Data

This publication provides digital flight line data for a high-resolution magnetic and radiometric survey over part of central Arkansas and southern Missouri. The airborne geophysical survey was funded by the Earth Mapping Resources Initiative and was designed to meet the complimentary needs related to geologic mapping and mineral resource research. The survey covers an irregularly shaped...

There is a growing demand for commodities (elements, compounds, minerals) used in today's advanced technologies. Critical minerals are usually found in ore deposits that are deemed vital to economic and national security. National Geochemical Database on Ore Deposits: New data featuring fusion digestion (NGDOD) analytical methods contains chemistry and geologic information for 16,579 ore...

This data release provides digital flight-line and gridded data for a high-resolution airborne magnetic and radiometric survey over the central portion of the Colorado Mineral Belt, central Colorado. The Colorado Mineral Belt is a broad, northeast-southwest trending alignment of historic mining districts that have produced multiple types of commodities, including critical minerals that...

The data included here were used to evaluate the prospectivity for lithium in brines of playas of the western part of the Basin and Range Physiographic Province of the United States. Prospectivity is derived from the mappable criteria used in the descriptive deposit model published by Bradley and others (2013) and focused mainly from the remote sensing point of view. The playas in the...

Representative whole-rock analyses of the Spor Mountain Formation, Utah.

Pb and Nd isotopic compositions of the Spor Mountain Formation, Utah.

Geochemical, petrophysical, and depth to the Paleozoic-Precambrian basement interface from drill hole data for Mesoproterozoic igneous rocks and iron ore deposits of the St. Francois Mountains, southeast Missouri (MMDB) are provided in this data release. The samples were collected as part of various agency programs and projects from 1967 through 2019. Most samples were collected by...

Stable isotope analyses are reported (the ratios deuterium/hydrogen, carbon-13/carbon-12, oxygen-18/oxygen-16, and sulfur-34/sulfur-32) for ores and related rocks from the Pea Ridge, Lower Pilot Knob, Bourbon, Iron Mountain, and Kratz Spring iron oxide-apatite deposits in southeast Missouri; the Boss iron oxide-copper-gold deposit in southeast Missouri; the Gagaryah stratiform barite...

Powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) data and estimates of mineral abundances determined using Rietveld refinement included in this data release were generated as part of the Earth Mapping Resources Initiative (Earth MRI; https://www.usgs.gov/special-topics/earth-mri). Earth MRI is a partnership between the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) and state geological surveys and was developed by the...

Gravity data were collected in 2022 and 2023 to assist in mapping surface and subsurface geology in the central Upper Peninsula of Michigan. This data release provides principal facts for 666 new gravity stations that were acquired to supplement existing public gravity data coverage.

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) collected rock physical property measurements to help understand causative sources of gravity and magnetic survey anomalies in the central Upper Peninsula of Michigan. A total of 1,460 measurements of magnetic susceptibility and density from 61 outcrops and 37 boreholes have been conducted on Precambrian rocks. The measurements aid in interpretation of...

This dataset accompanies proposed publication, "Tectonic disruption of the Proterozoic Yavapai-Matzatzal Province boundary near Sierra Hornaday, northwest Sonora", to be published in a Geological Society of America publication, which will report zircon SHRIMP-RG U-Pb ages and Sm-Nd whole rock isotope analyses to map the path of the Yavapai-Matzatzal province boundary across southwest...
