Description
Field station locations and magnetic susceptibility data collected in 2024 for the Chena and Steese projects, Yukon-Tanana Uplands, Alaska, Raw Data File 2025-5, provides locations, field descriptions of rocks, and magnetic susceptibility measurements from rock outcrops and/or hand samples collected during the 2024 field season for 1:100,000-scale bedrock geologic mapping of a 9,635 km2 (~3,720 mi2) area of the Yukon-Tanana Uplands of eastern Interior Alaska, including parts of the Big Delta, Circle, Fairbanks, and Livengood quadrangles. These stations are from the Chena and Steese projects. The field area for the Steese project stretches from 25 miles west of Fairbanks to 100 miles northeast of Fairbanks. Chena project stretches up to 50 miles south and east of Chena Hot Springs. These project areas include multiple current and historical mineral exploration projects and were identified by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) as prospective for rare-earth elements (REEs) and both critical and non-critical mineral resources. These data and report are available from the DGGS website: http://doi.org/10.14509/31476.
