Abstract:

Surface materials, geologic formations, faults, anticlines, synclines, srikes, joints, and profile drawings for Smelter Hill, southeast of Anaconda, MT.

Imported from a DXF file, ESE map "Smelter Hill Geologic Map", #691-1177-1500, dated 8-25-93. The data also are distributed with three DXF-format cross-sectional geologic profiles of the hill and two annotation feature classes containing feature labels.

These data were formerly available from the Montana State Library web site but were removed because they are potentially out of date. Please contact the Federal Superfund Bureau of the Montana Department of Environmental Quality if you want these data so they may tell you if newer or better data are available. If the data are not available from the Department of Environmental Quality, you may request a copy from the Montana State Library data archive.
