Geologic Map of Alaska

Abstract

This map and its associated digital databases are the result of compilation and reinterpretation of published and unpublished 1:250,000-scale and limited 1:500,000- to 1:63,360-scale mapping. Covering the entire state of Alaska, it reflects more than a century of work in the State by a host of geologists and almost two decades of compilation work. There are two versions of this map: a complete, detailed map found in the digital database, and a simplified, "generalized" map for print. Units descirbed here are included in the detailed digital map. At the end of each unit description, we indicate to which generalized map unit it is assigned on the print map . . .
