Rb–Sr whole-rock age of the Klondike Schist, Yukon Territory
Seven samples of metarhyolite from a measured section of the Klondike Schist, in the Yukon Crystalline Terrane, 5 km southwest of Dawson City, give a whole-rock Rb–Sr isochron age of 202 ± 11 Ma with an initial 87 Sr/ 86 Sr ratio of 0.7140 ± 0.0001. The high initial ratio suggests that this is a met...
