YUKON EXPLORATION AND GEOLOGY 2004 121 Lead isotope signatures of Tintina Gold Province intrusions and associated mineral deposits from southeastern Yukon and southwestern Northwest Territories: Implications for exploration in the southeastern
This paper presents new lead isotope data from intrusive rocks and several mineral deposits from the southeastern portion of the Tintina Gold Province (TGP). Lead isotopic studies of feldspars separated from various mid-Cretaceous intrusions in the study area and sulphide minerals from a number of m...
