Summary

This data release includes whole rock (WR) geochemical data, and uranium-lead isotopic data collected using a sensitive high resolution ion microprobe-reverse geometry (SHRIMP-RG) instrument; the SHRIMP-RG is a type of secondary ion mass spectrometer (SIMS). Whole rock geochemistry data were analyzed at Bureau Veritas Commodities Canada Ltd. Laboratories in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. SHRIMP-RG data were collected at the USGS-Stanford University SHRIMP-RG in Palo Alto, California, USA. Rock samples for all methods were collected by Phillip Geer, Sean Regan, and Greg Walsh. SHRIMP-RG sample preparation and analyses were conducted by Ryan McAleer. The whole rock geochemistry and uranium-lead (U-Pb) isotopic data constrain the [...]

Purpose

The data were collected in support of geologic mapping in the Adirondack Highlands of New York. The data constrain the age and origin of Mesoproterozoic rocks in the Eagle Lake 7.5-minute topographic quadrangle, New York. This data release accompanies the planned publication, Bedrock geologic map of the Eagle Lake quadrangle, Essex County, New York, submitted to the USGS as a Scientific Investigations Map.
