    Major-oxide, minor-oxide, and trace-element geochemical data from rocks in the Styx River area, Lime Hills C-1 Quadrangle, Lime Hills, McGrath, Talkeetna, and Tyonek quadrangles, Alaska

    Metadata Updated: July 5, 2023

    Geologists from the Alaska Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys (DGGS) Mineral Resources Section conducted four weeks of helicopter-supported mapping and fieldwork from June 26 through July 24, 2013. The Styx River project in the Lime Hills C-1 Quadrangle was part of the State-funded Airborne Geophysical/Geological Mineral Inventory (AGGMI) program as part of the State's Strategic Minerals Assessment Project, an initiative designed to evaluate Alaska's potential for rare-earth elements, PGEs, and other similarly supply-challenged resources. The Styx River project area has active and ongoing mineral exploration for deposit types including porphyry copper/molybdenum/gold, reduced intrusion-related gold, and polymetallic veins. Lead-zinc skarns, molybdenum-bearing quartz veins, sediment-hosted base-metal, platinum-group-element, and rare-earth-element deposit types are also present. This report provides new, publicly-available geological and geochemical data in the vicinity of known mineral occurrences throughout the project area. Samples were analyzed for a variety of suites of major and trace elements depending on the sample type. The analytical data tables associated with this report are being released in digital format as comma-delimited text (CSV) files.
