La Commission géologique du Yukon (CGY) [...] est devenue, en septembre 2005, une Direction au sein de la Division du pétrole, du gaz et des minéraux du ministère de l'Énergie, des Mines et des Ressources. La CGY ne fait donc plus partie de la Division des ressources minérales. Elle a maintenant le mandat de fournir de l'information en appui à l'exploration, à la mise en valeur et à la gestion des ressources non seulement minérales, mais aussi pétrolières et gazières et, dans une moindre mesure, d'autres ressources comme les forêts. La CGY fait actuellement l'objet d'une réorganisation en vue de répondre de façon efficace à ses nouvelles responsabilités, qui découlent d'un niveau de gestion plus élevé et d'un mandat élargi. La CGY est maintenant constituée de quatre services : Services techniques, Services minéraux, Géologie régionale, et Évaluations des minéraux et des hydrocarbures. 3, record 1, French, - Commission%20g%C3%A9ologique%20du%20Yukon
