Abstract:
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data were formerly available from the Montana State Library web site but were removed because they are potentially out of date.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.

Faults and veins from a 1:12,000 scale Anaconda Company map of Butte. Digitized at the State Library using tics created with the EMSL-LV ACS2UTM program. The coverage still needs to be adjusted to correct UTM coords. The source map was brittle blueline paper with the faults and veins added in red and blue ink. The paper 'Structure of the Butte Disctrict, MT' by John M. Proffet of the Anaconda Co. refers to this map.
