Carborne radiometric survey of the Nome area, Seward Peninsula, Alaska
Robert A. Brooks, Warren Irvin Finch
1977, Open-File Report 77-472
A carborne radiometric survey was made along the accessible roads in the Nome, Alaska, area. The background radiation was generally found to be low, about 40 cps, but higher radioactivity near granite was noted. No radioactive anomalies of a magnitude greater than three times the average background were encountered....

Lower Cook Inlet is located in south-central Alaska between lat 58°45' and 60°30' N. and between long 151° and 154° W. (fig. 1). Geographic features on the perimeter of the area are the Aleutian Range on the northwest, Kalgin Island on the northeast, the Kenai Peninsula on the east, the...
Reconnaissance engineering geology of the Metlakatla area, Annette Island, Alaska, with emphasis on evaluation of earthquakes and other geologic hazards
Lynn A. Yehle
1977, Open-File Report 77-272
A program to study the engineering geology of most larger Alaska coastal communities and to evaluate their earthquake and other geologic hazards was started following the 1964 Alaska earthquake; this report about the Metlakatla area, Annette Island, is a product of that program. Field-study methods were of a reconnaissance nature,...
The Alaskan Mineral Resource Assessment Program; background information to accompany folio of geologic and mineral resource maps of the McCarthy Quadrangle, Alaska
E. M. MacKevett, N. R. D. Albert, D.F. Barnes, J. E. Case, Keith Robinson, D.A. Singer
1977, Circular 739
The McCarthy 1? by 3? quadrangle, in eastern south-central Alaska, contains potentially significant resources of copper and possibly of a few other commodities. This circular and a companion folio of maps represent results of integrated field and laboratory studies in the disciplines of geology, geophysics, geochemistry, and satellite imagery that...

Chemical composition of Precambrian, Paleozoic, Mesozoic and Tertiary rocks from east-central Alaska
Earl E. Brabb, Bette R. Hamachi
1977, Open-File Report 77-631
The purpose of this report is to make available 108 analyses of a variety of igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic rocks from east-central Alaska. The rocks were collected by the senior author, Michael Churkin, Jr., G. Donald Eberlein, Reuben J. Ross, Jr., and James Melik from 1960 to 1963....

1977, Open-File Report 77-404
The seismograph stations listed in this catalog were established over the period January 1964 through June 1976 in support of the Energy Research and Development Administration, Nevada (ERDA/NV) underground weapons testing program at the Nevada Test Site (NTS), central Nevada, and Amchitka, Alaska. For station listings before 1964 see Coast...
Aquatic organisms from selected sites along the Trans-Alaska Pipeline corridor, September 1970 to September 1972: supplement
Jon W. Nauman, Donald R. Kernodle
1977, Open-File Report 77-634
This report is a supplement to earlier preconstruction studies of benthic invertebrates and water quality at selected sites along the trans-Alaska pipeline corridor. Some of the problems which arose during the course of data collection and analysis are discussed. Benthic invertebrate abundance and community-structure data are presented for 20 sites...

Radioelement concentrations and preliminary radiometric ages of rocks of the Kigluaik Mountains, Seward Peninsula, Alaska

1977, Open-File Report 77-735
A sequence of old metamorphic rocks including the Kigluaik and Nome Groups is exposed in the Kigluaik Mountains of the Seward Peninsula. The high-grade metasedimentary rocks give a whole-rock Rb-Sr age of 735 m.y. This late Precambrian age is believed to be the time of metamorphism. Orthogneisses, intrusive into the...

The Triassic Chitistone Limestone, Wrangell Mountains, Alaska: stressing detailed descriptions of sabkha facies and other rocks in lower parts of the Chitistone and their relations to Kennecott-type copper deposits
Augustus K. Armstrong, E. M. MacKevett
1977, Open-File Report 77-217
Recent investigations show that sabkha deposits were important in the genesis of Kennecott-type copper ore. Massive chalcocite-rich lodes at Kennecott and nearby deposits formed in the lower 110 meters of the Upper Triassic Chitistone Limestone. The Chitistone and superimposed Upper Triassic and Jurassic sedimentary rocks formed in a marine basin...
