"The Wales Creek Wilderness Study Area (075-150) lies in the Garnet Geology, Energy and Mineral Resource Area nine miles north of Drummond, Montana. The Garnet Resource Area is part of the larger Missoula Resource area in the Butte BLM district. ... Based on recently concluded detailed geochemical work, previous larger-scale geochemical and geologic studies, and an impressive record of regional mining activity, the Wales Creek WSA is classified as having high potential (4D classification) for gold and base metals in its southwestern part and a moderate to low potential (3C-2C) for those commodities elsewhere. The potential for other resources is considered low"--Leaf 1.
