Geology of two areas of pegmatite deposits in southeastern Alaska
C.L. Sainsbury
1955, Open-File Report 55-159
A pegmatite deposit about 600 feet in diameter crops on a high bluff less than one-half mile east of a small unnamed cove between Redfish and Byron Bays, on the west coast of Baranof Island, southeastern Alaska.The deposit which comprises several pegmatite bodies consists of quartz, albite-oligoclase, microcline and mica,...
Geochemical exploration for antimony in southeastern Alaska
C.L. Sainsbury
1955, Open-File Report 55-158
Preliminary geochemical prospecting by the Geological Survey was carried out in 1952 in muskeg-covered ground at Caamano Point, Cleveland Peninsula, Alaska, in an effort to delimit areas of stibnite concentrations. It was conducted to aid, if possible, a prospecting project of the Defense Minerals Exploration. Samples were collected from soil...
Fitting curves to cyclic data
W. B. Langbein
1955, Open-File Report 55-91
A common problem in hydrology is to fit a smooth curve to cyclic or periodic data, either to define the most probable values of the data or to test some principle that one wishes to demonstrate. This study treats of those problems where the length or period of the cycle...
Gravel and sand resources of the New England-New York region
Louis W. Currier
1955, Open-File Report 55-33
Deposits of sand and gravel are widespread in the New England-New York regions and constitute one of its principal mineral resources. Most of the pits are operated intermittently to supply local needs. Because of the great number and variety of known deposits, and because they have been worked at countless...
Ore deposits on northwestern Chichagof Island, Alaska
Darwin L. Rossman
1955, Open-File Report 55-154
The area mapped includes most of northwestern Chichagof Island. The work, started in 1946, is a continuation of the geologic mapping done in the adjoining Chichagof mining district by Reed and Coats. The gold-bearing zone recognized by these writers continues through the area mapped by the writer to the northern...
Occurrence of diatomaceous earth near Kenai, Alaska
George Plafker
1955, Open-File Report 55-139
Diatomaceous earth occurs in post-glacial lake deposits exposed along the shore of Cook Inlet north of the village of Kenai, Alaska. Diatomaceous earth is an unconsolidated earthy deposit formed by accumulation of the minute siliceous tests (skeletons) of diatoms, a type of algae. Diatomaceous earth is sometimes referred to...
Preliminary report on the potential waterpower of Grant, Ptarmigan, Cooper and Crescent lakes on the Kenai Peninsula, near Seward, Alaska
Arthur Johnson
1955, Open-File Report 55-74
Grant, Ptarmigan, Cooper, and Crescent Lakes, located in the Kenai Mountains in the upper portion of the Kenai River Basin, approximately 25 miles to the north of Seward, present favorable opportunities for the development of waterpower. Grant and Ptarmigan Lakes can be made readily accessible by roads from the Seward-Anchorage...

This report gives the results of geologic investigations in the Yakataga district on the south coast of Alaska, including detailed geologic mapping in the southeastern part of the Robinson Mountains, and reconnaissance study of the stratigraphy and structure of adjoining areas. The geologic map that accompanies this report covers an...
Geology of waterpower sites on Scenery Creek, Cascade Creek, and Delta Creek near Petersburg, Alaska
John Charles Miller
1955, Open-File Report 55-115
Dam sites were examined at the outlets of Scenery Lake, Swan Lake, and Ruth Lake which are located on Scenery Creek, Cascade Creek, and Delta Creek, respectively. The Scenery Lake dam site is partly in quartz diorite and partly in hornblende plagioclase gneiss. The Swan Lake and Ruth Lake dam...

Phosphate deposits in northern Alaska
William Wallace Patton Jr.
1955, Open-File Report 55-132
Deposits of low and medium grade phosphate rock were found recently at seven localities on the Arctic slope of Alaska. They were reported by field parties of the U.S. Geological Survey during the mapping of Naval Petroleum Reserve No. 4 and adjacent areas. The deposits are sedimentary in origin and...
