BRISTOL CLIFFS WILDERNESS, VERMONT.
January 1, 1984
A mineral-resource survey of the Bristol Cliffs Wilderness, Vermont, indicates that there is little promise for the occurrence of metallic mineral resources within the wilderness. The only apparent resources are nonmetallic commodities including rocks suitable for construction materials and silica sand, and small amounts of peat and sand and gravel; however, these commodities are found in abundance outside the wilderness. A potential may exist for oil and natural gas at depth, but this cannot be evaluated by the present study.
