Purpose |
This table summarizes the
textural characteristics for the samples taken within the county. Six sieves were used to determine the
textural characteristics of the deposit.
This table is a very gross indication of the textural characteristics
and should only be used as a large-scale guide. |

These numbers represent
a single drill hole within a deposit.
However, the deposit may vary in textural composition very much from
one end to the other, or the top 10 feet may be very different from the lower
10 feet. Thus, great care must be
taken when interpreting this information. |

Lineage |
The ranges of values were taken directly from sieve data tested at the MN-DNR Hibbing laboratory. A deposit may vary in textural composition very much from one end to the other, or the top 10 feet may be very different from the lower 10 feet. Thus, great care must be taken when interpreting this information. |

Overview |
The ranges of values were
derived from sieving samples from a deposit(s). However, a deposit may vary in textural composition very much
from one end to the other, or the top 10 feet may be very different from the
lower 10 feet. Thus, great care must
be taken when interpreting this information.
These data can be related to their locations, stored in the
fieldobs.shp, by relating on the ident field. |

Sampleid is used to relate
this sieve.dbf to fieldobs shapefile.
These records are drill holes, which were sampled and tested for
textural characteristics based on a sieve analysis. |
