Description:
Mineral resource occurrence data covering the world, most thoroughly
within the U.S. This database contains the records previously
provided in the Mineral Resource Data System (MRDS) of USGS and the
Mineral Availability System/Mineral Industry Locator System
(MAS/MILS) originated in the U.S. Bureau of Mines, which is now part
of USGS.
The MRDS is a large and complex relational database developed over
several decades by hundreds of researchers and reporters. This
product is a digest in which the fields chosen are those most likely
to contain valid information.
