These agencies include: Bureau of Land Management (BLM); Department of Energy (DOE) Legacy Management; Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region 8; National Park Service; and United States Forest Service (USFS). One set of public data from the United States Geological Survey (USGS) associated with the Animas River watershed was also included. Additional abandoned mine reclamation information was provided by the Colorado Division of Reclamation Mining and Safety. Agencies responsible for the data can be contacted with questions. \nThese agencies amassed their data sets at different times over the past 30+ years. This was done using different methods, at different times and each agency has different goals and priorities regarding abandoned mine data. Therefore, it is important to note the following:\n\u2022\tThis site is designed to present a broad set of abandoned mine features, but it is not expected to represent all abandoned mine features within the State.\n\u2022\tThere will likely be duplicate records because multiple agencies may track the same features.\n\u2022\tEach agency organizes abandoned mine features and areas differently.\n\u2022\tSpatial information has varying levels of accuracy due to the various methods of data collection.\n\u2022\tInformation presented on this site may change and be updated. \n\u2022\tExact physical locations are estimated and the abandoned mine features are not visible when zoomed into a specific location. \n\nThe data presented here are not intended to be used as a tool to assess risk.

Colorado U.S. Forest Service abandoned mine land inventory by the Colorado Geological Survey, abandoned mines, Colorado<\/SPAN><\/P><\/DIV>", "Subject": "The CGS completed a field inventory of abandoned and inactive hardrock mines on USFS lands in the State between 1991 and 1999. Approximately 18,000 abandoned mine-related features were inventoried. The USFS inventory process began with an office review of existing mining and geologic literature, previous mine inventories, and current/historical maps. Mine locations from these sources were compiled onto a work map. Aerial photographs (1:24,000-scale) were examined to locate potential mine sites not identified by other sources. Water quality information was used to identify streams potentially affected by acid mine drainage or other mine-site contaminants. When the office research process was complete, geologists visited specific mine locations (Sares et. al., 2000). Additional mines not identified in the literature search were found while performing the field inventory work.\n\nInvestigated mines were grouped geographically into \u201cinventory areas\u201d that were given identification numbers based on the Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) coordinate system. An inventory area usually contained one to twenty mine features that could be grouped in relation to geographic features, such as a gulch or hillside. Mine features inventoried included adits, shafts, prospect pits, high walls, quarries, waste rock dumps, tailings, and spoils. All mine features within an inventory area were numbered sequentially (Sares et. al. 2000). Mine locations and data collected by the field geologists were entered on field forms and, subsequently, into a computer database and ArcGIS. Latitude/longitude information for each mine feature and water test were obtained by transferring mine location information from the field maps to Mylar overlays. Mine locations were then digitized from the overlays into ArcGIS (Sares et. al., 2000). Reportedly, some of the locations were also collected using a handheld GPS. \n\nWater quality data, such as pH and conductivity, were collected at all features where water was present, such as draining adits, seepage at the toe of dumps/tailings, and standing water in shafts. Water samples were collected where field tests indicated low pH and/or high conductivity, including several areas with natural acid rock drainage. Samples were analyzed for dissolved/total metals and for selected anions. The quality of any water associated with a mine feature was also assessed in the field by determining the pH, specific conductance, and physical observations. Observable characteristics were documented including precipitates and salts in the effluent drainage, opaque or cloudy water, stressed vegetation, and absence of aquatic organisms. This information was used to assign a qualitative \u201cEnvironmental Degradation Rating\u201d to the individual mine feature. Physical mine hazards were also rated in the field (Sares et. al., 2000). Additional information is available on CGS\u2019s website. \n\nThe data presented here are not intended to be used as a tool to assess risk.
