The ostracodes described in this report are from material collected in Naval Petroleum Reserve No. 4, northern Alaska. The samples were obtained from well and seismograph shot holes drilled by Arctic Contractors and United States Geophysical Company and from field samples collected by the United States Geological Survey in the period from 1945 to 1948/ The earliest samples were processed for microfossils in Washington, but most of the material was prepared in the Fairbanks Laboratory of the Geological Survey.

The shallowest of the eight holes reached 800 feet; the deepest was drilled to a depth of 1460 feet.
Geophysical data on the shallow horizons indicate that the Simpson Seeps Core Tests shown on the section have been drilled in an area of nearly north-south strike. The five core tests that most nearly approximate a section normal to the strike were chosen for the accompanying cross Section. An east-west strike, accompanied by strong anomalous dips of fifteen to twenty degrees to the north is indicated by geophysical data about five miles north of the cross section.

In addition to observation of the volcanoes, temperatures of fumaroles were measured and some products of the volcanic activity were collected and analyzed.
After an eruption in 1945, Cone A in Okmok Caldera on northeastern Umnak Island remained relatively quiet during the period 1946–1948. The fumarole gases contained water vapor, carbon dioxide, and sulfur dioxide. The incrustations associated with the sulfur dioxide fumaroles are the sulfate minerals halotrichite, gypsum, and soda alum. Temperatures of lava fumaroles at the source of the December, 1945 lava flow from Cone A dropped from an average of 320°C on July 19, 1946, to 90°C on September 5, 1946. With exception of the large central fumarole which reached red heat in 1947, the extra crater fumaroles of Cone A ranged from 96° to 98° C in temperature
Cone C, another cone in Okmok Caldera was in the solfataric stage and emitted water vapor, hydrogen sulfide, and probably carbon dioxide. Incrustations associated with fumaroles on this cone consisted of sulfur, pyrite, and aragonite. The temperatures of the fumaroles ranged from 95° to 96°C and were probably kept within this narrow range partly by the heat supplied during condensation of steam.
Sixteen large thermal springs emerging from the base of Cone D in Okmok Caldera had an aggregate discharge of approximately 115 cfs and gave off approximately 21,000 kcal of heat per second on September 7, 1946.
Water samples of thermal springs on Umnak Island contained as high as 159 ppm of boron expressed as B203 and a few parts per million of arsenic and antimony. Several of the thermal springs in southwestern Umnak Island were slightly superheated with respect to the boiling point of water and behaved as small geysers. As has been found elsewhere, the discharge, temperature, and composition of the emanations from a spring is modified by surface conditions of topography and drainage.
Thermal springs and fumaroles on Great Sitkin Island occurred at an altitude of about 2000 ft near the head of the west fork of Big Fox Creek. All the fumaroles were at or near a temperature of 100°C. The large crater fumarole in the center of the 1945 crater dome was unapproachable. No change in the activity of Great Sitkin volcano was observed between 1946 and August 1948.

Payne 1/ are used as a basis for the graphic presentation of the heavy mineral zonation. Section C-C' of Payne is not used because most of it lies outside the area treated in this report and because of new geological and geophysical interpretations in the Barrow area as the result of recent exploration. Instead, the heavy mineral zonation along a somewhat different section C-C' (see fig. 1) is discussed but not illustrated.

This fault vas discussed in E. Wiancko's report for United Geophysical Company entitled \"Report of Reflection Seismograph Survey in the Barrow Area During 1948\".
Mr. Delta. and Mr. English recently expressed a desire to know the magnitude of the calculated gravity anomaly produced by this probable fault. Their purpose was to determine the feasibility of proving and locating this fault, if exists, by several traverses with the gravimeter.
As interpreted in Wiancko's report, the fault is nearly east-west in strike and is a reverse fault with the up-thrust block on the north side.
The assumptions made for the calculation of the theoretical anomaly were that the density of the basement rock was 2.7, the density of the overlying rocks was 2.2 and the fault itself was taken directly from Plate I, Drawing No. 2044, of Wiancko's report, simplified, and reduced by a factor of 2.
The calculated anomaly is shown in Fig. 1. A polar chart similar to the type described on pages 153-154 of Heiland's \"Geophysical Exploration\" was used in computing the value of the anomaly. It was assumed that the feature is two-dimensional. Broken lines indicate values of limited accuracy. It should be mentioned here that Mr. Roland Henderson and Mr. Isidore Zietz of the Section of Geophysics of the Geological Survey carried out the calculations and plotted Fig. 1.

A report on the photogeology of the Driftwood anticline, based on available air photos, has already been distributed. The present report considers the geology of the Carbon Creek and Awuna anticlines.
The central part of the Carbon Creek anticline was studied in the field by party No. 2 during the 1949 season. A geologic report on this part of the anticline, by C. L. Whittington and Samuel A. Keller, will be distributed at the November meeting. The present photogeologic report covers the part of the Carbon Creek anticline from the western end of Whittington and Keller's area westward to the point where the Carbon Creek anticline plunges and disappears. A photogeologic map (fig. 1) accompanies this report and incorporates all available data both from the aerial photographs and from earlier field geologic studies of a part of the anticline by Thompson and Barksdale.
The Awuna anticline has been mapped in the field by C. L. Whittington. A field geologic map of the anticline will be distributed at the November meeting. The discussion on the Awuna anticline in the present report is based in part on the field observations of Whittington and in part on a new study of the aerial photographs which had previously been studied by Whittington. In reading this section on the Awuna anticline, reference should be made to Whittington's geologic map, which will be available at the November meeting.
At the present time, only trimetrogon photography is available for study of the western part of Carbon Creek and the Awuna anticline areas. Hence quantitative analysis of the structures is not possible, although rough estimates of the amount of plunge and of closures can be made. Accurate calculations of closure and plunge by photogrammetric methods must await the arrival of the vertical photographs of the area

Sadlerochit River area\" is the name that has been applied for purposes of convenience to that portion of the eastern part of the northern Alaska shown in Figure 1. The map covers an area of about 1400 square miles. The center of this map is a point approximately 55 miles southwest of Barter Island, 90 miles west of the International Boundary, and 180 miles east of Umiat.
A brief examinatin of lead-zinc occurrence at Berg Basin, Wrangell district, southeastern Alaska, was undertaken in 1947 as part of the U.S. Geological Survey's program of minerals investigations in Alaska. No lead-zinc ore body has yet been proved at Berg Basin, but because of recent interest in that area this preliminary report has been prepared for the purpose of making available immediately all data collected to date. A more complete report is in preparation.

Plans for the field season of 1947 called for geologic reconnaissance along part of the Ipnavik River and along the Colville River between the Ipnavik and Kurupa Rivers, to be completed before the end of the season. Since not much time remained and the traverse was long--about 70 airline miles--it was decided that the work would progress more rapidly if two parts of the traverse were worked at the same time. Accordingly, Robert F. Thurrell, Jr., and James H. Zumberge, geologists, were transported by plane from Umiat to the confluence of the Ipnavik and the Colville Rivers on August 8. From there they traversed down the Colville to the Kurupa River 1/.
The other two members of Party 1, Karl Stefansson, geologist, and Elder W. Lebert, cook, remained in Umiat until August 14 when a small plane was finally available to transport them to a camp on the Ipnavik River, about 30 airline miles southwest of the junction of the Ipnavik and the Colville Rivers. The party reached the Colville River on September 2, and arrived at Umiat on September 6.
