Geological Survey and selected U.S. Bureau of Mines and Alaska Division of Geological and Geophysical Surveys reports and maps on Alaska released during 1974, indexed by quadrangle

All Geological Survey reports and maps on Alaska published or released to open files during 1974 are listed by the quadrangle (scale 1:250,000) into which Alaska has been divided for topographic mapping (p. 2). Also listed are U.S. Bureau of Mines reports on the geology and mineral resources of Alaska, but not those dealing exclusively with other subjects such as economics. Alaska Division of Geological and Geophysical Surveys published reports on geology and mineral resources are listed, but those released to open files are not. This is because all open-file reports and maps were withdrawn in 1974 for revision, consolidation, or assignment of new identification numbers before possible reissue. At the time of preparation of this index I had received so few newly released open-file reports that I felt that including any of them might cause confusion to potential users because of possible duplication of titles or numbers.
