Format for data files of Magnetic susceptibility measurements on drill hole samples from the Stinkingwater mining district, Absaroka Mountains, northwestern Wyoming, M.E. Gettings/ March,2002

Data fields:
UTM easting (m), UTM northing (m), altitude (ft),K (cgs/unit mass),sigmaK (cgs/unit mass), lithology code, texture code, oxidized/enriched code, alteration class code, hole group code, hole number, sample number, 
Hg (ppm), Cu (ppm), Mo (ppm), Fe (%), Ti (%), Ag (ppm), Au (ppm)

codes:
lithology: 1-Crater Mtn dacite, 2-dike, 3-Needle Mountain granodiorite, 4-Needle Mountain granodiorite (?), 9-undetermined
texture: 1-fine grained, 2- Porphyry, 3-phaneritcic(crystalline), 9- undetermined
oxidized/enriched: oxidized-1 protoore-2 enriched-3 unknown-9
alteration class 1-propylitic, 2- phyllic, 3- potassic, 9-undetermined
hole group: N-Needle Creek, S-Stinkingwater


Data are stored in two text files, each containing 700 samples:
1) The file stwr_drillholes_data_final contains original analytic data for Hg, Cu, Mo, Fe, Ti, Ag, and Au using codes N or N( ) - not detected or not detected at limits shown; L or L( ) - detected but below limit of determination or limit shown.
2) The file alldata.numeric.final is identical to stwr_drillholes_data_final except that the "not detected" and "less than" (N and L) codes have been replaced with arbitrary numbers to allow plotting.  For gold, not detected (N or N(.05)) was assigned 0.01; less than (L or L(.05)) was assigned 0.015.
For silver, not detected (N or N(.05)) was assigned 0.01; less than (L or L(.5)) was assigned 0.45.
