    Major oxide and trace element analyses for rock samples from the Haines-Takshanuk Mountains-Chilkat Peninsula area STATEMAP project, southeast Alaska

    Metadata Updated: October 19, 2024

    Major oxide and trace element analyses for rock samples from the Haines-Takshanuk Mountains-Chilkat Peninsula area STATEMAP project, southeast Alaska, Raw Data File 2024-18, presents whole-rock and major- and trace-element geochemistry of rock samples collected to support geologic mapping in portions of the Skagway A-1, A-2, B-1, B-2, and B-3 15-minute quadrangles, an area of approximately 300 square miles. On December 2, 2020, a landslide triggered by an atmospheric river weather phenomenon at Beach Road in Haines, Alaska, claimed two lives. Numerous debris flows were also recorded around town during the same rain event, especially along Lutak Spur Road. As a response, the Haines-Takshanuk Mountains-Chilkat Peninsula area STATEMAP project's goal is to create an updated 1:50,000-scale geologic map in paper and digital GIS formats. A comprehensive, detailed map constructed using modern analytical methods is critical to help land managers and residents make informed decisions when planning future development and evaluating risks to infrastructure. During July 2022, May 2023, and August 2023, geologists from the Alaska Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys (DGGS) conducted fieldwork supporting surficial and bedrock mapping (Truskowski and others, 2024). This data file is released as a Raw Data File with an open end-user license. The data are available from the DGGS website: http://doi.org/10.14509/31286.
