Database

This Microsoft Access 2000 database contains most of the data gathered for this project.
Stockpile composition, sampling and other information is connected in this relational database.
This database was taken from Project 350 "Stockpile Ownership, Composition, and Use for Two
Study Areas Located Near Virginia and Calumet, Minnesota.  Details of the model along with 
diagrams of the models used to construct the database can be found in the appendices section 
of that report.

Only six of the database tables were utilized for this project.  The other tables are empty 
and remain in the database.  The tables used are: stockpile, mined/piled stockpile material, 
observation, stockpile photo location, xy coordinates, and test results-sieve.

Refer to the file 'database_metadata' for criteria and specifics on particular data fields.
