Reco~a~.ssance gemdcgic map and geochemical analyses . of stream sediment and rock samples of the

Anchorage B-7 quadrangle, Alaska

by Sandra A. B. Clark and Susan R. Bartsch

I Introduction I

A reconnaissance geologic map and analytical data for 56 stream-

sediment samples and a4 rock samples from the ~nchdra~e B-7, 1:63,360-scale I

quadrangle are presented in this report, together with a statistical

treatoleat af the geochemical data. The bedrock was mapped and the samples

were collected in 1969 aad 1970 as part of a continuing U.S. Gcological

Survey project to map basement rocks in the western Chugach Mountains.

Most of the eaxly work on the bedrock geology of the Anchorage '8-7

quadrangle and the surro~ding areas was by S. R. Capps (1916 and 1940),

More recently, chrkte-bearing ultramafic rocks in the northeast part' of the

quadrangle and the adjacent part of the Anchorage B-6 quadrangle were mapped

and described by A, W, Rose (1966). Other studies of the chromite-bearing

ultramafic rocks and studies of the adjacent areas that wexe made as the

result of construction of a tunnel and dam as part of a hydroelectric power

development program by the City of Anchorage are summarized by Rose (1966).

The geology and geochemistry of the adjoining Anchorage B-6 quadrangle was

described by Clark and Bartsch (19,71), Ernest Dobrovolny and H:R. Schmoll

of the U.S. Geological Survey are currently mapping the surficial deposits

of the Anchorage Borough, including those in the Anchorage B-7 quadrangle.

In this report no attempt was made to differentiate units within the

surficial deposits. The contacts between bedrock and surficial deposits in

.Allen L. Clark and Ivan Barnes of the U.S. Geological Survey each spent 4

approximately a week helping with geologic mapping and sampling in the

Anchorage B-6 and B-7 quadrangles. David L. Jones and Arthur Grantz of

the U.S. Geological Survey generously shared information and ideas on

geologic interpretation of the units.

Map -its

The age assi&arnents of units in figure 1 aie based on sparse

paleontoPogica1 data and two R-Ar age determinations. The information is

partly from the Anchorage B-7 quadrangle and partly from adjacent areas.

The undifferentiated unit (JPu) includes a variety of plutonic, metaplutonic,

metasedimentary and metavolcanic rocks that crop out near the northwestern

front of the Chugach Mountains. The plutonic and metaplutonic rocks have

compositions ranging from gabbro to quartz diorite. Gxaeissesl and schists I .

have well-developed echistosity and greenschist facies metamorphic

assemblages, sometimes overprinted by prehnf te-pumpellyite f acies minerals.

Ifetasedimentary rocks are generally fine grained and include ineragraywastes ,

sfficeous argillftes, cherts, and marbles. Some metabasalts also oecux in

the unit, The rocks included in the undifferentiated unit differ from the

heterogeneous assemblage (JKa) primarily in the presence of plutonic and

metaplutonic rocks and of gneisses and schists with well-developed

schistosity,and greenschist facies mineral assemblages. The relations of the

different types of rocks in the undifferentiated unit to each other are

obscure because of the lack of continuity of bedrock and the probability

of complex faulting in the area near the range front,

* .. . Ages have been,determined at two localities in the unit of

undifferentiated rocks: krsulinids found in'marble a few hundred feet

from the west contact of 'the ultramafie rocks (fossil locality 1, fig. 1)

were described by Raymond C. Douglaas of the U.S. Geological Survey as

follows (writ ten commuaication, 1971) :

"This sample contains fractured, def omed, and partly secrys tallized specimens of at least twa kinds of fw ulinfds. One is a form of schwagerinid that m y represent Schwagerina sp., Chusenella sp., or Parafusuliaa sp. The possibility that all three are represented cannot

- A be ruled out thus far. The second form is Cancellina sp., a neocchwagerinid,"

"Cancellina is a genus recognized in several places within the Permian Tethyan seaway. This is the first known occurrence of a neoschwagerinid in Alaska, and this is only the third place in the western hemisphere where Cancellina has been recognized."

"Cancellina is considered to be of late Leonardian age but may extend into earliest Guaddupien. At the moment, I would favor a Leonardian age for the Alaskan sample. I' I

"Tomowo Ozawa has recently (1910) summarized the group to which Cancellina is assigned and he concLuded .that Cancellins developed in relatively calm .. waters characteris~tically in the micritic facies. Recrystallization in. this sample has destroyed m ~ s t of the lithologic evidence, but remnants of echinodermal material can be recognized in what may have been a micritic groundmass.

Slightly chloritized biotite from quartz diorite (K-Ar locality 1,

fig. 1) collected by Manrin Laaphere and Arthur Grantz pf the U.S. Geological

Survey was dared with K-Ar metRod by Lanphere at' 161 + 5 m.y. (oral

communication, 197f),

Because a wide variety of rock types are included in the undifferentiited

I unit, it is possible that rocks of ages other than Permian to Jurassic are

included also.

The heterogeneous assemblage (JKa) crops out in the Anchorage B-7

quadrangle mostly in a fault-bounded northeast-trending belt in the central

pare of the quadrangle. The unit is composed predominantly of massive

metaclastic rocks that include weakly metamorphosed graywacke, arkose, and

conglomerate sandstone. The unit also includes greenstones of basaltic I

composition (including pillow lavas) that are usually associated with

radiolaxian chert, cherty argillite, and argillite. Small amounts of

drramafic rocks and marble occur in this unit in the adjacent Anchorage

A-7 quadrangle. The radiolerian chert-pillow basalt associati on is interpreted, 1

to indicate a marine environment: of deposition. The deformation of the . i heterogeneous assemblage is characterized by pervasive closely spaced

shears. The attitudes of locally prombent sets of shears in thia unit

are shown by a cleavage symbol in figure 1. Tight folds are present rarely.

The shearing and-lenticular remuante of beds commonly seen in the

cherty argillite' sequences, as well as lack of persistence of distinctive I lithologic sequences from one ridge to the next (fig. 1) suggests a rnhlange-

like style deformation. Attitudes of bedding and shears show large local

0 variations, but the pattern is not random,and a general northwest dip can

be discerned. Prehnite and pumpellyite are widespread in thia unit. I

Prehnite in veidets, usually associated with quartz, is commonly visible in I

hand specimens and characteristic of the unit. 1 I

The maximum age of the heterogeneous assemblage is indicated by a K-Ar

date of 146 - + 7 m.y. on hornblende from a granitic cobble in a conglomeratic

sandstone near the Seward Highway in the Anchorage A-8 quadrangle (Marvin

Lanphere and Arthur Grantz, U.S. Geological Survey, oral communication',

1969). The minimum age of the unit is limited by the beginning of

accumulation of the wnetamorphosed Tertiary non-marine sediments in the Cook

Inlet region.

Metagraywacke, siltite, argillite, and calcareous sandstones tentatively

correlated with the Valdez Group (KJV) crop out in the southeast part of

'the quadrangle below the heterogeneous assemblage. The rocks are part of

a widespread thick marine flysch sequence that in some areas contains

sedimentary features that are generally associated with turbiditea. Fossils

are very scarce in the flyach deposits, and none have been found in the

Anchorage B-7 quadxangle. Worm trails and plant fragments have been found

in the adlacent Anchorage B-6 quadrangle (Clark and Bartsch, 1971) and

Inoceramus fossils of Jurassic or Cretaceous age have been found in several

localities (Plafkee and MacNeil, 1966, p. B63; Park, 1931, p. 393) in the western

Chugach Mountains. Fossils from a newly discovered locality in the flysch .. I

negr Mile 100 of the Seward Highway (Seward D-7 quadranglej'"'are similar I

to the Upper Crs taceous (Maes trichtisn) Iaoceramus kusiroensis (David L . Jones, U.S. Geological Survey, written comunication, 1970).

Sparsity of fossils and absence of shallciw-water features suggest that

the flysch represents a moderate to deep water deposit.

Deformation in the flysch is characterized by tight similar folds with

slaty cleavage and numerous high- and low-angle faults.

mite mica, chlorite, epidote, and albite are widespread in the unit.

Micaceous minerals commonly show a distinct metamorphic fabric, but detrital

textures are still discexnible.

The non-marine Kenai Formation (Tk) consisting predominantly of

sandstone, siltstanq, ana claystone is exposed in only a few small areas

near Eagle River (fig. 1). Fossil plants from the Kenai Formation near

Stage, which ia considered to be of late Oligocene age (Wahrhaftig and

others, 1969, p. I)-9 to D-11) . The surffcial deposits include a variety of glacial and alluvial

deposits that are being mapped and described by Ernest Dobrovolny and R. R.

Schmoll.

Igneous rocks in the q.uadrangle include quartz diorites to gabbtos in

the h d i f ferentiated assemblage described above, protrusive ultramsf ic

rocka, and felsic to intermediate hypabyssal rocks.

The ultramafic rocks $Pp) are exposed in a linear belt near the

northwest part of the quadrangle between the undifferentiated rocka and

' the bet erogeneous a~eemblaja. The body is a weakly serpent inired layered

protrusion composed predominantly of peridotite (wehrlice), dunite, and

pgroxenite. Clinopyrsxene is the predominant pyroxene in the body,

Small amounts of gabbro occur locally. No contact metamorphism was noted

in the vicinity of the ultramafic body. A detailed map of the ultramafic

body by Rose (1966) shows the distribution of the rock types

in the ultramafic. Rose (1966) noted a similarity in appearance of

clinopyroxenes in the ultramafic rocks and in the strongly altered gabbros

that crop out northwest of the ultranafic body near Mo&t Eklufna and on the

ridge between Thunder Bird Creek and the Eklutna River. Rose (1966)

considered the gabbros to be a part of the ultramafic body, On figure 1 of

this report the gabbros near the ultramafic rocks are included with other

assemblage except as clasbs in metaconglomerate sandstones.

The approximate location of the juxtaposition of the two terranee--

the c o n t i ~ a l undifferentiated unit and the oceanic heterogeneous

assemblage--is marked by the ultramafie body in the northeast part of

the qrudrmgle (unit %PZu). In other places the position of the contact

between the two units is obscured by intense shearing and recrystallization

of roch in both units aa well as lack of exposure in critical areas..

Metallic miaeral occurrences

No meallfc mineral production has been reported from the Ancharage

B-7 quadrangle, but three occurrences are known.

A. W. Rosc (1966) described chromite-rich bands in durulte at two

localities; one on the ridge between Thunder Bird Crkek and Eklutna River,

and the second on the west slope of Morrat Elclutaa (fig. 2). According to ' . , I 1

Rose (%966) , the known chroaclte occurrences are of low grade and -11 size.

- Landes (1927, p. 71) described a lead-zinc preapect located "...at an

elevation of 1,500 feet in a slight draw in the face of the cliff between

EErlutaa and Petets Creeks." The approximate location is shown on figure 2.

Acc~rding to Landes (1927) the country rock is impregnated through a zone

about three feet wide with arsenopyrite , pyrite, sphalerf te, and galena.

A vein less than 2 inches wide contains sphalerite, galena, and chalcopyrite.

Landes (1927) did not think eufficient base-metal minerals were exposed to

encourage development work.

Data on stream sedimeut and rock samples

Standard procedures were followed in the.collection and prepaxation

of samples. Outcrop mmples were chosen for anilysis to provide data on

background or because they were strongly iron atained or contained visible

sulfidae, Descriptions of analyzed rock specimens are given in Table 1.

Stream-sediment earuplee of fine-grained material were generally

collected from active stream c h a ~ e l s ; where this' was not possible, samples

were collected from b+ ox terrace deposits adjacent to the channel.

Rock aamples.were crushed and split, and one split was pulverized.

The pulverized splits of the rock samples and the minus 80 mesh fractions

of the stream-sediment samples were analyzed for 30 elements by the

U. S . Geological Survey' a standard six-step semiquantitative spectrographic

method and fox gold and mercury by the a~tomic abeorption method (Tables

2 and 3) . .The precision of a reported value is approximately plus 100

pexcant or minus 50 percent. Analyses for gald by the atomic absorption

method are accurate to 4 100 percent. Semiquantitative spectrographic

analyses were done by K. J, Cu~ry, and atomic sbaorption d y e a s were done

by R. B. Tripp, H. D. Ring, R. L. Miller, A. L, Meier, and D. G. Murrey.

Locations of the rock and stream-sediment samples are shown on figure

The results of the analyses of the stream-sediment and rock analyses

have been processed by means of a computer horn as GEOSUM and are

presented in Tables 2 and 3. The GEOSUM program is designed primarily for

summarizing and tabulating geochemical data--especially data from

semiq~ntitative spectrographic analyses (commonly referred to as six-siep

spectrographic analyses) by the laboratories of the U.S. Geological Survey.

The computer output coasiete of: (a) a tabulation of the data, (b) histogram

and cumulative frequency distributiona for inll elements for which there f a

sufficient data, (c) a statistical 8.rmrmary which includes geometric means

I/ and geometric deviations.-

Y ~ h e frequency tables and histogram for gold and mercury have been '

omitted because the classes used in calculating these tables are those used in the semiquantitative spectslographic method, and gold and mercury were analyzed by the quantitative atomlc absorption method. The frequency tables and histograms that contain no valid data points and those for which the minimum and maximum are the same have also been ~ m i t t e d .

The geometric mean is the antilogarithm of the arithmetic mean of the logs of the analyses and ag estimate of "central tendency," or of a characteristic value, of a frequency distribution.that is approximately spnmletrical on a log scale, and is therefore useful for characterizing k n y I

geochemical distributions. The geometric mean is not an estimate of geochemical.abundance. The geometric deviation is the antilogarithm of ' the atandard deviation of the logs of the analyses. See USGS Professional . Paper 574-B (Miesch, 1967) for further discussion and USGS Bulletin 1147E (Miasch, 1963, p. 20-23), for further discussion and explanation of geometric

In the computations performed to produce the statistical summary at the I

. end of Tables 2 and 3 all elements are ignored where one or more of the unqualified data values is less than the analytical limit of detection I specified on input 01: where any data values are qualified with the G (greater I

than) code. Data values qualified with B or H are not used in the computa- I

tions. Wl~ere none of the data values for an element are qualified the mean I

and deviation should be the same as those given in the preceding section, . Where data are qualified tilth the codes N, L, or T, the estimatcs.of geometric

mean and deviation are based on a method by A. J. Cohen for treating censored distributions. The application of this method of geochemical problems is described in USGS Professional Paper 574-B (lliesch, 1967). The estimates are unbiased in a strict sense only whe're the data are derived from a lognormal parent population, but experiments have shown that large departures from this require~nent may not greatly invalidate the results. Acceptance and use of the estimates, however, is the responsibility of the individual.

A mercury content of 1 .2 pprn was reported f o r one sample (map no. 25) from

Peters Creek.

Weakly anomalous gold contents (0.04 ppm) were found i n two samples

(map nos. 27 and 32) from peters Creek. Cappd (1916, p . 192-193) described

several lode gold prospects on quartz veins near the head of Peters Creek,

approximately 8-1/2 milea upstream from the weakly anomalous samples.

Weakly anomalous contents of silver (0.5 to 1.5 ppm) were detected in

two stream-sediment samples and one rock samgle from the South Fork of ths e

Eagle Uvar'area. The source of the silver in the stream-sediment samples
