  Description:  Mineral Industry Location System (former U.S. Bureau of Mines) Mineral locations
    Abstract:
    This data set derived from nonconfidential the Alaska portion
      of the Minerals Availability System/Minerals Industry Location System
	  (MAS/MILS). The MAS Data Base was a working file of the 
	  former U.S. Bureau of Mines.  Quality of the 
	  information can range from preliminary, unconfirmed data 
	  to validated assessments.  

   Descriptors:
  
    Purpose:
   This data set can be used as a layer in any application concerned with
   the location and type of mineral occurrences in Alaska.
