DGGS and U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) staff identified the Mount Fairplay and the Ladue River drainage area as having underexplored potential to host deposits of critical minerals, including rare earth elements (REE), uranium, niobium, zirconium, tin, tungsten, bismuth, and rhenium, as well as conventional mineral resources including gold, copper, molybdenum, lead, zinc, and silver. The goal of this U-Pb isotopic study is to better understand the Devonian through Paleogene magmatic and tectonic events, which have been linked to most of the known mineralization in the Yukon-Tanana Uplands.
