Critical Minerals in Ores WFS
This web service delivers datasets produced by the Critical Minerals Mapping Initiative (CMMI), a collaboration between Geoscience Australia (GA), the Geological Survey of Canada (GSC) and the United States Geological Survey (USGS). Data in this service includes geochemical analyses of over 7000 samples collected from or near mineral deposits from 60 countries, and mineral prospectivity models for clastic-dominated (Zn, Pb) and Mississippi Valley-type (Zn-Pb) deposits across Canada, the United States, and Australia.

- Statement
-
This web service has been created as part of a collaboration between Geoscience Australia (GA), United States Geological Survey (USGS), the Geological Survey of Canada (GSC) and the Geological Survey of Queensland (GSQ), reviewed regularly while in development. The web service was initially released in June 2021 to deliver the geochemical analyses of samples from or near mineral deposits from 60 countries. This web service was updated in February 2022 to include Mississippi Valley-type (Zn-Pb) and clastic-dominated (Zn-Pb) prospectivity potential models.
