The Livingstone Creek area is underlain by metasedimentary and metaigneous rocks of Yukon-Tanana Terrane. It is intruded by at least five distinct suites of intrusive rocks of probable Mississippian to Late Cretaceous ages, at least three of which provide timing constraints on the development of tectonic foliations. Two phases of isoclinal folding, the development of a transposition foliation and late, northeast-vergent open folds characterize the ductile deformation in the area. Brittle-ductile dextral strike-slip deformation is localized along the north-trendingd Abbadie fault zone in the eastern part of the area. Bedrock in the area has potential for lode gold, copper-gold massive sulphide and nickel (platinum-group element?) mineralization along d'Abbadie Fault.
