The Department of Geology and Mineral Industries (DOGAMI), a U.S. state government entity, received a $509,646 Cooperative Agreement award from the U.S. Department of the Interior U.S. Geological Survey under the Earth Mapping Resources Initiative (CFDA 15.073). The award will fund a 3-year project to conduct advanced geologic mapping and mineral resource evaluation, with a focus on characterizing the distribution of lithium and other critical minerals within the northern sector of the McDermitt Caldera in southeastern Oregon. Key deliverables include 1:24,000-scale geologic maps, cross-sections, time-rock charts, and comprehensive geochemical, geochronology, and well log databases for the project area. This work aims to improve understanding of the geologic and mineralization history of the McDermitt Caldera, which contains significant concentrations of critical minerals including lithium, the only known deposits of this kind in Oregon. The findings will aid in promoting scientific discovery, public usability, and informed decision-making related to critical mineral potential and development in the region.
