Description:

Abstract:

The spatial dataset for diamond-drill cores, rev_ddh, is an ArcInfo® point coverage showing the collar locations of the drillsites. All diamond-drill cores occur at a single site. The composite measured section contained in this coverage, Kellogg, consists of stratigraphic data assembled from a combination of diamond-drill cores and underground and surface measured sections.

Purpose:

This dataset was developed to provide geospatial GIS for use in future spatial analysis by a variety of users. This database is not meant to be used or displayed at any scale larger than 1:48,000 (e.g., 1:24,000 or 1:12,000).

Supplemental_Information:

The ArcInfo rev_ddh dataset consists of a point attribute table, rev_ddh.pat, that relates to the rev_ddh.ref (source reference) look-up table.

Data_Set_Credit:

Mary H. Carlson digitized, attributed, and edited the drill hole locations at a scale of 1:48,000 from Asarco company maps.

Native_Data_Set_Environment:

Microsoft Windows NT Version 4.0 (Build 1381) Service Pack 6; ESRI ArcCatalog 8.1.1.649

Data_Quality_Information:

Attribute_Accuracy:

Attribute_Accuracy_Report:

Attribute accuracy was verified by manual comparison of the source with hard copy printouts and plots.

Logical_Consistency_Report:

No duplicate features exits. Point data are represented by two sets of coordinate pairs, each with the same coordinate values.

Completeness_Report:

This diamond-drill cores spatil database was derived from maps by Asarco (1977-1984).

Positional_Accuracy:

Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:

Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:

The horizontal positional accuracy for the digital data is no better than 96 meters.

Source_Contribution:

Most of the diamond-drill cores in the rev_ddh dataset were digitized from unpublished Asarco Company paper maps. These paper maps were scanned and georectified to produce TIFF images and published as Open-File Report 01-438. Although the diamond-drill holes in rev_ddh were not digitized from the TIFF images, rather the unpublished paper maps, this source is listed here as a reference.

Process_Step:

Process_Description:

Drill holes and a measured section location of the Revett Formation were digitized from stable base (mylar) geologic maps and attributed by Mary H. Carlson (contractor). The digital linework was proofed by dropping it onto rasterized, georectified TIFF images of the original map sheets (Boleneus and others, 2001a). Mary H. Carlson (contractor) revised the linework so as to better fit the geoTIFF images.
