Silica sand deposits in the Monrovia area, Liberia
Sam Rosenblum, S.P. Srivastava
1970, Open-File Report 70-280
Thin surficial deposits of white silica sand occupy much of the flat coastal area of Liberia from Monrovia to Buchanan 100 km southeast; most of the sand is of good quality for glass manufacture. A lagoonal mode of origin is suggested for these essentially monomineralic deposits. Based on the average...

Petrology of the Plutonic Rocks of west-central Alaska
Thomas P. Miller
1970, Open-File Report 71-210
A series of plutons in west-central Alaska defines the Hogatza plutonic belt which extends for about 200 miles in an east-west direction from the northeastern Seward Peninsula to the Koyukuk River. The plutonic rocks have an aggregate area of about 1,200 square miles and their composition, distribution, and possible petrogenesis...

Paleozoic and Precambrian rocks of Alaska and their role in its structural evolution
Michael Churkin Jr.
1970, Open-File Report 70-64
Acknowledging that there are large gaps in the knowledge of the geology of Alaska, the following threefold subdivision of Alaska into Paleozoic tectonic elements is proposed: Southern Alaska--the Alaska Range and farther south--is the northern end of the Paleozoic Cordilleran geosyncline that rims the eastern Pacific. Northern Alaska--the northeastern Brooks...
