High-resolution lidar data for infrastructure corridors, Talkeetna Quadrangle, Alaska

In advance of design, permitting, and construction of a pipeline to deliver North Slope natural gas to out-of-state customers and Alaska communities, the Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys (DGGS) has acquired lidar (Light Detection and Ranging) data along proposed pipeline routes, nearby areas of infrastructure, and regions where significant geologic hazards have been identified. Lidar data will serve multiple purposes, but have primarily been collected to (1) evaluate active faulting, slope instability, thaw settlement, erosion, and other engineering constraints along proposed pipeline routes, and (2) provide a base layer for the state-federal GIS database that will be used to evaluate permit applications and construction plans. The dataset represents all classified laser returns from the lidar survey and their associated geospatial coordinates.

High-resolution lidar data for infrastructure corridors, Tanana Quadrangle, Alaska

In advance of design, permitting, and construction of a pipeline to deliver North Slope natural gas to out-of-state customers and Alaska communities, the Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys (DGGS) has acquired lidar (light detection and ranging) data along proposed pipeline routes, nearby areas of infrastructure, and regions where significant geologic hazards have been identified. Lidar data will serve multiple purposes, but have primarily been collected to (1) evaluate active faulting, slope instability, thaw settlement, erosion, and other engineering constraints along proposed pipeline routes, and (2) provide a base layer for the state-federal GIS database that will be used to evaluate permit applications and construction plans. The digital surface model represents percent canopy cover (between 0 and 1). Cover metric was computed in Fusion (McGaughey 2007), which assesses the percentage of total first returns within each cell that were returned from the canopy. For more specifics on Fusion Gridmetric outputs see the fusion manual (page 56).

Northeast Tanacross geologic map and map units and descriptions

Report of Investigation 2020-9B, Northeast Tanacross geologic map and map units and descriptions, provides 500 square miles of 1:63,360-scale geologic mapping in the northeastern Tanacross Quadrangle (Tanacross D-1, and parts of the C-1, C-2, and D-2 quadrangles), located 15 miles southeast of Chicken, Alaska. The project took place during two periods: a reconnaissance mapping effort June 12-22, 2017, and a detailed campaign June 18-July 16, 2018. The map area covers the boundary between the allochthonous Yukon-Tanana terrane (YTT) and the parautochthonous North American margin (pNA) from which the YTT initially rifted. This suture zone has a complex, multiphase structural and metamorphic history, and the northeastern Tanacross Quadrangle is one of the rare areas in which it is exposed. The conceptual framework has been developed in the literature, but it is not fully represented in previously published geologic maps of eastern Alaska. This map encompasses an area of current mineral industry interest; it includes the Taurus porphyry copper-gold-molybdenum +/- rhenium deposit and several other occurrence types, including gold, copper, and molybdenum in porphyritic intrusions, structurally controlled silver-lead-zinc prospects, and placer gold deposits. The complete report, geodatabase, and ESRI fonts and style files are available from the DGGS website: http://doi.org/10.14509/30539.

Analyses of historic U.S. Bureau of Mines samples for geochemical trace-element and rare-earth-element data from the VABM Bend area, Charley River and Eagle quadrangles, east-central Alaska

This report and digital data release presents 12 new geochemical analyses on historic U.S. Bureau of Mines (USBM) samples, including 6 rock, 4 stream sediment, and 2 heavy mineral concentrate (pan concentrate) samples. These samples were originally collected by the USBM to follow up reported tungsten anomalies in the VABM Bend area, Charley River and Eagle quadrangles, east-central Alaska. Historic USBM sample materials were retrieved by DGGS from the DGGS Geologic Materials Center (GMC), where the USBM samples were transferred as part of the federally funded Minerals Data and Information Rescue in Alaska (MDIRA) program in the late 1990s and early 2000s. The text and analytical data and tables associated with this report are being released in digital format as PDF files and .csv files. We provide analytical data, detection limits and, when available, the method documentation provided to us by the lab. We also provide the sample location in geographic coordinates, the sample material cited by the originating literature, a reference to the originating report, and the type of sample material that was obtained from the archive and sent to the lab.

Digital compilation of geochemical data for historical samples from occurrences of strategic and critical elements in Alaska: Part I - Rare-earth elements (REE)

The State of Alaska's Strategic and Critical Minerals (SCM) Assessment project, a State-funded Capital Improvement Project (CIP), is designed to evaluate Alaska's statewide potential for strategic and critical mineral resources. The SCM Assessment project is being implemented by the Alaska Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys (DGGS), and involves obtaining new airborne-geophysical, geological, and geochemical data. For the geochemical part of the SCM Assessment project, thousands of geochemical-sample analyses and locations from historical U.S. Bureau of Mines (USBM), U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), Bureau of Land Management (BLM), DGGS, Alaska Territorial Department of Mines, Alaska Division of Mines and Minerals, and Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) reports are being compiled into digital format by DGGS. The objective is to update the State of Alaska's statewide digital geochemical database in order to more clearly identify areas with SCM potential. For this report, DGGS digitally compiled sample and analyses documentation, geochemical assays, and location information for more than 4,400 historical samples that were were originally collected to investigate occurrences of strategic and critical elements throughout Alaska.

Preliminary bathymetric map of Mother Goose Lake, Alaska Peninsula

In preparation for bottom sediment coring at Mother Goose Lake, bathymetric data was collected using a Lowrance Sonar "fishfinder" (model LcX-17M) in August 2006 and August 2007. A 5-meter bathymetric contour map of the lake bottom was constructed using the GPS-sonar data in conjunction with field observations. The contour data and GPS location and depth data are provided in ESRI shapefile format for use in Geographic Information System (GIS) software.

This digital publication, GPR 2014-1, contains data produced from airborne geophysical surveys conducted in 2013 for the Talkeetna Mountains, Healy, and Mt. Hayes quadrangles in south-central Alaska. The area is in the Valdez Creek and Delta River mining districts. Aeromagnetic and electromagnetic (EM) data were acquired by helicopter for about 1310 sq miles, and additional data donated by Millrock Exploration Corporation, Anchorage, increased coverage by about 12 sq miles. Millrock also provided some infill flight lines for over a similar amount of sq miles. CGG acquired and processed all the airborne geophysical data. The data were all flown with the same systems and contract specifications. CGG's frequency-domain DIGHEM V system was used for the EM data. GPR 2014-1 includes (1) raw and processed linedata; (2) gridded, Google Earth, and Geotiff formats of the calculated linedata; (3) maps of the data and flight lines; (4) vector files of data contours and flight lines. Supporting files include gpr2014_001_readme.txt, Wrangellia_Linedata.txt, gpr2014_001_browsegraphic.pdf, and individual jpgs of some of the items in the browsegraphic file.
