Digital mining claim density map for federal lands in Arizona: 1996 Digital mining claim density map for federal lands in Arizona: 1996

This report describes a digital map generated by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) to provide digital spatial mining claim density information for federal lands in Arizona as of March 1997. Mining claim data is earth science information deemed to be relevant to the assessment of historic, current, and future ecological, economic, and social systems. There is no paper map included in this...

Digital elevation model (DEM) of Cascadia, latitude 39N-53N, longitude 116W-133W Digital elevation model (DEM) of Cascadia, latitude 39N-53N, longitude 116W-133W

This report contains a 250-meter digital elevation model (DEM) for Cascadia (latitude 39N - 53N, longitude 116W - 133W), a region that encompasses the Cascade volcanic arc, the Cascadia subduction zone, and the Juan de Fuca Ridge system. The DEM is distributed as file cascdem.tar.gz (39 MB; 78MB uncompressed).

Physical, chemical, and isotopic data for samples from the Anderson Springs area, Lake County, California, 1998-1999 Physical, chemical, and isotopic data for samples from the Anderson Springs area, Lake County, California, 1998-1999

Anderson Springs is located about 90 miles (145 kilometers) north of San Francisco, California, in the southwestern part of Lake County. The area was first developed in the late 1800s as a health resort, which was active until the 1930s. In the rugged hills to the south of the resort were four small mercury mines of the eastern Mayacmas quicksilver district. About 1,260 flasks of mercury...

The Silent Canyon caldera complex — A three-dimensional model based on drill-hole stratigraphy and gravity inversion The Silent Canyon caldera complex — A three-dimensional model based on drill-hole stratigraphy and gravity inversion

The structural framework of Pahute Mesa, Nevada, is dominated by the Silent Canyon caldera complex, a buried, multiple collapse caldera complex. Using the boundary surface between low density Tertiary volcanogenic rocks and denser granitic and weakly metamorphosed sedimentary rocks (basement) as the outer fault surfaces for the modeled collapse caldera complex, it is postulated that the...

Geologic datasets for weights-of-evidence analysis in northeast Washington: 2. Mineral databases Geologic datasets for weights-of-evidence analysis in northeast Washington: 2. Mineral databases

Digital mineral databases are necessary to carry out weights-of-evidence modeling of mineral resources for epithermal gold and carbonate-hosted lead-zinc deposits in northeast Washington. This report describes spreadsheet tables consisting of: 1) training sites for epithermal gold, 2) placer gold sites, 3) training sites for carbonate-hosted lead-zinc, and 4) small lead-zinc mines and...

Plutons and accretionary episodes of the Klamath Mountains, California and Oregon Plutons and accretionary episodes of the Klamath Mountains, California and Oregon

The Klamath Mountains consist of various accreted terranes and include many plutons that range in composition from gabbro to granodiorite. Some of the plutons (preaccretionary plutons) were parts of terranes before the terranes accreted; others (accretionary plutons) intruded during or after the accretion of their host terrane(s). This report attempts to (1) graphically illustrate how...
