SUPPLEMENT TO OPEN-FILE REPORT 77-432

PART A SUMMARIES OF DATA TO JUNE 1, 1981

By

Edward H. Cobb

Open-File Report 81-1313A 

1981

This report is preliminary and has not been reviewed 

for conformity with U.S. Geological Survey editorial 

standards and stratigraphic nomenclature.
Introduction

This report was prepared as a supplement to a 1977 report which 

summarized data on .mineral occurrences in the Tanana quadrangle, Alaska (Cobb, E. H., 1977, Summary of references to mineral occurrences 

(other than mineral fuels and construction materials) in the Tanana quadrangle, Alaska: U.S. Geological Survey Open-File Report 77-432, 110 p.). 

As a result of suggestions from users of the series of which to 1977 

report is a part, this supplement is released in two parts: Part A, 

which presents summaries of data to June 1, 1981, and Part B, which consists of reference lists for each occurrence.

In Part A data from most reports released by the Geological Survey, the U.S. Bureau of Mines, and the Alaska Division of Geological 

and Geophysical Surveys bewteen the cut-off date (January 1, 1977) for 

the original report and June 1, 1981 have been incorporated in rewritten 

or new summaries where appropriate. For each occurrence described in 

Part A the name, U.S. Bureau of Mines mining district, reference that 

has the occurrence plotted on a map on a scale of 1:250,000 (if there is 

one), list of mineral commodities, and location data are in the same format as in the 1977 report. Also included is a list of synonyms, owners, 

operators, and claim names.

In both parts citations are in standard bibliographic format with 

the exception that references to reports and maps in numbered publication 

series also show, in parentheses, an abbreviation for the report of map 

series and the number of the report or map. Abbreviations used are:

B U.S. Geological Survey Bulletin

BMB U.S. Bureau of Mines Bulletin

C U.S. Geological Survey Circular

GC Alaska Division of Mines and Minerals Geochemical Report

MF U.S. Geological Survey Miscellaneous Field Studies Map

P U.S. Geological Survey Professional Paper

RI U.S. Bureau of Mines Report of Investigations

TDM Alaska Territorial Department of Mines Pamphlet

USBM OF U.S. Bureau of Mines Open-File Report

In Part B citations to the principal references used in preparing 

summaries in Part A are preceded by an asterisk. The form of citation 

used in the reference list for each occurrence is considered sufficient 

identification for each numbered report or map to be found easily in most 

libraries. Complete references to reports without identifying numbers 

are listed at the end of Part B.

Hot Springs district Tanana (13.2-13.55, 1.5-2.15) 

MF-371, loc. 20 65005'-65007'N, 151 O 10'-151°13'¥

Stream roughly parallel to regional strike of contorted Jurassic(?) and 

Cretaceous phyllite, slate, shale, sandstone, and siltstone. Valley 

asymmetrical with steeper southeast wall. Placer gold discovered in 

1911 and mined in most years through at least 1975; one or two dredges, 

operated from 1917 through 1940; production through 1940 probably at 

least 70,000 fine oz of gold. Depth to bedrock generally about 15 ft; 

alluvium frozen, requiring thawing ahead of mining. Gold in lower 4 ft 

of gravel and in top 2-3 ft of bedrock. In addition to gold, concentrates

At least 6 mineralized shear zones in metamorphosed Jura-Cretaceous sedimentary rocks close to and roughly parallel to the contact with a large 

Tertiary biotite granite intrusive body. Most of the material oxidized 

to a depth of at least 446 ft (deepest diamond-drill hole). Sulfides identified are galena, chalcopyrite, pyrrhotite, and pyrite. Other minerals 

include siderite, cerussite, limonite, goethite, hematite, pyrolusite, 

malachite, azurite, and erythrite (cobalt bloom). Assays of oxidized

Stream cuts through benches east of Minook Cr. and into fractured greenstone of Permian to Triassic Rampart Group in a narrow V-shaped valley 

with low gravel benches. Both creek and bench deposits have been mined; 

in places 16 in. of bedrock had to be taken up with the gravel. Much of 

gold is "pumpkin seed," but some is nuggets as large as 10 oz. One assay 

indicated fineness of 919. Mining began by 1896 and continued until at 

least as recently as 1940. Most concentrate samples and much of mining 

in part of creek in Livengood quad. Total production not known, but 

probably was a few tens of thousands of oz. See also (Hunter Cr.), 

Livengood quad.

Small gossan (MF-371, loc. 5; at 65°05'N, 150°57'W) in quartzite; random 

sample contained 1.34 oz/ton Ag. Placer deposit (MF-371, loc. 28; at 

65°05'N, 150°55'W) consisted of small, discontinuous, not particularly 

rich concentrations in as much as 40 ft of gravel; total depth to bedrock 

is 24-85 ft. Total recorded production, 1907-56, was 61 oz gold and 300 

Ib cassiterite concentrate; probably total production was much more and 

mainly included with that from Sullivan Cr. Concentrates contained gold 

and cassiterite and (by implication in a general statement) aeschynite, 

columbite, monazite, and zircon. Tailings piles contain cobbles of brecciated quartz with brown tourmaline and cassiterite. Recovery from 

samples of tailings averaged 2.67 Ib concentrate per yd3 containing 1.00

Discovered by drilling program in 1912. Sporadic drift mining and resluicing of old tailings piles until 1940. Old channel cut across a series 

of terraces in bedrock with local enrichment at each channel-terrace intersection. Pay gravel in fairly continuous narrow pay streak beneath 35-120 

ft of muck. Concentrates contain gold, cassiterite, columbite, and probably 

aeschynite, monazite, and zircon (reference, Moxham, 1954 (C 317), p. 5) is 

not clear). Total production through 1956 was 17,576 oz gold, 2,668 oz 

silver, and 101,875 Ib cassiterite concentrate. Analyses of U.S. Bureau of 

Mines channel samples of tailings piles indicated per yd3 recovery of 2.635 

Ib concentrate containing 0.775 Ib Sn, 0.0175 Ib Nb205, and 0.0175 oz Au.

Gold discovered in 1890's. Valley narrow; incised into closely folded 

middle Paleozoic slate, limestone, quartzite, and schist and Permian to 

Triassic diabase, shale, and tuff; Tertiary continental rocks near mouth. 

Valley has several terraces on east side at elevations above creek of 10 

to about 1,000 ft near mouth; some terraces extend up tributary valleys; 

terraces approach creek gradient upstream. Top terrace capped by 100 ft 

of Pliocene(?) gravel. Terrace gravels auriferous; gold reconcentrated 

into rich placers on some of tributaries, but placers on main stream too 

low grade to support small-scale mining. Much of mining was bar sniping 

and small operations in richer spots. In places most of gold (probably 

of local derivation rather than from the benches) was in nuggets weighing 1-4 oz. Total production certainly was no more than a few thousand 

ounces; may have been less than 1,000 oz; most of reported mining probably 

was on tributaries. Nuggets of native silver accompany gold. Includes
