Digitized geological features include: Rio Tinto informal map units, contacts, faults, areas of gypsum outcrop, areas of breccia outcrop, limits of mapping, structural cross-section locations, visited stations, lithologies, planar measurements, linear measurements, and significant mineral occurrences"--Abstract, page 2.
