This report briefly describes the nickel-copper deposits of Yakobi Island, southeastern Alaska, as well as the general geology of the island. It also interprets and summarizes the geological data obtained during drilling tests in 1941 and 1942 by the Bureau of Mines and magnetometer exploration in 1943 by the Geological Survey of the nickel-copper deposits. These deposits have been described by Reed and Dorr and much detail has been omitted from this report, as it is available in this bulletin.
