Major-oxide, minor-oxide, and trace-element geochemical data from rocks collected in the Alaska Highway corridor, Mount Hayes, Tanacross, and Nabesna quadrangles, Alaska, in 2006, 2008, 2009, and 2010

Metadata Updated: July 5, 2023

Geologists from the Alaska Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys (DGGS) and the University of Alaska Fairbanks (UAF) carried out geologic field surveys, including bedrock mapping and sampling, in the Alaska Highway Corridor from 2006 through 2010. The fieldwork provides basic information critical to building an understanding of Alaska's geology and is part of a broader, integrated program that includes airborne geophysical surveys, bedrock and surficial mapping, a mineral-resource assessment, a geologic-hazards assessment, and other geological studies. This publication contains descriptive, location, and analytical information for samples collected in the Mount Hayes, Tanacross, and Nabesna quadrangles, Alaska, in the summers of 2006, 2008, 2009, and 2010. Additional analytical data for samples collected in the Mount Hayes Quadrangle in the summers of 2006 and 2007 were published in a separate report. During the field seasons covered by this report, rock samples were collected for geochemical trace-element and whole-rock (major- and minor-oxide and petrogenetically important trace-element) analyses. Rock sample location coordinates are presented in decimal degree latitude and longitude based on the North American Datum of 1927 (NAD 27) for Alaska. Brief sample descriptions are based principally on field observations with some thin-section details added.
