Merritt, R.D. Hawley, C.C. 1986 map, vector digital data Special Report SR 37 Fairbanks, AK State of Alaska, Department of Natural Resources, Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys 1 sheet, scale 1:2,500,000 http://dx.doi.org/10.14509/2636 This data contains the location of coal resources within the State of Alaska and created in cooperation with the Alaska Coal Association. Total hypothetical coal resources in Alaska exceed 5.5 trillion short tons, equal to about half the estimated coal resources of the United States. Major coal deposits occur in the Northern Alaska, Nenana, and Cook Inlet-Susitna provinces. The data provides consultants, planners, and resource managers with information on the location of coal resources. Coal resources in numerous smaller coal fields around the state are less well defined, but some may constitute a viable local energy resource. Alaska's coal resources are sufficient for domestic use and export for at least the next century and probably for two or three centuries based on current consumption rates. The layers listed below are available as GIS shape files. Attribute information for the following layers (entities) is included in this metadata file under the "Entity_and_Attribute_Information" section. Each layer is listed and described in detail under its own heading starting "Entity_Type_Label." Layers include: >akcoal_poly boundary of coal district or contact showing limit of geologic unit >coalbasin_poly boundary of coal basins and prospective coal basins >coalfield_poly boundary of coal fields >coalpoint_point location of coal occurrence of unknown extent >coalunit_poly boundary of coal ranks 1984 1986 publication date complete none planned -172.0 -130.0 71.5 52.0 ISO 19115 Topic Category geoscientificInformation none Coal Coal Quality Geology Mining none Alaska Peninsula Alaska, State of Chuitna River Cook Inlet Cook Inlet Basin Herendeen Bay Koyukuk Basin Matanuska Valley Nenana Basin North Slope NPRA Tanana Basin none Beluga Formation Chickaloon Formation Chignik Formation Colville Group Healy Creek Formation Kapaloak Formation Kenai Group Kushtaka Formation Lisburne Group Nanushuk Group Sagavanirktok Formation Sterling Formation Suntrana Formation Tyonek Formation none Cretaceous Eocene Miocene Mississippian Oligocene Paleocene Pliocene Tertiary This report, map, and/or data set are available directly from the State of Alaska, Department of Natural Resources, Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys (see contact information below).

This dataset includes geospatial information about boundaries of coal fields, coal occurrences of unknown extent, boundaries of coal basins, and coal rank boundaries. Unknown. 250 The estimated horizontal error of this dataset is +/- 250 meters. Considering the errors inherent in the USGS topographic maps, locating oneself in the field, and digitizing the map, all localities and boundaries are located to an estimated accuracy of +/- 250 meters.

Digitized from SR 37 paper map (R. Clement 6/91). The projection used was Albers Conical Equal Area. Some error was introduced by using Stan Molls' SERIESE.AML. 1991 The attributes of several ArcGIS shape files were corrected for errors. For example, several of the "NAME" attributes were off by one FID in the attribute tables, where the FID "0" had been left blank. Polygon features were generated from several of the arc features and unit name and coal rank information was consolidated into the new polygon features (K.R. Papp 11/07). 2007 Formal, FGDC-compliant metadata was written for this dataset (K.R.
