Petroleum Geology of the Northern Part of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, Northeastern Alaska

The following publication presents the results of a multifaceted study of the geology of the coastal plain and adjacent areas of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR) of northeastern Alaska and estimates of its yet to be discovered oil and gas resources. This report provides technical geologic and assessment details not found in the congressional report on the ANWR 1002 area (Clough and others, 1987).

Report on Progress of Investigations of Mineral Resources of Alaska in 1904 (open access)

Report on Progress of Investigations of Mineral Resources of Alaska in 1904

From letter of transmittal: The report contains fourteen papers, prepared by ten members of the geologic corps, who have been engaged in Alaskan investigations during the last year. In this report an attempt has been made to summarize the economic results of last season's field work. Geologic matter has been entirely excluded, except where it has a direct bearing on the subjects under discussion. While such a report can have no permanent value, other than as a record of mining conditions during the year, it is believed that its prompt publication will help the mining industry of Alaska.

Chromite Deposits of Red Bluff Bay and Vicinity, Baranof Island, Alaska

From introduction: The Red Bluff Bay area was examined briefly for the Geological Survey by John C. Reed and others in 1939. During the summer of 1941 the writers, with R. E. L. Rutledge, mapped this area on a scale of 1:12,000, and examined the serpentine masses in the interior during the course of reconnaissance trips into the surrounding region.

Mineral Industry of Alaska in 1935 (open access)

Mineral Industry of Alaska in 1935

From introduction: The record of the Alaska mineral industry for 1935, here presented, is supplemented by records for earlier years, because in that way certain trends may be recognized which are not only of historical significance but are also useful in suggesting the course that the industry is likely to take in the future. This is a continuing service that has been rendered by the Geological Survey from almost the earliest years of active mining in Alaska, and the present report is the thirty-second of the series.

Lode Deposits of the Fairbanks District, Alaska (open access)

Lode Deposits of the Fairbanks District, Alaska

From abstract: To help the mining industry of Alaska and to assist in the development of the mineral resources of the Territory have been the prime motives of the Geological Survey's investigations in Alaska during the past 35 years, in which nearly one half of the Territory has been covered by its reconnaissance and exploratory surveys. It was natural, therefore, that the Alaska Railroad, when it undertook intensive consideration of the problem of finding tonnage that would increase its revenues, should look to the Geological Survey to supply technical information as to the known mineral deposits along its route and to indicate what might be done to stimulate a larger production of minerals and induce further mining developments and prospecting that would utilize its service.
