Geologic map with faults, along with additional scientific
information needed for mineral resource assessment (geochemical
analyses, mineral occurrences, geologic terranes, and estimated
undiscovered resources)
Purpose:
This publication attempts to apply much of the geologic,
geochemical, geophysical, and mineral occurrence information to a
single objective focused on producing a mineral resource assessment
for the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. However, the value of this
publication lies not within the results of the mineral resource
assessment nor within the interactive PDF files which can be viewed
on the screen, but within the geologic, geochemical, geophysical,
and mineral occurrence digital map coverages and databases which can
be used for their own unique applications.
