Cenozoic Highly Evolved Rhyolites of the Western Cordillera of the Conterminous United States Cenozoic Highly Evolved Rhyolites of the Western Cordillera of the Conterminous United States

The use of data analytics and digital mineral prospectivity mapping has become increasingly important to mineral resource assessment in recent years. Necessary information for many forms of such modeling are expert-validated training sets. Previous work defined occurrence and grade and tonnage models for Climax-type porphyry molybdenum deposits (Singer and others, 1986; Ludington and...

Ground-based lidar data of the southeast face of El Capitan, Yosemite National Park, California, May 4, 2022 Ground-based lidar data of the southeast face of El Capitan, Yosemite National Park, California, May 4, 2022

We collected two ground-based (terrestrial) lidar scans of the southeast face of El Capitan cliff, located in Yosemite National Park, California. El Capitan is one of several iconic granitic cliffs in Yosemite and rises approximately 1000 meters above the floor of Yosemite Valley. The scans were collected from the same location and from a single vantage point on the edge of El Capitan...

Database for the "Timing of dike and sill emplacement in the inner aureole of the Alta stock, Utah determined by zircon and monazite petrochronology" Database for the "Timing of dike and sill emplacement in the inner aureole of the Alta stock, Utah determined by zircon and monazite petrochronology"

Contained within this data release are the raw geochemical and isotopic data collected from analyzed zircon and monazite crystals as part of the Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems publication "Timing of dike and sill emplacement in the inner aureole of the Alta stock, Utah determined by zircon and monazite petrochronology." Table 1 contains all of the monazite geochemical data while...

Geophysical data and grids of the Grouse Creek and Utah part of the Jackpot 30' x 60' quadrangles, Utah Geophysical data and grids of the Grouse Creek and Utah part of the Jackpot 30' x 60' quadrangles, Utah

New geophysical data, including density and magnetic susceptibility measurements, were collected in the Grouse Creek and Utah part of the Jackpot 30' x 60' quadrangles in Box Elder County, Utah and Cassia County, Idaho. The release contains 324 new gravity measurements merged with a 2013 compilation. These data were inverted for basin thickness and basement density variations. The...

Depth predictions of chemical geothermometers estimated using a three-dimensonal temperature model in the Great Basin, USA Depth predictions of chemical geothermometers estimated using a three-dimensonal temperature model in the Great Basin, USA

Recent work in the Great Basin region of the western United States has made it possible to predict the depth of hydrothermal reservoirs (i.e., the depth at which heat is accumulated prior to ascent via hydrothermal upflow) identified through geochemistry and to contextualize the spatial patterns of these reservoir depths. Chemical geothermometers use the chemical and mineral constituents...

Aeromagnetic and gravity surveys of the Skaergaard intrusion in East Greenland, 1971 Aeromagnetic and gravity surveys of the Skaergaard intrusion in East Greenland, 1971

Aeromagnetic and gravity surveys of the Skaergaard intrusion in East Greenland were carried out in July–August 1971 as part of a grant to the University of Oregon Center for Volcanology to further study the intrusion to refine the models of crystallization of the body. The total-intensity aeromagnetic survey was flown in early July 1971 at constant barometric altitude of 1.5 km (5000 ft)...

Assessment of natural reference materials for U-Pb geochronology of grossular-andradite garnet Assessment of natural reference materials for U-Pb geochronology of grossular-andradite garnet

Geochemical and isotopic data from the manuscript "Assessment of natural reference materials for U-Pb geochronology of grossular-andradite garnet" published in Geostandards and Geoanalytical Research. Table 1 is a summary of major and trace element geochemical characteristics of the three reference materials investigated in this study. Table 2 and Table 3 show the results of ID-TIMS...

Data Supporting Mobile Wind Measurements Using a Joust Configured Ultrasonic Anemometer Onboard a Multi-rotor sUAS Data Supporting Mobile Wind Measurements Using a Joust Configured Ultrasonic Anemometer Onboard a Multi-rotor sUAS

These data were collected to investigate how well wind speed and direction can be measured using a miniature sonic anemometer mounted in a joust configuration on a small uncrewed aircraft system (sUAS). Test flights occurred at a bog within Interior Alaska that was instrumented with an eddy covariance flux tower. Part of the tower's instrumentation was a highly accurate sonic anemometer...

Microfossil Samples from the East Pisco Basin, southern Peru Microfossil Samples from the East Pisco Basin, southern Peru

The East Pisco Basin is one of several forearc basins situated on the coastal plain of Peru between the Andean Cordillera and Peru-Chile Trench. During the Cenozoic, successive marine transgressions across the East Pisco Basin deposited sequences of Paleogene and Neogene age. Biochronologic studies suggest that a hiatus of approximately 12 million years (~32-20 Ma) separates the youngest...

These data include individual zip files which contain TIFF (Tagged Image File Format) images of graphic drill core logs showing associated drill core information, a TIFF image of the explanation for the lithology and structure sections of the logs, Esri shapefiles of the locations of the drill hole collars, and .csv files of tabular data that were compiled from handwritten drill core...

Georectified mosaic of historical aerial photographs of the Colorado River in Mohave Valley, Arizona, California, and Nevada, acquired in 1938 Georectified mosaic of historical aerial photographs of the Colorado River in Mohave Valley, Arizona, California, and Nevada, acquired in 1938

This product is a georectified and tonally balanced mosaic of aerial photographs collected in 1938 by the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation along the floodplain of the Colorado River in Mohave Valley region of Arizona, California and Nevada. This dataset is a primary resource for the development of a geologic map showing the floodplain and river channel characteristics along the Colorado River...
