UPPER PRIEST ROADLESS AREA, IDAHO.
January 1, 1984
A mineral survey of the Upper Priest Roadless Area in northern Idaho indicates that the roadless area has little promise for the occurrence of metallic mineral or energy resources. Small amounts of zinc, lead, silver, tin, and tungsten were detected in pan concentrates of stream-sediment samples, but these metals probably were derived from weathering of scattered, sparsely mineralized quartz veins common to the region and no resource potential was identified.
