- 1 - - 0 3 6 0 0 0 INTRODUCTION 3 0 0 0 0 The Elevation contour map of the surface of South Dakota, Black Hills inset, was created using depth and rock-type data from more than 2,800 drill holes in combination with published depths to the Precambrian basement and Precambrian rock -5 -2 0 types intersected (such as granite and schist), as well as published Precambrian structural contour data within the inset area (see SELECTED REFERENCES). For the Black Hills, where Precambrian rocks are exposed at the surface, elevation contours were 0 0 0 - 7 taken from 1:24,000 scale hypsography (digitized from digital raster graphs or DRGs). These contours were then modified based on drill-hole data in and around outcrop areas. A unique aspect of this map is the inclusion of contours in the outcrop area. 0 0 Inclusion of the contours in the outcrop areas provides a more complete perspective of the configuration of the Precambrian basement in the Black Hills area. DATA 8 The drill-hole data presented on this inset are a small subset of available data. Presented here are Precambrian intersect data from 386 drill holes and an additional 162 drill holes that do not intersect the Precambrian basement but help constrain the contour placement. Because much of the Black Hills inset is represented by outcrop (shown by the green outline), contour spacing on the Precambrian surface is tight, considerably limiting the amount of other data that can be presented on this map. The complete dataset is available for download at the Geological Survey Program, Department of Environment and Natural Resources, website. Further discussion on data sources and drill-hole location is included on the 1:500,000-scale map titled Elevation contour map of the Precambrian surface of South Dakota. <1000 !

The Geological Survey Program, Department of Environment and Natural Resources, engages in an ongoing data collection and interpretation process. An outcome of that process is to reflect those interpretations on maps such as this one. Reasonable efforts have been made to ensure that this map accurately reflects the source data used in its preparation. This map is date specific. As additional data become available, geologic interpretations may be revised and the map may be updated by the Geological Survey Program. This map should not be enlarged or otherwise used in an attempt to interpret more detail than can be seen at the 1:150,000 scale.
