Water resources of Wisconsin--Lake Superior basin Water resources of Wisconsin--Lake Superior basin
This report describes the physical environment, availability, distribution, movement, quality, and use of water in the upper Wisconsin River basin as an aid in planning and water management. The report presents general information on the basin derived from data obtained from Federal, State, and local agencies, New field data were collected in areas where information was lacking. More...

Bedrock geologic map of the Greenwood quadrangle, Marquette County, Michigan Bedrock geologic map of the Greenwood quadrangle, Marquette County, Michigan
The Marquette Iron Range is presently ( 1973) the second largest iron mining district in the United States. Commercial iron deposits, now mostly concentrating-grade ore, are in the Negaunee Iron-formation, which is part of a thick sequence of metasedimentary rocks of Precambrian X age. These rocks are preserved in the west-trending Marquette synclinorium, and are flanked to the north and...

Water resources of the Crow River watershed, south-central Minnesota Water resources of the Crow River watershed, south-central Minnesota
The Crow River watershed, an area of about 2,760 square miles, is covered entirely by glacial deposits. A topographically high, east-west-trending end moraine divides most of the watershed into two drainage areas of approximately equal size. The North Fork Crow River drains a mixture of glacial outwash and till deposits, whereas the South Fork Crow River drains chiefly till deposits...

Water availability in central Wisconsin — An area of near-surface crystalline rock Water availability in central Wisconsin — An area of near-surface crystalline rock
Available ground water in much of central Wisconsin is limited to discharge through wells of low yield. Aquifers that yield small amounts of water to wells include fractured crystalline rock at or near surface in the eastern part of the area, sandstone overlying crystalline rock in the southern and western parts, and glacial till that covers the area north and west of the Marshfield...

Ground water and geology of Baraga County, Michigan Ground water and geology of Baraga County, Michigan
Most wells In Baraga County obtain water from beds of sand and gravel in morainal and lakebed deposits or from the Jacobsville Sandstone. Yields of wells range from a few to as much as 115 gallons per minute, but most wells probably yield less than 10 gpm. Large areas, where igneous and metamorphic rocks crop out or are covered only by thin drift, are unfavorable for obtaining enough...
