Summary

This U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) data release presents a digital database of geospatially enabled vector layers and tabular data transcribed from the geologic map of the Lake Owen quadrangle, Albany County, Wyoming, which was originally published as U.S. Geological Survey Geologic Quadrangle Map GQ-1304 (Houston and Orback, 1976). The 7.5-minute Lake Owen quadrangle is located in southeastern Wyoming approximately 25 miles (40 kilometers) southwest of Laramie in the west-central interior of southern Albany County, and covers most of the southern extent of Sheep Mountain, the southeastern extent of Centennial Valley, and a portion of the eastern Medicine Bow Mountains. This relational geodatabase, with georeferenced data layers digitized [...]

Purpose

The purpose of this data release is to produce a Geologic Map Schema (GeMS)-compliant version of the geologic map of the Lake Owen quadrangle, Albany County, Wyoming. Conversion and publication of the geologic map in modern GIS format (for example, as an ArcGIS geodatabase) is considered to be foundational and high-priority by the USGS Mineral Resources Program (MRP) to facilitate on-going research and other activities by the MRP pertaining to critical mineral deposits as well as to other geologic and geophysical mapping efforts, petrologic studies, and mineral resource assessments.
