This collection is a compilation of reports, maps, and drill records containing geologic data from Maryland related to the occurrence potential of the 35 mineral resources identified by the U.S. Department of Interior as critical to the economic and national security of the United States (Fortier et al., 2018). The data compilation in this collection began with a USGS National Geologic and Geophysical Data Preservation Program (NGGDPP) FY2019 grant to support the process of identification and prioritization of focus areas for critical minerals.

The Maryland Geological Survey (MGS) Drill Cuttings Collection consists of washed and unwashed cuttings from drilling sites throughout Maryland. The collection includes chips from rock drillings as well as cuttings from unconsolidated Coastal Plain sediment drilling. There are approximately 2,600 boxes (15.5” x 5.5” x 3.4”) in the collection. Each box contains between 20-50 envelopes, bags, or vials of cuttings. Thanks to U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) National Geological and Geophysical Data Preservation Program (NGGDPP) grants, approximately 1,999 boxes of drill cuttings containing over 43,500 envelopes have been inventoried as of August 2021. The Drill Cuttings Collection is now primarily stored in the MGS...

This collection (known internally to Maryland Geological Survey as Component 5A) consists of 103 photo-mosaic index maps (89 unique maps plus duplicates) dating from 1955-1981. The date printed on the index map (and listed in the metadata) is the date that flying (photography) was completed for each index map. Each photo-mosaic index map shows individual aerial photographs (with Flight Lines and Frame numbers) in a particular U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) 7.5-minute or 15-minute quadrangle in Maryland, Delaware, New Jersey, Virginia, or West Virginia. These index maps are black-and-white and approximately 10 in. by 12 in. in size. This collection serves as a finding aid for a portion of the Quad-Based Aerial...
