Comparative studies of cataclastic allochtonous rocks in McQuesten, Laberge and Finlayson Lake map-areas

The recent tectonic synthesis of central Yukon outlines the affinity of several groups of cataclastic rocks preserved mostly as allochthonous sheets. The subduction processes thought to have produced these rocks generated high pressure metamorphic mineral assemblages which, if preserved, can be used to correlate lithologies and explain their history. Detailed comparison of portions of the allochtonous sheets may thus contribute to exploration efforts.
