Aerial view of the village of Maatan near a small trona lake about 55 kilometers northwest of Umm Al Abyad. The lake dries up late in the summer, and sodium carbonate is deposited at the bottom of the lake. Note the saline residues already accumulating in April around the edges of the lake in the foreground. The sand dunes in the background are more than 100 meters high. Libya. Circa 1958. Published in U.S. Geological Survey Professional Paper 660, Figure 13. 1970.
Aerial view of Simpson Desert. Pans holding both salt (right) and water (left) but few dunes; near Oodnadatta. Australia. 1976.
Distant view of 1983 Borah Peak fault scarp at base of bedrock spurs between Willow Creek (on left) and Birch Springs (on right), Thousand Springs Valley. The two high points in background are Borah Peak (obscured in clouds) and Leatherman [Peak], to left and right, respectively. View to southeast from photo station 83 MM 13. 70 meters south, 10 meters east, NW1/4, Sec. 32, T. 10 N., R. 22 E. Borah Peak quadrangle. Custer County, Idaho. November 8, 1983.

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 study area have been ranked according to size (compared to Clayton Valley, the only area where lithium from brines is being produced in the country), the presence and abundance of source rocks, vegetation (as an indicator of water), reported prospects, and remote sensing data. The remote sensing products used are from data acquired...
