Mineral resources map of the Tanacross Quadrangle, Alaska

Areas favorable for the occurrence of two types of mineral deposits are delineated on the map. Known deposits and occurrences are also shown on the map and available data on them are provided in table 1. Information from the known deposits combined with geologic, geochemical, geophysical, and earth satellite data presented in the other components of the Tanacross folio provide the basis for the selection of favorable areas. However because bedrock exposure is poor in the Tanacross quadrangle, types of deposits other than those now known to occur may eventually be found, and boundaries of the area delineated as favorable may change as more information, particularly from drilling, is obtained.
