IIn 2004, two seismic reflection lines were shot across the Mesozoic Whitehorse trough and adjacent terranes. Three-dimensional first-arrival tomographic inversion is used to constrain lithology to 800–1200 m depth, and surface structures are extrapolated into the middle crust using the coincident r...
