1967, Mineral Investigations Resource Map 51
The iron-ore deposits in the United States (exclusive of Alaska and Hawaii) are shown on the accompanying map; many iron-bearing deposits that are of lesser or only potential value are also shown. Because these deposits range widely in extent, two general categories of symbols are used, each of which is...

Effects of the earthquake of March 27, 1964, on air and water transport, communications, and utilities systems in south-central Alaska
Edwin B. Eckel
1967, Professional Paper 545-B
The earthquake of March 27, 1964, wrecked or severely hampered all forms of transportation, all utilities, and all communications systems over a very large part of south-central Alaska. Effects on air transportation were minor as compared to those on the water, highway, and railroad transport systems. A few planes were...

Surface faults on Montague Island associated with the 1964 Alaska earthquake
George Plafter
1967, Professional Paper 543-G
Two reverse faults on southwestern Montague Island in Prince William Sound were reactivated during the earthquake of March 27, 1964. New fault scarps, fissures, cracks, and flexures appeared in bedrock and unconsolidated surficial deposits along or near the fault traces. Average strike of the faults is between N. 37° E....

Devonian rocks of the Yukon-Porcupine Rivers area and their tectonic relation to other Devonian sequences in Alaska
Michael Churkin Jr., Earl E. Brabb
1967, Conference Paper, International Symposium of the Devonian system: Papers
Devonian rocks along the Yukon River near the Alaska-Yukon boundary comprise 250 feet of limestone and shale and 800 feet of chert and siliceous shale, all referred to the McCann Hill Chert of Early to Late Devonian age; about 3,000 feet of non-marine chert-pebble conglomerate, graywacke, and shale of...
Viscosity and finite strength of the mantle as determined from water and ice loads
Max D. Crittenden Jr.
1967, Geophysical Journal International (14) 261-279
Some recent examples of transient Earth loads (Lake Bonneville, Utah; Glacier Bay, Alaska; northeast Greenland) indicate that both the viscosity and finite strength of the mantle are lower than is commonly presumed. A time constant (1/e) of 4000 years is estimated for Lake Bonneville, and of 1000 years for...
Post-paleozoic radiometric ages and their relevance to fault movements, Northern Southeastern Alaska
R. A. Loney, David A. Brew, Marvin A. Lanphere
1967, GSA Bulletin (78) 511-526
Recently determined lead-alpha and potassium-argon ages from northern southeastern Alaska indicate major plutonic events in the Paleozoic, Mesozoic, and Tertiary; in contrast, previous studies suggested that only one complex Jurassic and Cretaceous event occurred. The ages presented in this paper indicate the following Mesozoic and Tertiary plutonic events: Middle or...
