Geology of the southeastern part of the Robinson Mountains, Yakataga district, Alaska
Don John Miller
1955, Open-File Report 55-114
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...
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...
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...
Photogeologic procedures in geologic interpretation and mapping
Richard G. Ray
1955, Open-File Report 55-144
In the past few years increasing use has been made of aerial photographs for geologic interpretation and mapping within the U.S. Geological Survey. As a specialized technique in interpretation and mapping, however, photogeologic procedures were extensively used (1947-1953) in the Survey's geologic mapping of Naval Petroleum Reserve No. 4 in...
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...
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...
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,...
Pyrite deposits at Horseshoe Bay, Latouche Island, Alaska
Francis Adrien Stejer
1955, Open-File Report 55-175
Horseshoe Bay (see fig. 1) is in the southwest part of Prince William Sound at latitude 60°01'N and longitude 147°57'W. It is on the west side of Latouche Island about two miles southwest of the old mining camp of Latouche. Pyrite deposits crop out about one-half mile from the head...
Preliminary geologic evaluation of the Chena area, Alaska
John R. Williams
1955, Open-File Report 55-198
It seems fitting at this session of the Alaska Science Conference, the first to be held in the Fairbanks area, to give a preliminary summary of the practical results of a geologic investigation of the Chena area east of Fairbanks. The work was done by the Geological Survey in 1950....
Notes on a coal deposit on the Beluga River, Alaska
Farrell F. Barnes
1955, Open-File Report 55-5
This report is based on a brief examination of a locality on the Beluga River, about 50 miles west of Anchorage, Alaska (fig. 1), that had been reported to contain a coal bed of exceptional thickness and quality, possibly suitable for large-scale strip mining. I visited the locality on August...
