- Additional information
- The 13C ratio is unusually low for terrestrial mammal bone collagen and may reflect the presence of non-collagenous contaminants.
- Comments
- KdVi-1: This is a prehistoric subsurface lithic scatter covering about 80 square metres. It is situated on an aspen-covered ridge about 280 m north of the confluence of Casino Creek with an unnamed creek, on the Casino Mine Property northwest of Carmacks. The dated bone fragments are thought to represent a large terrestrial mammal, probably an ungulate such as moose.
