| Abstract | Provides access to geochemcial data from the conterminous United States. Using the GSSearch access software contained on the CD-Rom disk, users can retrieve the data by specifying sample type, quadrangle, latitude, longitude, element, element concentration range, or combinations of these and othercriteria. Data may be output to the user's system in several different formats for data analysis. |
