Abstract

Evidence indicates that the taconite body and the rocks which surround it are of Precambrian age.The taconite body is roughly circular in shape with a diameter of a few miles and an indeterminate maximum thickness. The body was first discovered as a strong positive anomaly in a 1963 aeromagnetic survey of NW Iowa (Map 1) conducted under a contract with the Iowa Geological Survey.
