“Structural Analysis and Timing Constraints of Gold Deposits in the Tombstone Strain Zone, YK, Canada"
The Mt. Hinton property found within Tombstone Strain Zone contains structurally-hosted gold veins that do not adhere to the deposit models of the surrounding regional area. Deformation within the property between the Late Jurassic and Late Cretaceous likely facilitated fluid movement that precipitated along formed deformation structures. My research will focus on conducting a detailed structural analysis of the area and determining the relationship between structures and mineralization to form a more constrained deposit model of the area. Methods such as structural mapping, geochronology, and dynamic recrystallization will be used to complete this project.
