    <descript>
      <abstract>This dataset consists of point data derived from field observations, geologic logs, well data, and historic mapping data. It also consists of line data that includes interpreted contacts, faults, folds, and contour lines of the elevation of the base of the Platteville Formation. Contour lines are defined in units of feet above sea level. This dataset also includes map unit polygons and overlay polygons.</abstract>
      <purpose>This dataset was produced as part of a project to map the geology of the Stitzer and western part of the Montfort quadrangles. This area includes historic Pb-Zn mining, and has the potential to host critical minerals important to the nation's infrastructure.</purpose>
      <supplinf>Stitzer_Montfort_GeMS_07252023 is a composite geodataset that conforms to GeMS (Geologic Map Schema)--a standard format for the digital publication of geologic maps", available at http://ngmdb.usgs.gov/Info/standards/GeMS/. Metadata records associated with each element within the geodataset contain more detailed descriptions of their purposes, constituent entities, and attributes.). An OPEN shapefile versions of the dataset is also available. It consists of shapefiles, DBF files, and delimited text files and retains all information in the native geodatabase, but some programming will likely be necessary to assemble these components into usable formats. These metadata were prepared with the aid of script GeMS_FGDCMetadata.py, version of 8/21/23.</supplinf>

        <procdesc>The Montfort quadrangle was previously mapped by Carlson (1961), while the Stitzer quadrangle has not been mapped at 1:24,000 scale. This map includes both the western half of the Montfort quadrangle and the Stitzer quadrangle because a large exploratory drilling program was initiated in the southwestern corner of the Montfort quadrangle by New Jersey Zinc in the 1960s after publication of the Montfort map. The records from this drilling campaign were compiled into the unpublished Mineral Development Atlas, part of which is stored in the archives of the Wisconsin Geological and Natural History Survey. These records along with new and historic geologic mapping were used to produce a structure-contour map of the base of the Platteville Formation (feature class IsoValueLines). Bedrock contacts and structural measurements from Carlson (1961) were digitized, compiled, and used in this map. Quaternary units were not mapped by Carlson (1961), and have been added to this map.</procdesc>

      <edomv>structure contour</edomv>
      <edomvd>Bedrock: A general term for the rock, usually solid, that underlies soil or other unconsolidated, superficial material.  Surface: A two-dimensional boundary between geologic features such as formations or structures, including bedding surface and fault surface, or an imaginary surface such as a the axial surface of a fold; usually an internal boundary, rather than one occurring on the outside of a feature (Challinor, 1978, p. 302)  Contour: An imaginary line, or a line on a map or chart, that connects points of equal elevation of the land surface above or below some reference value or datum plane, generally sea level.</edomvd>
