OFR 35-91 - Evaluation of the Tin-Tungsten Greisen Mineralization and Associated Granite at Sleitat Mountain, Southwestern Alaska. 1991.

In June, 1989, the U.S. Bureau of Mines, undertook a 9 -day evaluation of the tin resource potential of the Sleitat Mountain tin deposit. Significant tin -tungsten mineralization is associated with quartz- topaz -white mica -tourmaline greisen alteration of a multi -unit, 57 Ma, peraluminous, granite stock which intrudes Cretaceous Kuskokwim Group flysch deposits. The granite comprises marginal biotite -, intermediate biotite muscovite-, and central zinnwaldite- granite units, interpreted as a zoned alteration system. Major vein mineralization is confined to two east -west -trending zones of steeply oriented tabular lenses of greisen interleaved with mildly altered granite. Cassiterite is the dominant ore mineral...

OFR 85-92 - Tin Mineralization at the Won Prospect, West-Central Alaska. 1992.

Tin mineralization at the Won prospect was investigated by the Bureau of Mines in July 1989 and June 1990 as part of an ongoing investigation of the tin resource potential in Alaska. The Won prospect is located 40 miles north of McGrath, Alaska. The tin deposits at the Won prospect are associated with several northwest trending, moderately dipping breccia -vein structures developed in tourmaline- and quartz -altered hornfels. Tin occurs in brecciated hornfels with cassiterite matrix, cassiterite druse on fracture surfaces of open spaced, crackle breccia, and as disseminated grains in quartz veins containing minor silver, arsenic, copper, antimony, and zinc mineralization. Based upon limited sampling, and estimated...

OFR 174-84 - Columbium in the Gold and Tin-Bearing Placer Deposits Near Tofty, Alaska. 1984.

The Tofty mining district, near Manley Hot Springs in north-central Alaska, has been the scene of placer gold mining since 1906 and has produced more than 100,000 tr oz of gold and several hundred tons of byproduct tin, in the form of placer cassiterite. Although open -cut mining methods are currently employed, drift-mining methods were formerly utilized to mine the gold- and tin-bearing gravels. As part of the current Bureau of Mines Alaska -wide assessment of critical and strategic minerals, splits of concentrate samples collected in the 1950's from 11 tailings piles representative of the presently inactive Tofty drift mines were re-analyzed in 1983 for tantalum and columbium (niobium). Most of these concentrates...

OFR 92-92 - Examination of the Win Tin Prospect, West-Central Alaska. 1992.

Mineralization at the Win prospect was investigated by the Bureau of Mines in June, 1990 and 1991, as part of an ongoing investigation of the tin, niobium, and tantalum resource potential in Alaska. The Win prospect is located twenty miles northwest of McGrath, AK. Mineral deposits consist of polymetallic sulfide and quartz- cassiterite mineralized vein and breccia vein systems within a quartz -tourmaline (dravite) -altered hornfels aureole that appears to be related to a small dacite stock and dikes. Host rocks for most of the veins are altered, Late Cretaceous Kuskokwim Group flyschoid rocks. The dacite is a calc- alkalic, high Ca, low K, biotite, magnetite, garnet -bearing coarse -grained intrusive. Mafic and...
