Geochemical analyses of rock samples from the Tonsina area, Valdez Quadrangle, Alaska
Description
The State of Alaska's Strategic and Critical Minerals (SCM) Assessment project, a State-funded Capital Improvement Project, is designed to evaluate Alaska's statewide potential for SCM resources. The SCM Assessment is being implemented by the Alaska Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys (DGGS), and involves obtaining new airborne-geophysical, geological, and geochemical data throughout Alaska. In 2014 and 2015 DGGS also collected and geochemically analyzed 114 rock samples from mafic and ultramafic rocks to evaluate the Tonsina area's potential for platinum-group elements, nickel, and chromium; analytical results are presented in this report.
