Summary

This dataset includes a line shapefile of surface traces that were calculated using structural measurements taken in the Stillwater Complex, Montana (Stillwater_Complex_Surface_Traces.shp), along with a .csv file of full references for the published sources used (Stillwater_SurfaceTrace_sources.csv). The surface traces represent the lateral extension of geologic features. The structural measurements which were used to calculate the surface traces are published as a USGS data release and are available here: https://doi.org/10.5066/P93NUSCJ. The surface traces were created from the structural measurement point data using an updated version of the ArcGIS 'surface trace' tool, published as USGS Open-File Report 2019-1136, available here: [...]

Purpose

This dataset provides structural data for the Stillwater Complex, which is host to platinum group element, chromium, cobalt, and nickel mineralization. This data can be used to plot in a GIS and show the lateral extension of lithologic bedding and structural features.
