Unconsolidated deposits include glacial, glaciofluvial, alluvial, and eluvial sediments. Igneous rocks consist of granitic, mafic, and pegmatitic dikes and sills. Metaigneous units include metagranitic and metagranodioritic sills and greenstone sills. Metasedimentary rocks comprise interbedded marble and schist, calcareous schist, quartzite-schist assemblages, marble units, graphitic and calcareous schist, biotite-schist and quartzite assemblages, and dolomitic and calcitic marble. These units display gradational contacts and represent lithologies previously assigned to the Nome Group. The map provides detailed lithologic and structural information to support geologic interpretation and mineral investigations within the quadrangle. The dataset provides geologic, structural, stratigraphic, and geochronologic information organized according to the GeMS and AK GeMS mapping schemas. The complete report, geodatabase, and ESRI fonts and style files are available from the DGGS website: https://dggs.alaska.gov/pubs/id/13142.The map supports geologic interpretation, mineral investigations, and regional geologic studies by illustrating lithologic variability, stratigraphic relationships, and structural features within the quadrangle.This geodatabase is organized according to the AK GeMS mapping schema Hendricks, M.D., Macpherson, A.E., Athey, J.E., Wyatt, W.C., Montayne, Simone, Buchanan, Wes, Rivera, P.G., and Steinleitner, A.M., 2024, AK GeMS data dictionary: A description of the Alaska geologic mapping schema: Alaska Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys Miscellaneous Publication 170 v. 2, 13 p. https://doi.org/10.14509/31172.

Fieldwork included observation and description of lithologies, stratigraphic contacts, structural features, and geomorphic relationships. Rock units were examined and classified based on mineralogy, texture, and weathering characteristics, and gradational contacts were traced and recorded where present. Unconsolidated deposits were mapped using surface morphology and sediment characteristics. Igneous and metaigneous dikes and sills were identified and differentiated by composition. Metasedimentary units were mapped by tracing changes in schist, quartzite, marble, and mixed lithologies. Field data were compiled with existing geologic information to delineate unit boundaries and prepare a preliminary geologic map at 1:63,360 scale. Final compilation included organizing lithologic descriptions, standardizing unit terminology, and preparing the map layout for publication.1962Data packaging - DGGS organized and attributed the geologic and geographic features according to the AK GeMS schema, then programmatically transformed the data into four distribution formats: (1) an AK GeMS data package containing the full database and supporting files, (2) a GeMS data package converted to the USGS base standard, (3) a SQLite database file, and (4) a simplified shapefile package with shapefile representations of the data.2026vectorUniversal Transverse Mercator30.999600-1650500000.0000000coordinate pair.00000001.00000001MetersNAD27Clarke 18666378206.4294.9786982nome_d1_quad_ak_gems_dbGeodatabase, layer files, style files, and fontsDGGS and USGSnome_d1_quad_ak_gems_dbnome_d1_quad_gems_dbGeodatabase, layer files, style files, and fontsDGGS and USGSnome_d1_quad_gems_dbnome_d1_quad_gems_geopackageSQLite Database fileDGGS and USGSnome_d1_quad_gems_geopackagenome_d1_quad_gems_shapefileShapefiles and open data filesDGGS and USGSnome_d1_quad_gems_shapefileAlaska Division of Geological & Geophysical SurveysMetadata Managermailing and physical
