Why was the data set created?

This database was initiated, designed, and populated to collect and integrate geochemical data from Pebble deposit area, Alaska in order to facilitate geologic mapping, petrologic studies, mineral resource assessment, defining geochemical baseline values and statistics, environmental impact assessment, and medical geology.

How was the data set created?

From what previous works were the data drawn?
How were the data generated, processed, and modified?

Date: 2008 (process 1 of 1)
The data were generated by the analytical laboratories of the USGS and USGS contractors during 2007-2011. Data were transmitted to a data-staging database during 2008-2011 where data were mapped to uniform field definitions.

What similar or related data should the user be aware of?

U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), 2011, Geophysical, Geochemical, and Mineralogical Data from the Pebble Cu-Au-Mo Porphyry Deposit Area, Southwest Alaska: Contributions to Assessment Techniques for Concealed Mineral Resources: U.S. Geological Survey Data Series 608, U.S. Geological Survey, Denver, CO.

How reliable are the data; what problems remain in the data set?

How well have the observations been checked?

The data of this dataset represent analyses of geologic, aqueous, and organic material samples collected in support of the Pebble porphyry copper-gold-molydenum (Cu-Au-Mo) deposit in southwest Alaska. The samples in this dataset were chemically and mineralogically analyzed by USGS laboratories and USGS-contracted laboratories over the period 2007-2011. Analytical techniques have been documented in USGS and private laboratory publications. For some elements, the methods of chemical analysis were the same throughout the study, while for others, the methods were used during one year of the study.

1) Coordinates: When samples were brought in for analysis, the submitter was required to include information about the sample for the database; descriptions, geocoding, and latitude-longitude coordinates. The sample location field sites were located using GPS receivers.  The locations determined by GPS should be accurate to the nearest latitude or longitude second.
2) Geocoding: The submission of sample descriptive information (geocoding) with samples was mandatory for some fields and optional for others.
3) Analytical Data: The samples in this data set were chemically analyzed by a variety of techniques over a period of time from 2007 to 2011. The accuracy of the data varies with the analytical methodology and with the concentration of the element being analyzed.
4) Qualifiers: A qualifier such as "<" (less than the detection limit of the analytical method) or ">" (greater than the upper determination limit of the analytical method) accompanies some analytical data values. These qualifiers are defined as follows:
"<" = the element concentration was determined to be less than the lower determination limit for the method for this element. The value of the lower limit of determination is given in the adjacent data field.
">" = the element was measured at a concentration greater than the upper determination limit for the method. The upper limit of determination is given in the adjacent data field.

How accurate are the geographic locations?
1) Coordinates: submitted samples were located using GPS receivers. The locations determined by GPS should be accurate to the nearest latitude or longitude second.
2) Datum and Earth Ellipsoid or Spheroid: the datum and spheroid are WGS84 and are identified in two fields that accompany the locational coordinates.
How accurate are the heights or depths?
Where are the gaps in the data? What is missing?
This data set provides chemical data for Ag, Al, As, Au, B, Ba, Be, Bi, Br, Ca, Cd, Ce, Cl, Co, Cr, Cs, Cu, Dy, Er, Eu, Fe, Fe(II), Fe(III), Ga, Gd, Ge, F, Hf, Hg, Ho, I, In, Ir, K, La, Li, Lu, Mg, Mn, Mo, Na, Nb, Nd, Ni, NO3, Os, P, Pb, Pd, Pr, Pt, Rb, Re, Rh, Ru, S, Sb, Sc, Se, Si, Sm, Sn, SO4, Sr, Ta, Tb, Te, Th, Ti, Tl, Tm, U, V, W, Y, Yb, Zn, Zr, forms of carbon, acidity, alkalinity, conductance, dissolved oxygen, turbidity, stream discharge and pH. It also provides mineralogic data for a wide range of parameters such as relative mineral abundance, mineral grain count, gold grain measurement, sample fraction weight, sample fraction abundance, sample fraction color, sample fraction particle size, and sample fraction composition. In addition, the data set provides location and descriptive information for each sample. Not all the descriptive fields contain information for a particular sample because it was not recorded by the submitter or because it was never entered into the database. No sample will contain analyses for all possible elements. The analytical methods used were selected by the sample submitter based on the goals of the individual project and will vary throughout the data set. The analytical methods, sample preparation protocols, and quality control protocols used for various sample media by the USGS are documented in the following publications:

How consistent are the relationships among the observations, including topology?
Data have been analyzed using uniform documented techniques. For some elements, the methods of chemical analysis were the same throughout the study, while for others, the methods changed as analytical technology improved. Some of the methods used were specifically designed to give a concentration value based on a partial digestion or extraction of the sample. For these methods elements tightly bound in the structure of silicates in the sample are not measured. Therefore, the analytical results from these partial extraction techniques may not be comparable with results from methods designed to measure the total concentration of an element in a sample.
