GIS Data for the Geologic Map of the Highland West and Highland East 7.5-Minute Quadrangles, Grant and Iowa Counties, Wisconsin [dataset 1]

From the dataset abstract

The geologic map of the Highland West and Highland East 7.5-minute quadrangles includes 1:24,000-scale mapping of both surficial and bedrock geology. Highland was a long-lived and important sub-district of the Upper Mississippi lead-zinc mining area in the 19th and 20th centuries. Recent and renewed interest in the presence and distrubution of critical minerals initiated this mapping effort. The map and accompanying report present the Paleozoic bedrock stratigraphy, including structures. Includes map, 15-page report, and GIS data in the geologic map schema (GeMS) format.
