Analyses of historic U.S. Bureau of Mines samples for geochemical trace-element and rare-earth-element data from the Circle mining district, western Crazy Mountains, and the Lime Peak area of the White Mountains, Circle Quadrangle, east-central Alaska

Description

This report and digital data release presents 286 new geochemical analyses on historic U.S. Bureau of Mines (USBM) samples, including 93 rock, 110 stream sediment, 52 soil, and 28 heavy mineral concentrate (pan concentrate) samples, as well as 3 samples of indeterminate type. These samples were originally collected as part of studies by the USBM in the Circle mining district, western Crazy Mountains, and Lime Peak area of the White Mountains, Circle Quadrangle, east-central Alaska. Historic USBM sample materials were retrieved by DGGS from the DGGS Geologic Materials Center (GMC), where the USBM samples were transferred as part of the federally funded Minerals Data and Information Rescue in Alaska (MDIRA) program in the late 1990s and early 2000s. The text and analytical data and tables associated with this report are being released in digital format as PDF files and .csv files. We provide analytical data, detection limits and, when available, the method documentation provided to us by the lab. We also provide the sample location in geographic coordinates, the sample material cited by the originating literature, a reference to the originating report, and the type of sample material that was obtained from the archive and sent to the lab.
