Excerpt from The U. S. Geological Survey Program of 1995: Hearing Before the Subcommittee on Energy and Mineral Resources of the Committee on Resources, House of Representatives, One Hundred Fourth Congress, Second Session There should be a renewed emphasis upon geologic mapping in future Mineral resources work. High quality topographic and geo logic maps, I believe, are perhaps the greatest contribution that the usgs has ever made to the citizens of the United States. Contrary to much common belief, high quality geologic maps are not avail able for much Of the United States. Geologic mapping really can be considered as long term geologic research because it is geologic maps which are the foundation Of any exploration program no matter what commodity we are looking for today or what commodities we might be looking for in the fu ture. Just to say something about resource stewardship, our society demands resources, and the worldwide market will assure that this demand is met at some cost from some source. Any individual de posit contains a variable concentration of the desired commodity distributed throughout the body of rock. We in industry will continue to mine rock as long, and only as long, as we can make a profit at it. It is in the interest of every earth resident to assure that the maximum amount Of resource is recovered from any excavation of the earth.
