Water resources in the vicinity of municipalities on the western Mesabi Iron Range, northeastern Minnesota
R. D. Cotter, H. L. Young, L. R. Petri, C. H. Prior
1965, Water Supply Paper 1759-B
Additional supplies of water are available near the municipalities on the western Mesabi Iron Range. Potential yields from both ground-water and surface-water sources are good. The most productive aquifers for ground-water supplies are the Biwabik Iron-Formation and the stratified glacial drift. Areas of stratified drift believed to have good water...
Water resources in the vicinity of municipalities on the west-central Mesabi Iron Range, northeastern Minnesota
R. D. Cotter, H. L. Young, L. R. Petri, C. H. Prior
1965, Water Supply Paper 1759-C
Additional supplies of water are available near the municipalities or the west-central Mesabi Iron Range. The largest sources are the ground-water aquifers in the Biwabik Iron-Formation and the stratified glacial drift. Areas of stratified drift that probably have good water potential have been outlined. Surface-water supplies are negligible in the...

Ground and surface water in the Mesabi and Vermilion Iron Range area, northeastern Minnesota
R. D. Cotter, H. L. Young, L. R. Petri, C. H. Prior
1965, Water Supply Paper 1759-A
Within the Mesabi-Vermilion Iron Range area, water of good quality is available from the Biwabik Iron-Formation, from stratified drift, and from lakes and streams. About 700 bgy (billion gallons a year) leaves the area as surface water, of which about one-third comes from ground water. Leached, oxidized, and fractured parts of...
