About this award

The U.S. Geological Survey's Office of Acquisitions and Grants awarded a purchase order to Geosep Services, LLC, for $24,820.00 on August 3, 2026, for apatite fission-track (AFT) and uranium-lead (U-Pb) thermochronometric analyses of geological samples from the Kuskokwim Mountains region in Alaska. Work will be performed in Moscow, Idaho, and is scheduled to conclude on December 31, 2027. The order requires analysis of 16 geological samples—14 bedrock and 2 unconsolidated sediment samples—using conventional fission-track counting with 252Cf irradiation, sample preparation, precision microscopy at 2000x magnification, and laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. Deliverables include an Excel spreadsheet with raw fission-track counts, kinetic parameters, elemental measurements, fission-track lengths, and calculated AFT and U-Pb ages. The award followed a sources sought market research announcement posted July 14, 2026, with a response deadline of July 17, 2026.
