Geographic Information on New York's Wells and Mines

Mineral Resources On-line Maps

The Division of Mineral Resources database includes more than 33,000 wells and 2,500 surface mines. DEC staff use GIS software and Global Positioning Systems (GPS) equipment to map the locations accurately.

DEC's data management system supports on-line, interactive mapping of mines and regulated wells. To become familiar with this system, the user should review the Environmental Navigator Help Page and the specific information for our application. Return users can navigate directly to the Environmental Navigator for Minerals.
