Major-Oxide, Minor-Oxide, Trace-Element, and Geochemical Data from Rocks Collected in the Alaska Highway Corridor, Big Delta and Mount Hayes Quadrangles, Alaska in 2006 and 2007

Alaska Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys (DGGS) personnel collected rock samples while mapping the bedrock geology along a 12-mile-wide swath following the Alaska Highway between Delta Junction and the eastern edge of the Mount Hayes quadrangle near Dot Lake, Alaska. This mapping is one component of the multi-year DGGS project studying the geology, geohazards and resources along the proposed gas pipeline corridor from Delta Junction to the Canadian border. In 2006, we collected 10 samples for whole rock (major- and minor-oxides, and petrogenetically important trace-elements) analysis. In 2007, we collected 111 samples for whole rock analysis and 36 rock samples for geochemical trace-element analysis. Analytical data from these rock samples are tabulated in this publication.
