Abandoned Mine Land (AML) Geochemical Data: Emery County, Utah

During August of 2014, the United States Geological Survey (USGS) collected a total of 187 surficial sediment and bedrock samples from abandoned mine wastepiles, ephemeral channels below wastepiles, nearby outcrops, and background areas representative of the undisturbed lithology within Emery County, UT. The samples were clustered into four different groups: Buckmaster Draw (BM), Dry Mesa (DM), Cow Flats (CF), and Cedar (C). These samples were sieved to obtain a less than 177 micron fraction, which was homogenized and subjected to a four acid digestion prior to analysis by Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP) methods.
