This Cooperative Agreement award from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) under the National Cooperative Geologic Mapping Program (CFDA 15.810) provides $1,397,001.83 to the New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology (New Mexico Tech) to conduct geologic mapping and research in New Mexico. The project period is from October 1, 2025 to September 30, 2027. The primary activities under this award include new geologic mapping of seven 7.5-minute quadrangles and two 7.5x15-minute quadrangles in the San Juan Basin and Rio Grande Watershed regions of New Mexico at a 1:24,000 scale. The project also supports various initiatives under the U.S. GeoFramework Initiative (USGI), such as developing subsurface maps in the Rio Grande Rift, updating the stratigraphic framework for the northern San Juan Basin, and creating an induced seismicity map of southeastern New Mexico. The geologic data and maps produced through this award will provide crucial information to support decision-making by businesses, government agencies, and the public on issues related to water resources, energy and mineral resources, and geologic hazards in New Mexico.
