Abstract

Analytical data for 31 rock and 33 stream-sediment samples from the Sumdum C-4 , 1:63,360 scale quadrangle are presented in this report, together with a statistical treatment of the data. The samples were collected in 1969 as part of the Heavy Metals Program of the U.S. Geological Survey.

The most comprehensive discussion of the geology of the study area is a report by A. F. Buddington and Theodore Chapin (1929). Known metalliferous lodes of the area are described and additional references to specific areas are given by Berg and Cobb (1967). Additional data is given in reports by Herbert and Race (1964) and Alaska Department of Mines (1950). Supplemental publications are being prepared on the general geology and mineral occurrences of the study area.
