Magnetotelluric sounding data, stations 1 to 12, East-Central Tooele County, Utah, 2003
Magnetotelluric (MT) sounding data collected in 2003 along a north-south profile in this area to learn whether major mining districts in the Northern Nevada Gold Province are underlain by rocks of the Archean Wyoming craton, which are known to contain orogenic gold deposits, or by accreted rocks of the Paleoproterozoic Mojave province. |

Contributions to the gold metallogeny of northern Nevada
Nevada is one of the Earth's premier gold producing regions, accounting for approximately 64 percent of the U.S and nine percent of the world total. The impact of these mines on nearby local economies and on our national balance of payments is profound, a |
