This high sensitivity aeromagnetic survey was carried out by Goldak Airborne Surveys (Goldak) on behalf of the Geological Survey of Canada (GSC) between January 25th and March 26th, 2011. Aircraft equipment operated included three cesium vapour magnetometers, a GPS real-time and post-corrected differential positioning system, a flight path recovery camera, VHS titling and recording system, as well as radar and barometric altimeters. All data were recorded digitally in GEDAS binary file format. Reference ground equipment included two GEM Systems GSM-19W Overhauser magnetometers and a Novatel 12 channel GPS base station which was set up at the base of operations for differential post-flight corrections. Eighty two flights (including test and calibration sorties) were required to complete the survey block. A total of 37,999 line kilometres of high resolution magnetic data were collected, processed and plotted. The traverse lines were flown at a spacing of 400 m with control lines flown at a separation of 2400 m. Nominal terrain clearance was specified at 100 m above ground.

Aurora Geosciences Ltd was contracted to perform a review of publicly available digital magnetic geophysical data submitted with assessment reports to develop standardized products and compilations. Data submitted prior to March 2015 were considered. Individual assessment report data were levelled and integrated with 1:250 000 compilations. Four gridded PDFs have been produced (residual total magnetic field, reduced to pole, vertical derivative and tilt derivative). Original 250k geophysical data can be found in YGS Open File 2017-32.

Reprocessing of magnetic data for Yukon was performed between November 2016 and March 2017. Aeromagnetic data were compiled, data of different resolutions were merged, and a series of images individually levelled for each map sheet were produced. For each 250k-scale map, the following magnetic derivative maps were produced: 1. Residual Total Magnetic Field; 2. Reduced-to-Pole Magnetic Field (RTP); 3. First Vertical Derivative of the Reduced-to-Pole Magnetic Field (RTP_VD); and 4. Tilt Derivative of the Reduced-to-Pole Magnetic Field (RTP_TDR). These maps are provided as pdfs, geotiffs and Geosoft grid files. Colour ramps/legends are provided for each map.

This aeromagnetic survey was carried out by Geo Data Solutions GDS Inc. from January 12, 2018 to March 16, 2018. The data were recorded using split-beam cesium vapour magnetometers mounted in the tail booms of a Beechcraft King Air and a Piper Navajo. The nominal traverse and control line spacings were 400 m and 2400 m, and the aircraft flew at a nominal terrain clearance of 150 m. Travers lines were oriented N45°E with orthogonal control lines.

This map of the total magnetic field was derived from data acquired during an aeromagnetic survey carried out by EON Geosciences Inc. in the period between April 10, 2009 and September 16, 2009. The data were recorded using split-beam cesium vapour magnetometers (sensitivity =0.005 nT) mounted in each of the tail booms of a Piper Navajo and a Cessna 206 aircraft. The nominal traverse and control line spacings were, respectively, 800 m and 2 400 m, and the aircraft flew at a nominal terrain clearance of 250 m. Traverse lines were oriented N90°E with orthogonal control lines. The flight path was recovered following post-flight differential corrections to the raw Global Positioning System data and inspection of ground images recorded by a vertically-mounted video camera. The survey was flown on a pre-determined flight surface to minimize differences in magnetic values at the intersections of control and traverse lines. These differences were computer-analysed to obtain a mutually levelled set of flight-line magnetic data. The levelled values were then interpolated to a 200 m grid. The International Geomagnetic Reference Field (IGRF) was not removed from the magnetic field.
