This database was initiated, designed, and populated to compile and integrate geochemical data from Alaska in order to facilitate geologic mapping, petrologic studies, mineral resource assessments, definition of geochemical baseline values and statistics, environmental impact assessments, and studies in medical geology. This Microsoft Access database serves as a data warehouse in support of present and future Alaskan geologic and geochemical projects, and contains data tables describing historical and new quantitative and qualitative geochemical analyses.

U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), 2011, Alaska Geochemical Database Version 2.0 (AGDB2) - Including "Best Value" Data Compilations for Geochemical Data for Rock, Sediment, Soil, Mineral, and Concentrate Sample Media: U.S. Geological Survey Data Series 759, U.S. Geological Survey, Denver, CO.
The data of this dataset represent analyses of geologic material samples collected in support of various USGS programs. The historical geochemical databases of the Geologic Discipline in the USGS were created with the intent of storing data predominately for regional projects. The new combined National Geochemical Database is an agglomerate of data from projects that had differing analytical needs and that ranged in scale from studies of an outcrop to reconnaissance surveys of an entire state or country. Initially, the intended user of the data was the original submitter or associated project personnel, and the primary means of publicly releasing data were hardcopy USGS reports, as well as professional journals. Within this paradigm, some decisions were made which have affected the completeness and accuracy of the attributes within the database.
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. In the days before map digitizing boards and GPS units were common, the determination of coordinates from field sheets was a time consuming and error prone process. In order to facilitate the analysis of samples, a decision was made to allow submitters to enter the coordinates for the lower right (southeast) corner of the submitter's working field map on which the samples could be plotted, which was most commonly a 7.5' or 15' quadrangle map. In theory, the precise coordinates for these samples would be determined and added to the database at a later date. In practice, most of these precise coordinates were used in the USGS Open-File data releases but were never entered back into the PLUTO database. Therefore, the precision of coordinates in the PLUTO database varies from "good to the nearest second of latitude or longitude" to "good to the nearest 15 minutes of latitude or longitude". 2) Geocoding: The submission of sample descriptive information (geocoding) with samples was mandatory for some fields and optional for others. Therefore, the completeness of geocoding can vary. In addition, most geocodes were not checked for completeness, accuracy, or validity during data entry into the early databases. Therefore the database contains some incorrect and invalid codes. 3) Analytical Data: The samples in this data set were chemically analyzed by a variety of techniques over a period of time from the early 1960's to the present. 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 "N" (less than the detection limit of the analytical method) or "G" (greater than the upper determination limit of the analytical method) accompanies some analytical data values. These qualifiers are defined as follows: "L" = the element was detected by the technique but at a level below the lower limit of determination for the method. The value of the lower limit of determination is given in the adjacent data field. "G" or ">" = 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. "N" = the element was not detected at concentrations above the lower limit of determination for the method. The value of the lower limit of determination is given in the adjacent data field. "<" = 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.
1) Coordinates: Most of the more recently submitted samples were located using GPS receivers. The locations determined by GPS should be accurate to the nearest latitude or longitude second. Older sample locations were determined primarily from USGS topographic maps of various scales. Sometimes these coordinates were determined directly from the original maps using a digitizing board. In other cases, a clear overlay with a coordinate grid was used to visually estimate the sample position on the map. The positional accuracy is dependent on the scale of the map from which the determination was made as well as the care taken by the individual(s) who plotted the sample or who made the coordinate determination. Unfortunately, some location coordinates were not carefully determined.
The determination of coordinates from field sheets was a time consuming and error prone process. In order to facilitate the analysis of samples, a decision was made to allow samples to be submitted to the laboratory using only the coordinates for the lower right (southeast) corner of the submitter's working field map on which the samples could be plotted, which was most commonly a 7.5' or 15' quadrangle map. In theory, the precise coordinates for these samples would be determined and added to the database at a later date. In practice, most of these more precise coordinates were used in resultant USGS Open-File data releases or publications but were never entered back into the database.
When submitters reported locations as degrees, minutes, and seconds of latitude and longitude the accuracy should be within a few seconds. When submitters only reported locations as degrees and minutes the accuracy is only to the nearest minute. When submitters only reported the corner coordinates of their field map, the accuracy is only to the nearest 7.5 or 15 minutes.
2) Datum and Earth Ellipsoid or Spheroid: When coordinates were submitted from GPS receivers or when the source of the coordinates was known, the datum and spheroid are identified in two fields that accompany the locational coordinates. For the majority of the data, these fields are empty. Since most of the older coordinate data in the database were determined from published maps, the best assumption is that the appropriate datum and spheroid is the one most commonly used for those types of maps. In the United States, most field maps were USGS topographic maps that used NAD27 (1927 North American datum) based on the Clarke 1866 ellipsoid. Using the wrong ellipsoid or datum may result in a location that is offset by up to a couple hundred feet.
Vertical positional accuracy varies highly with the depth measurement information submitted by the sample submitter and his need for vertical accuracy in his work.
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, Ga, Gd, Ge, F, Fe, Hf, Hg, Ho, I, In, Ir, K, La, Li, Lu, Mg, Mn, Mo, Na, Nb, Nd, Ni, Os, P, Pb, Pd, Pr, Pt, Rb, Re, Rh, Rn, Ru, S, Sb, Sc, Se, Si, Sm, Sn, Sr, Ta, Tb, Te, Th, Ti, Tl, Tm, U, V, W, Y, Yb, Zn, Zr, forms of carbon, forms of sulfur, forms of water, conductance, pH, density, and loss on ignition. 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:

This dataset was derived from the Alaska Geochemical Database (AGDB), which was constructed by processing a subset of the original National Geochemical Database (NGDB), adding relevant datasets that were not yet in the NGDB, checking for errors where possible, and using various selection criteria. The following criteria were chosen for selecting data for the rock data set:
Each sample must have a valid and unique lab number. Each sample must have a latitude and longitude. Each sample must be identified as geologic material (rock, sediment, soil, mineral or concentrate). Each analytical determination must be linked to a valid and unique lab number. Each analytical determination must be identified by analyte.In addition, samples that could be identified as a processed derivative of geologic material, with the exception of heavy-mineral concentrates, were removed from the data set. This included single minerals, mineral separates, rock coatings, insoluble residues, partial digestions, and leachates.
Are there legal restrictions on access or use of the data?
