Text Description: Prominent, 20-cm-thick bed in the uppermost part of the stratified sediments. It has a silty loam texture with abundant chunky and platy glass shards as well as pumice fragments. Conspicuous minerals include feldspar, hypersthene, biotite, hornblende, magnetite and ilmenite; minor minerals include apatite and a pink zircon. References: ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Fort_Selkirk | 62.8 | -137.39998 | Westgate, J. A. | 1480000 ± 110000 glass - FT; 10311; Age is approximate. Weighted mean age based on eight analyses corrected for partial track fading (two analyses from UT81 and six analyses from UT82); Westgate and others (2001). | Fort Selkirk area, close to the confluence of the Yukon and Pelly Rivers, Yukon Territory, Canada. Sections on the right bank of the Yukon River, immediately downstream of Fort Selkirk, expose glacial deposits that are sandwiched between an upper and a lower sequence of basalt flows. Till is overlain by a fining-upward succession of stratified sediments consisting of poorly sorted gravel, sand, Fort Selkirk tephra, and silt. Location imprecisely georeferenced from Figure 1 in Westgate et al. (2001). | Prominent, 20-cm-thick bed in the uppermost part of the stratified sediments. It has a silty loam texture with abundant chunky and platy glass shards as well as pumice fragments. Conspicuous minerals include feldspar, hypersthene, biotite, hornblende, magnetite and ilmenite; minor minerals include apatite and a pink zircon. | UT81 | Tephra Fall | Cumulate | Glass | 76.23 | 0.21 | 14.43 | 0.97 | 1.22 | 4.43 | 2.59 | 10311 | EMP | 0.97 | Cl=0.13; H2O=8.28 | EMP | 1.25 | 930 | 16.4 | 29 | 10 | 1.87 | 0.52 | 0.21 | 0.97 | 0.17 | 2.52 | 0.47 | 5.7 | 1.6 | 2.17 | 1792 | INAA |
