    UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR GEOLOGICAL SURVEY METALLIFEROUS AND SELECTED NONMETALLI FERGUS MINERAL RESOURCE POTENTIAL IN THE BIG DELTA QUADRANGLE, ALASKA By W. David Menzie and Helen L. Foster Open-File Report 78-529 D This report is preliminary and has not been edited or reviewed for conformity with Geological Survey standards or nomenclature METALLIFEROUS AND SELECTED NONMETALLIFERGUS MINERAL RESOURCE POTENTIAL IN THE BIG DELTA QUADRANGLE, ALASKA By W. David Menzie and Helen L. Foster Introduction This report is an assessment of the metalliferous mineral potential of the Big Delta quadrangle, Alaska, by tract and by type of deposit, and a discussion of the occurrence of selected nonmetallic resources. The assess­ ment is based on investigations of the geology, geochemistry, geophysics, and telegeology of the area. Geologic investigations included regional scale (1:250,000) reconnaissance geologic mapping (Weber and others, 1978), age dating of selected igneous rocks (Wilson, 1976), and chemical analysis of mineralized and unmineralized rocks (Foster and others, 1978). Geochemical investigations included analysis of the minus 80 mesh fraction of stream sediments, analysis of the nonmagnetic heavy mineral concentrates of stream sediments, analysis of the oxide residue of stream sediments, and analysis of the ash of willow leaves and twigs (O'Leary and others, 1978; Hessin and others, 1978a-j). Geophysical investigations consisted of an airborne aeromagnetic survey of the quadrangle (Alaska Div. Geophys. Surveys, 1975) and an interpretation of the aeromagnetic data (Griscorn, 1978). Telegeologic investigations consisted of an interpretation of Landsat imagery of the quadrangle (Albert and Steele, 1978). Acknowledgments The preparation of this report was facilitated by the efforts of a number of people.

  • Timeline of Maine Skiing New England Ski Museum in Preparation for 2015 Annual Exhibit
    Timeline of Maine Skiing New England Ski Museum In preparation for 2015 Annual Exhibit Mid 1800s: “…the Maine legislature sought to populate the vast forests of northern Maine. It offered free land to anyone who would take up the challenge of homesteading in this wilderness. ...Widgery Thomas, state legislator and ex-Ambassador to Sweden…suggested that the offer of free land be made to people in Sweden. In May, 1870 Thomas sailed for Sweden to offer 100 acres of land to any Swede willing to settle in Maine. Certificates of character were required. Thomas himself had to approve each recruit.” Glenn Parkinson, First Tracks: Stories from Maine’s Skiing Heritage . (Portland: Ski Maine, 1995), 4. March 1869: “In March 1869 the state resolved “to promote the settlement of the public and other lands” by appointing three commissioners of settlement. William Widgery Thomas, Jr., one of the commissioners, had extensive diplomatic experience as ambassador to Sweden for Presidents Arthur and Harrison. Thomas had lived among the Swedes for years and was impressed with their hardy quality. He returned to the United States convinced that Swedes would make just the right sort of settlers for Maine. When Thomas became consul in Goteborg (Gothenburg), he made immediate plans for encouraging Swedes to emigrate to America.” E. John B. Allen, “”Skeeing” in Maine: The Early Years, 1870s to 1920s”, Maine Historical Society Quarterly , 30, 3 & 4, Winter, Spring 1991, 149.

By Monte Paulsen Each day that dawns, the Earth swells by a population greater than that of the Portland area. From a human perspective, the population explosion is the most difficult problem on Earth. Fighting overpopulation means str. against familial and hormonal procreate, intruding on the privacy relations, violating moral and religious against contraception, and, as a last resort, kill­ ing unborn children. Population control measures are unpopular, if not downright offensive, to peopleatevery pointalong the political spectrum. But from the perspective of the Earth itself, overpopulation is a simple biological fact: there are more people than there is habitat to support them. There are just too many people.
