EXPLANATIONNote: Because the uranium map of Wyoming (Gregory and others, 2010) and the oil and gas fields map of Wyoming (DeBruin, 2007) were published as GIS layers,
some of the data, symbology, and many of the annotations included on this plate were taken directly from those sources.
Oil and gas wells—Labeled fields represent the 11 largest gas or oil producingfields, or both, based on cumulative production to Oct. 14, 2011. From WOGCC, 2011
Assessed resource type—See references on table 1 forUSGS oil and gas assessment units
