Yukon Geoscience - A Blueprint for the Future (Yukon Geology Program) 1995

Mining is expected to remain as Yukon's most important industry during the next 5-10 years. The future prosperity of the mining industry in Yukon depends on the discovery of new mineral deposits. These new discoveries will depend on up to date geoscientific research: geological mapping, geochemical and geophysical surveys, and mineral deposit studies. Government and First Nations also need the results of this research to evaluate mineral potential and assist with land use planning and environmental impact assessments. With this in mind, the Geological Survey of Canada, Northern Affairs Program (DIAND), Government of Yukon and the Yukon Chamber of Mines collaborated on a 2-day workshop in April, 1995, to identify and prioritize Yukon's Geoscience requirements for the next 5 to 10 years. This document summarizes the results of the workshop. It represents a consensus between the four sponsoring agencies, based on input from 34 geoscientists currently working in Yukon, and will be used in planning geoscientific research to ensure that priorities are met and that maximum value is obtained from available funding.
