Data

The Yukon-Tanana Upland airborne magnetic geophysical data merge provides a merged raster grid of magnetic data for the Yukon-Tanana Upland (YTU), Alaska. This dataset provides a regionally consistent magnetic grid while retaining as much detail as possible of the originating data by leveling all the region's magnetic grids to one another. This 100-m cell-size magnetic grid of the YTU...

Global demand for lithium, the primary component of lithium-ion batteries, greatly exceeds known supplies and this imbalance is expected to increase as the world transitions away from fossil fuel energy sources. The goal of this work was to calculate the total lithium mass in brines of the Reynolds oolite unit of the Smackover Formation in southern Arkansas using predicted lithium...

This dataset contains U-Pb isotopic data and associated ages of zircons within the lithologic framework of igneous, metaigneous, and metasedimentary rocks collected from the Seldovia quadrangle in southcentral Alaska. The samples were collected as part of geological mapping and research conducted from 2020 to 2023 and funded by the Mineral Resources Program of the U.S. Geological Survey...

This data release provides digital flight line data for a high-resolution airborne magnetic and radiometric survey over the Medicine Bow Mountains in southern Wyoming. The airborne survey was jointly funded by the Earth Mapping Resources Initiative and the Wyoming State Geological Survey (WSGS). The survey was designed to meet complementary needs related to geologic mapping and...

This U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) data release provides a digital geospatial database for the geologic map of the Bayhorse area, central Custer County, Idaho (Hobbs and others, 1991). Attribute tables and geospatial features (points, lines, polygons) conform to the Geologic Map Schema (GeMS, 2020) and represent the geologic map as published in the USGS Miscellaneous Investigations...

These data include geochemical analyses of rock and water samples collected from the Hajigak iron deposit, Bamyan and Wardak Provinces, Afghanistan in 2020.

These data include geochemical analyses of rock, mine waste, and water samples collected from the Aynak copper deposit, Logar Province, Afghanistan in 2020.

This dataset includes thin section images, automated mineralogy mineral maps, whole-rock geochemical data, and whole-rock Nd-Sr-Pb isotopic analysis of samples collected from nine mafic-ultramafic outcrops in the Wet Mountains, southern Colorado, during the summer of 2022. These data will accompany an upcoming journal publication and are intended to supplement recently collected airborne...

This data release provides digital flight-line and gridded data for a high-resolution airborne magnetic and radiometric survey over the southwestern portion of the Colorado Mineral Belt, southwestern 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...

The data release for the geologic map of the Dillon 1 x 2 degrees quadrangle, Idaho and Montana, is a Geologic Map Schema (GeMS)-compliant version that updates the GIS files for the geologic map published in U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Miscellaneous Investigations Series Map I-1803-H (Ruppel and others, 1993). The updated digital data present the attribute tables and geospatial...

This dataset accompanies the planned publication “Mantle Melting in Regions of Thick Continental Lithosphere-Examples from Late Cretaceous and Younger Volcanic Rocks, Southern Rocky Mountains, Colorado” in the journal Geosphere. The dataset includes 40Ar/39Ar data for 19 samples from the Rabbit Ears volcanic field and from the Elkhead Mountains in northcentral Colorado, USA. Samples were...

Airborne electromagnetic (AEM) and magnetic survey data were collected during March and April 2023 over a distance of 9,000 line kilometers in east central Alabama. Data were acquired by SkyTEM Canada Inc. with the SkyTEM 306HPM time-domain helicopter-borne electromagnetic system together with a Geometrics G822A cesium vapor magnetometer. The survey was acquired at a nominal flight...
