Darby Mountain outcrop of quartz monzonite towards the contact between the pluton and Paleozoic marbles

Alaska Technical Data Unit - Field Records Archives

This project is designed to collect, inventory, preserve, and make available the records of USGS geologic and minerals work in Alaska. Materials are organized in two broad categories of records: (1) Project History files, which contain field notes, maps, and fossil reports; and (2) Geologic Subject files, containing unpublished materials, correspondence, and the Economic Minerals files.

Uranium-Lead Ages, Hafnium Isotope Ratios, and Trace Element Concentrations by Laser-Ablation Split Stream (LASS) Analysis of Igneous Zircons from the Darby Mountains Area, Seward Peninsula, Alaska

This data set contains uranium-lead (U-Pb) isotopic data and ages, hafnium (Hf) isotope data, and trace element concentrations of zircon from igneous rocks collected from the Darby Mountains area of the Seward Peninsula, Alaska. The sample suite was collected as part of geological mapping and supporting geochemical and geochronological analysis conducted in 2017. The data tables accompanying this

Juvenile continental crust evolution in a modern oceanic arc setting: Petrogenesis of Cenozoic felsic plutons in Fiji, SW Pacific

Viti Levu, Fiji, provides one of the best exposed Phanerozoic analogues for the formation of juvenile continental crust in an intra-oceanic setting. Tonalites and trondhjemites are present in several large (75–150 km2) adjacent, mid-Cenozoic plutons. We report major and trace element data including rare earth element (REE) and high-precision high field strength element (HFSE) compositions, new Hf-

Ar-Ar age constraints on the timing of Havre Trough opening and magmatism

The age and style of opening of the Havre Trough back-arc system is uncertain due to a lack of geochronologic constraints for the region. 40Ar/39Ar dating of 19 volcanic rocks from across the southern Havre Trough and Kermadec Arc was conducted in three laboratories to provide age constraints on the system. The results are integrated and interpreted as suggesting that this subduction system is you
