| New data needs |
Geologic mapping, and geochemical analyses. |
| Geologic mapping and modeling needs |
1:24:000 scale geologic mapping. |
| Geophysical survey and modeling needs |
Rank 1 or Rank 2 aeromagnetic and radiometric coverage. Aeromagnetic data may image mafic rocks, associated structures, and possibly alteration zones. Radiometric data can help with geologic mapping in vegetated terrane. |
| Digital elevation data needs |
Lidar complete. |
