The Geological Survey publishes maps and reports on North Dakota's mineralogical, paleontological, and geochemical resources, including oil and gas, coal (lignite), uranium, clay, sand and gravel, volcanic ash, potash, and other salts. In addition to mapping subsurface resources, the Survey actively maps the surface geology throughout the state, emphasizing urban areas and identifying geohazards such as landslides.
Survey publications support the regulatory programs of the Industrial Commission and other state and federal agencies. The publications also assist mineral companies, geotechnical consulting firms, city and county governments, landowners, and the citizens of North Dakota.
