Radioactive mineral deposit locations were compiled on maps and lists, as well as production data/deposit summaries, in the CGS report: Nelson-Moore, J.L., Collins, D.B., and Hornbaker, A.L., 1978, Radioactive Mineral Occurrences of Colorado, Colorado Geological Survey Bulletin 40, 1,054 p. This comprehensive report contains 12 map plates that record the location of radioactive minerals, including past mined deposits, throughout Colorado. Also, the report contains compilations of production (if available), deposit type, mineral, and other data associated with each location. Most of the records are associated with uranium/vanadium deposits but also include deposits containing REEs and other minerals.

This collection includes field notes, interpretive geologic field maps, field station location maps, and other project materials, many of which are unpublished and archived by the Alaska Division of Geological and Geophysical Surveys. These materials have not been reviewed for accuracy, consistency, or completeness. The collection may contain data and documents pertaining to all related fields of geology, including oil and gas, geologic engineering, minerals industry, scientific data, and agency archives.
This collection is a compilation of reports, maps, and drill records containing geologic data from Maryland related to the occurrence potential of the 35 mineral resources identified by the U.S. Department of Interior as critical to the economic and national security of the United States (Fortier et al., 2018). The data compilation in this collection began with a USGS National Geologic and Geophysical Data Preservation Program (NGGDPP) FY2019 grant to support the process of identification and prioritization of focus areas for critical minerals.
The Lynne Deposit is a Volcanogenic Massive Sulfide Deposit in Oneida County in northern Wisconsin containing zinc, lead, silver, and small amounts of gold and copper. In 1990 and 1991, the Noranda Company drilled 133 exploration boreholes, and the core from some of these holes was donated to WGNHS and the Natural Resource Research Institute (NRRI) in Duluth, MN. In 2021, the NRRI donated core from seven holes to WGNHS. These cores were photographed, and detailed logs were created by Dr. Robert Lodge and students from the University of Wisconsin Eau Claire. Original documentation from the Noranda Company including logs, assays, cross sections, reports, and a site map are available at Oneida County’s website: https://www.co.oneida.wi.us/archive/mining/category1da1.html?linkcatid=9...
Dataset contains digital versions of physical core logs housed in Missouri Geological Survey archives. The logs are variable in detail, ranging from simple locations and formation tops to extensive stratigraphic descriptions and chemistry. A portion were done by MGS staff; others were donated by industry, academia, and government entities. The dataset includes logs for mines or undeveloped deposits with occurrences of or potential for critical minerals, along with logs in areas with permissive geology. The dataset comprises three tables: header and location information; formation/stratigraphic top, bottom and written description; and geochemical and assay data.

Annual summaries of mineral extraction and exploration activities in Idaho and factors impacting these activities. Published and unpublished content. In 1975 Idaho Geological Survey, then named Idaho Bureau of Mines and Geology, began compiling annual summaries for use by U.S. Bureau of Mines and U.S. Geological Survey annual reports after dissolution of the office of the Idaho State Inspector of Mines in 1974. These state data resources are generally more rich in content and context than federal summaries. As part of an ongoing project funded in part by U.S. Geological Survey and Idaho Department of Lands, data from these documents are being geo-related within the Idaho Geological Survey's Database of Mines and...
Digital files of basement structure in Colorado, including structure contours on top of Precambrian basement rock, selected wells drilled to Precambrian and Lower Paleozoic rocks, sedimentary basins, major oil and gas fields, Precambrian and Upper Cretaceous to Tertiary volcanic and intrusive rock outcrops. Major sedimentary basins and arches, as well as Precambrian mountain ranges and volcanic fields are included. Also included are 73 gas fields and 129 oil fields.
Historically, the Legacy Core and Cuttings Collection (LCCC) is the principal compilation of NCGS?s borehole records. This is an electronic compilation of pre-1988, onshore holdings that documents core, cuttings and well logs for 875 borehole records. Hoffman and Nickerson (1988) provide an explanation of how this data was compiled and organized into an early database that was eventually migrated by J.G. Nickerson to an ARCGIS geodatabase. The database?s 875 borehole records are categorized as: 1) WELLDATA, 2) OILTEST, 3) TRIASSIC, and HARDROCK. WELLDATA includes borehole records for domestic, municipal, and industrial water wells; mineral exploration core holes and stratigraphic tests. OILTEST includes records...
A collection of approximately 100,000 handwritten and typewritten scout tickets from Oklahoma sorted by section-township-range, as well as a small percentage of scout tickets from nearby states.
All core samples on file at the KGS Earth Analysis Research Library with photos of core boxes by interval. Includes continuous or interval cores on file at the KGS Earth Analysis Research Library in Lexington, Kentucky. Core samples range from PreCambrian to Mesozoic in age and are derived from oil and gas wells, coal or mineral exploration wells, geotechnical wells, and hydrologic investigation wells.
The Anaconda Research Collection (ARC) holds over 80,000 inventoried specimens, 10,000 thin-sections, and some geochemical data from various mines around Montana.
A collection of field maps created by various New Jersey Geological Survey geologists from 1890-2020
Collection includes cores extracted over decades by mineral exploration firms as they completed their Maine work or otherwise released their data, covering both public and private lands that were the subject of mineral exploration. These records represent the best public collection of the major mineral exploration efforts of the 1960s-1980s. This collection of 595 scanned core records is accessible through a Google Earth application. Please contact the Maine Geological Survey to discuss access to the collection.

Records in this collection are classified into one of four categories that best characterizes the data contained within the borehole record. The classifications are: Geotechnical: Boreholes and pits created with the intent to gain a detailed understanding of the subsurface lithology and soil or rock properties therein. These records have additional data beyond lithologic descriptions including penetrometer resistance, shear and strength tests, density measurements, etc. Lithologic borings: Boreholes are drill solely for the purpose of identifying subsurface lithology. Material testing techniques were not used (or the results are not provided) to allow for a more detailed understanding of subsurface material properties....

The New Jersey Zinc Company Historical Collection contains details of mining operations at the Austinville-Ivanhoe underground lead-zinc mines located in Wythe County in southwestern Virginia from 1902 to 1981. This site also operated under the name Bertha Mineral Company. The records pertain mainly to the historic Austinville-Ivanhoe underground lead-zinc mines located in Wythe County. The site produced zinc and lead from underground mines in the historic Austinville-Ivanhoe mineral district located in Wythe County. During this nearly 80-year span of continuous mine operations near Austinville, the company also conducted base metals exploration in other regions of Virginia, including the Timberville lead-zinc...
The Nevada Bureau of Mines and Geology (NBMG) Sample Collection Database (also known as CORECUT) is the index of rock samples held by the NBMG. The database contains about 12,000 entries of which over 11,000 entries have locations in longitude and latitude (the on-line database includes only these). Access is through the NBMG main website at http://www.nbmg.unr.edu, followed by clicking on 1). "Collections", and 2). "Geologic Specimen and Geochemical Database". In 2019, NBMG began a project to photograph and scan thin sections under standard and cross polarized light. When applicable, these are now noted in the metadata records. All of the cores and cuttings are now also available in a new map web application http://nbmg.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=2b2fc33d346...
