<descript>
<abstract>This map is a compilation of previously unpublished and published data, as well as from updated field mapping. This publication offers a 1:125,000-scale map sheet accompanied by a booklet containing a summary of the geology, a colored terrane map, map unit descriptions, a summary table listing selected mineral deposits and energy resources, references, and a correlation of map units. The text (in the report) describes the geology and resource potential of a highly mineralized region centered in the Farewell silver-lead-zinc district southeast of McGrath. Potentially important coal resources flanking the Alaska Range are also described in the map area.</abstract>
<purpose>This project and resulting report, map and layers are intended to provide a geologic map and a geologic interpretation of the eastern half of the McGrath Quadrangle at 1:125,000 scale. Companies involved in or considering mineral exploration in the McGrath area will find this map useful, as well as persons examining the region&apos;s coal resources as a potential fuel for local heat and power development.</purpose>
<supplinf>
The layers listed below are present as ArcGIS shape files. Attribute information for the following layers (entities) is included in this metadata file under the &quot;Entity_and_Attribute_Information&quot; section. Each layer is listed and described in detail under its own heading starting &quot;Entity_Type_Label.&quot; Basic unit information is also included in the geologic unit code set file &quot;RI1997-14_codeset.pdf.&quot; Layers include:
&gt;mcggeog_arc    geologic map unit contacts (arc)
&gt;mcggeog_poly    geologic map unit contacts (polygon)
&gt;mcgflt_arc    fault location traces and types
&gt;mcgglacial_arc    glacial extents
&gt;mcgcline_arc    anticline and syncline traces of axial planes
&gt;mcgdike_arc   dike locations and probable lengths
&gt;mcgstrsym_point    points for the strike, dip, and plunge of bedding planes, foliation, and various lineaments
&gt;mcgstrdip_point    point attribute table that displays strike and dip information
&gt;mcgmine_point    location of selected mineral deposits and energy resources

<attracc>
<attraccr>Data for geologic layers was digitized off of a mylar geologic compilation.  This compilation was done on a stable mylar of the USGS topographic base for the McGrath Quadrangle, Alaska that was photographically enlarged to 1:125,000. (Topographic base compiled in 1965, revised in 1978, 1980, and 1982.)  Geologic data included in the compilation are the field maps and notes from this project as well as data from other sources as noted in the &quot;Sources Cited&quot; section.</attraccr>
</attracc>
<logic>Polygon topology present and clean on appropriate coverages.  Other coverages are line, point, or annotation coverages and do not require topologic relationships. Chain-node topology present.</logic>
<complete>This data set includes coverages that contain information about geologic units, sample locations, structural features, structural measurements, dikes, selected mines, glacial limits, and materials units.</complete>
<posacc>
<horizpa>
<horizpar>Location data were determined visually using topographic maps at scales of 1:63,360 and 1:40,000 scale topographic maps using USGS map bases.  Some stations were plotted on 1:63,360 scale Infra-Red and 1:40,000 scale black and white air photos during mapping. Because location information was acquired during the time period 1980-1992, GPS technology was not used to determine locations.  Instead, geologic contacts, sample, and station locations were visually hand-plotted onto stable mylar bases from the field maps and in some instances, air photos.  The lists of samples were visually checked against the lists of analyzed samples returned from the laboratories.</horizpar>
<qhorizpa>
<horizpav>100</horizpav>
<horizpae>The estimated horizontal error of this dataset is +/- 100 meters. Geologic map data have a horizontal positional accuracy dependent on the &quot;on-screen&quot; method of digital cartography. Map error is induced by: (1) the nominal scale of the aerial photographs on which it is based, with an estimated potential error due to a pen line width of approximately 0.001 being equivalent to approximately 1.5 meters on the ground; (2) the error produced by suturing and stretching air photos during orthorectification, with measured errors ranging from X-Y meters; (3) the digitizing RMS error, which varies with digitizing session from X-Y meters; and (4) the accuracy of the human operator digitizing the geologic linework from the topographic base maps and orthophoto, with an estimated error due to a pen line width of approximately 0.001 being equivalent to approximately 1.5 meters on the ground.</horizpae>

<srccontr>The geologic map synthesis has benefited from detailed mapping in the Terra Cotta Mountains provided in this publication.</srccontr>
</srcinfo>
<procstep>
<procdesc>The coverages included in this project are digitized from a mylar compilation of geologic field maps produced on USGS topo bases of the area.   Map unit (polygon) locations and attributes were checked by three reviewers familiar with the dominant geologic rock types and structures and/or the specific geology of the McGrath quadrangle area. Location data were determined visually using topographic maps at scales of 1:63,360 and 1:40,000 scale topographic maps using USGS map bases.  Some stations were plotted on 1:63,360 scale Infra-Red and 1:40,000 scale black and white air photos during mapping. Because location information was acquired during the time period 1980-1992, GPS technology was not used to determine locations.  Instead, geologic contacts, sample, and station locations were visually hand-plotted onto stable mylar bases from the field maps and in some instances, air photos.</procdesc>
