Digital representation of exposures of Precambrian bedrock in parts of Dickinson and Iron Counties, Michigan, and Florence and Marinette Counties, Wisconsin
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) conducted a program of bedrock geologic mapping in much of the central and western Upper Peninsula of Michigan from the 1940s until the late 1990s. Geologic studies in this region are hampered by a scarcity of bedrock exp |

Exposed Precambrian Bedrock in Part of Dickinson County, Michigan, and Marinette and Florence Counties, Wisconsin
Rock outcrop locations taken from geologic maps published from the 1940s until the late 1990s. Bedrock exposure locations were routinely recorded to provide both an indication of where direct observations were made, and as a guide for future investigations to expedite location of observable rock exposures. Data are provided in shapefile format. |
