Surficial and geochemical evolution of periglacial soils : applications to mineral exploration in Yukon

Exploration geochemistry is a powerful tool when exploring for gold deposits in periglacial environments, such as west-central Yukon. However, this study identified two main challenges to using soils as indicators of bedrock mineralization: 1) the variability of sample material over the scale of hu...
