    Geochemical, major-oxide, minor-oxide, trace-element, carbon, and rare-earth-element data from rocks collected in 2011 in the Moran area, Tanana and Melozitna Quadrangles, Alaska

    Metadata Updated: July 5, 2023

    Mineral-resources personnel from the Alaska Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys carried out a geologic field survey, including mapping and sampling in the Moran area in the Tanana A-6 and B-6 quadrangles, and the Melozitna A-1, A-2, B-1, and B-2 quadrangles, Alaska, from June 17 to August 15, 2011. The fieldwork provides basic information critical to building an understanding of Alaska’s geology and is part of an integrated program of airborne geophysical surveys followed by geologic mapping. During 2011, 212 rock samples were collected for geochemical trace-element analysis (tables 1–3), 58 rock samples were collected for whole-rock (major- and minor-oxide and petrogenetically important trace elements) analyses, two samples were collected for analysis of non-carbonate carbon content, 439 polished rock slabs were analyzed for whole rock and petrogenetically important trace elements, and 26 samples were analyzed for rare earth elements.
