yet to be mapped. |
