GeoTiff grids of models of prospectivity for clastic-dominated (CD) and Mississippi Valley-type (MVT) Pb-Zn mineralization for the US and Canada (combined) and Australia that used data provided in this report are provided here. The models are the result of a study by Lawley and others (2022) that used a data-driven machine learning approach called Gradient Boosting to predict the mineral prospectivity for clastic-dominated (CD) and carbonate-hosted (MVT) deposits across the United States, Canada, and Australia. The study was part of a tri-national collaboration between the U.S. Geological Survey, the Canadian Geological Survey, and Geoscience Australia called the Critical Minerals Mapping Initiative. The original...

As a result of a Latin American Coal Assessment, the USGS published the first Coal Map of South America (Weaver and Wood, 1994) and developed a cooperative inter-American exchange of geologic information which lead to a better understanding of the potential for coal resource utilization in the western hemisphere. This coal study was started by the late Gordon H. Wood, Jr. The original compilation, completed before his death, was a result of library research and it did not include updated information from scientists and others in the coal-bearing countries of South America. During the Fall of 1991, Jean N. Weaver visited Uruguay, Argentina, Chile, Peru, Ecuador, Colombia, Venezuela, Brazil, and Bolivia. The purpose...
