This collection includes paper originals and photocopies of reports beginning in 1936, and PDF scans of these reports, up to 1995. In more recent years, this information is available from the Wisconsin DNR via a computer database. Materials are arranged by county and PLSS locations. There are 326,385 well construction reports in this collection.

Thin sections prepared primarily in the course of research conducted by geologists of the Wisconsin Geological Survey. There appears to be a set of USGS-related thin sections, as well, but these are not evaluated at this time. Thin sections are tied to field notebooks, which are being reviewed as time allows. Certain physical collections have been located, but their geographic location is uncertain until the field notebooks can be tied to the actual thin section. We must tie physical materials to field notebooks in order to develop geographic coordinates for specific thin sections. Work to date has identified locations of physical items and is currently focused on assessing the notebooks themselves. There are 1,700...

Cores represent over 2,000 individual core sites drilled across the State of Wisconsin; stored in over 56,000 (mainly cardboard) boxes; representing approximately 650,000 linear feet of the subsurface. The Flambeau Core subcollection is approximately 3 percent of the collection of rock cores from Wisconsin. Documentation for the Wisconsin core collection is routinely updated, as information becomes available.

This collection is comprised of approximately 1,945 boxes of well cuttings from holes drilled in Grant, Iowa, and Lafayette Counties, Wisconsin by the New Jersey Zinc Company. Locations are assigned to the center of the PLSS Quarter- Quarter section from geologic logs for each set of samples.
