GIS (ArcGIS or MapInfo) data sets for Central America, the Greater Antilles, Mexico, Colombia and Ecuador
Download the readme files GreaterAntillesMap readme, CentralAmericaMap readme, ColombiaMap readme, EcuadorMap readme or MexicoMap readme for a detailed database description and for pricing information.
Each database consists of modules for Geography (infrastructure, digital elevation models and shaded relief), Geology (vector files for a geologic map compiled from published sources), TS Units (a tectono-stratigraphic interpretation of the geologic map), Radiometric Dates (published radiometric dates), Prospects (metallic mineral mines and prospects), and Land Status (national parks, protected areas and metallic mineral concessions).
These databases are designed for mining and exploration companies interested in focusing quickly on 1) exploration targets with a real chance of success, and 2) acquisition candidates at every stage of development.
Multielement Geochemical Databases
Multielement geochemical data, with an emphasis on stream sediment samples, is available in vector format for Mexico, the Dominican Republic, Jamaica, Nicaragua, Panama, Ecuador and Colombia. Sample locations and geochemical analyses are captured in vector format and more countries are being added.
These multielement geochemical databases are designed to be used with ColombiaMap, MexicoMap, EcuadorMap, GreaterAntillesMap and CentralAmericaMap but they are offered separately.
Detailed descriptions of the available multielement geochemical databases are included in the readme files: click on GreaterAntillesMap readme, CentralAmericaMap readme, ColombiaMap readme, EcuadorMap readme or MexicoMap readme.

GIS databases for Colombia, Ecuador or Mexico
|
Geography, Geology, TS Units (tectono-stratigraphy), Prospects, Radiometric Dates, References and Land Status, available in ArcGIS or MapInfo format. Geochemical survey data and geophysical survey data offered separately.
The Geography, Geology, TS Units, Prospects, Radiometric Dates and Land Status modules for each of these GIS databases are also available individually, as described in the readme files. |
|
| Recursos del Caribe S.A. also offers multielement geochemical data, airborne geophysical data, and a compilation of published radiometric dates.
These databases supplement the mineral occurrence and land status datasets but are offerred separately. |
||
| Supplemental data sets are available for multielement geochemical data, airborne geophysical data, and radiometric dates.
