      <abstract>These data show approximate locations of mine tunnels in the Belt-Stockett-Sand Coulee area southeast of Great Falls, Montana. The data were scanned from mine blueprints and vectorized by two consulting firms, SMD Engineering and Integrated Geosciences. The data were georeferenced and georectified based on GPS contol points obtained for locations of mine entrances and based on public land survey quarter-section lines that were on the original maps. Some of the mine data are very detailed and the lines seem to represent the boundaries of all the mine corridors. Other mines seem to have data limited to lines representing centerlines of the main access tunnels. The data for the Giffen mine seem to have been distorted by some sort of coordinate rounding or generalization process. Each line has an attribute for the mine name. Detailed data exists for what appears to be the west half of the Anaconda mine, with approximate access shaft centerlines for the entire mine and other mine entrances in the Belt area named "Workings".</abstract>
      <purpose>These data were produced to support mine reclamation efforts of the Reclamation Division of the Montana Department of Environmental Quality.</purpose>
