Description
Summary:This is dataset comprises: major-element geochemistry, physical properties (magnetic susceptibility, natural remanent magnetization, density, porosity), and mineralogy (XRD and TGA) for ophiolitic ultramafic rocks in British Columbia. The authors thank FPX Nickel Corp. and Dejan Milidragovic for facilitating access to samples from the Decar and Hogem areas. Alex Zagorevski is thanked for providing samples and data from the King Mountain, S. Yukon, Nahlin, and parts of Atlin; these samples were collected as part of the Geo-Mapping 681 for Energy and 682 Minerals-2 (GEM-2) program. The authors also acknowledge that all samples used in this study were collected from the traditional and unceded territories of Taku River Klingit, Kaska Dena, Tāłtān Konelīne, Carcross/Tagish, Teslin Tlingit, Tl'azt'en, Binche Whut'en, Yekooche, and Takla First Nations. Funding is provided by Natural Science and Engineering Research Council (NSERC) discovery grants to GMD (RGPIN-2015-05036) and SMP (RGPIN-2020-07066), and Natural Resources Canada Clean Growth Program grant (CGP-17-0739), and Geoscience BC grant (2018-038) to GMD.
