Industrial Mineral Assessment (IMAU) Report Maps Digital Data
Many mineral resource maps for areas of Great Britain at scales of 1:25000 and 1:50000 have been produced by the British Geological Survey. The maps are intended to be used for resource development, strategic planning, land-use planning, the indication of hazard in mined areas, environment assessment and as a teaching aid. The data was originally published in printed map form.

British Geological Survey Mineral Assessment Report Maps Digital Data. The data is supplied as ArcView shape files held on this CD in folder "arcview". These can be accessed via the example ArcView3.3 project "bgs_mar_maps.apr". There are four themes per map; Resource Block Areas, Mineral Categories, Geology and Disturbed Geology. The master data is held by BGS in DGN format as lines which may provide further information to the shapes.The original maps from which the data was generated are also held by BGS as colour raster scans in TIF format with an associated TWF georeferencing file.
