PRESS RELEASES, PRELIMINARY M&PS, AMD PRELIMINARY REPORTS

RELEASED BY THE GEOLOGIC BRANCH AND ALASKAN BRANCH

BETWEEN JANUARY 1, 1938 AND JANUARY 1, 1945

This listing was not designated a USGS Circular. Please identify as Circular 1945.

Compiled by Lois S. Kent and R, P. Keroher

September 1945

INTRODUCTION

This- pamphlet contains a complete list of all naps and reports issued by the Geologic. Branch and Alaskan Branch of the Geological Survey -whose release was announced by press-notice during the period between January 1, 1938 and-January 1, 1945 The Geologic Branch material was compiled by Lois S. Kent, and the'Alaskan Branch material by R. P. Kerch er. It is expected.that similar lists will be published annually hereafter*

These reports and maps are the results of work carried out by Survey geologists on mineral deposits in the United States> Alaska, and Cuba during: the war and the years immediately preceding the war. They were re leased In preliminary form as rapidly as possible in this period to avoid the delays necessarily attendant upon formal publication and to make the information, contained in them promptly available to property owners and mine operators concerned with.the production of strategic and critical mineral commodities.

Most of> the maps-were duplicated by rapid, inexpensive processes, such- as photostat, Van Dyke, and ozalid, although some were duplicated by photolith or chromplith processes giving a more finished result. Texts of the reports were in some instances printed on the same sheets with the mapsj in others they were prepared.separately and either mimeographed or typed.,

TTar restrictions permitted the preparation of only limited editions ox these maps and reports, not all of .which can now be supplied. Those still available may be obtained upon request addressed to the Director, Geologi cal Survey, Washington 25, D. C. ,A number of the maps and reports have been, superseded by regular published bulletins, sold by the Government Printing Office. Reference is. given to the title and date of these publi cations in .the column "Remarks'* of this pamphlet.

Maps and reports not prepared for general distribution were deposited in open files in various Geological Survey offices, offices of other Government agencies, and those of State geological agencies for consulta tion 'by persons interested in the deposits studied. The names and ad dresses of these offices are given in the press notices announcing the release of reports to open files and in the column "Remarks'* in this list. Maps in open files only are listed herein under "Remarks," whereas, maps available for general distribution are listed under "Maps distributed."

The press notices are arranged alphabetically first by commodities and second by State and county, or in the case of the Alaska press notioas by region and district.
