Geological map of the Sagavanirktok B-1 Quadrangle, eastern North Slope, Alaska

alaska division of geological geophysical surveys dggs has conducted 1 63 360 scale geologic mapping of the sagavanirktok b 1 quadrangle 640 square km equivalent to four 7 5 minute quadrangles this geologic map was produced by merging a bedrock geologic map and a surficial geologic map of the eagle a 2 quadrangle this mapping project reinterprets micropaleontologic correlations for 17 sagavanirktok quadrangle wells and reprocesses data from the one publicly available seismic line surface geologic mapping subsurface to surface stratigraphic age control and seismic framework are required to reliably decipher the complex geology of this key area of the brooks range outcrops within the sagavanirktok b 1 quadrangle are the closest surface expressions of prudhoe bay source and reservoir rocks this study yields critical petroleum related information from these surface exposures and how they relate to the area subsurface stratigraphy
