Semiquantitative emission spectrographic analyses for 64 elements on 69 stream sediment samples and for 30 elements on 14 soil and 86 rock samples from • Dolly Sods Wilderness and vicinity, Grant, Randolph and Tucker Counties, West Virginia, are reported here in detail. Locations for all samples are given in Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) coordinates. Brief descriptions of rock samples are also included. Rocks analysed are sandstone and shale. No obviously anomalous values related to mineralized rock of economic importance are present in the data.
