2,514 | Identify and describe mineral occurrences by location. | What mineral is found in Alaska, United States? | The site is known as **Shumagin**. It is located in Alaska, United States. The coordinates are (55.22534, -160.5763). This is a m deposit. The primary mineral found here is gold, silver. It also contains tellurium, lead, copper, mercury, arsenic, zinc. Mining is carried out using a unknown method. The development status is currently prospect. The primary ore is arsenopyrite, galena, gold, pyrite, sphalerite. Associated gangue minerals include calcite, quartz. The ore shows signs of strong argillic alteration is present as much as 148 feet from the shumagin deposit. quartz-sericite-pyrite alteration adjoins the union vein and the matrix-supported quartz breccia. the presence of adularia is suspected (white and queen, 1989).. there are indications of a broad aureole of mercury and arsenic as much as 250 feet from the union vein. alteration.
