REE and Coal Open Geodatabase Collection

The REE and Coal Open Database is an online collection of subsurface contextual data from publicly available geological, geochemical, and geospatial resources. These data align to and support execution of NETL’s REE coal assessment method. The database includes basin- and national-level spatial datasets, in addition to other non-spatial data that support the assessment approach. Data in this collection are sourced from a range of authoritative, public sources, including NETL, U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), Energy Information Administration (EIA), and state geological surveys.
